No joke...the poor are poor because they have babies before they finish college...they don’t graduate high school.....they have drug, alcohol and violence problems....they don’t stay married to the same person or get married at all....they don’t get a job and stay at it for years and years.....

No, the poor are poor because they are not smart. If a smart person has a child before they finish college they figure out a way to make it work out for them. They come up with intelligent solutions to their problems and learn from their mistakes.

The Bell Curve was universally banned by most people but the book makes a great point that when you factor in IQ, blacks and whites have very similar incomes. The common denominator in poverty was IQ, not race.

Being "poor" is a state of mind. I have heard people more than once tell me "I've been broke before but I was never poor." I understand the truth behind the words even if idiots like Samuelson can't. That blindness is their problem not mine, and it is not McCain's problem either.

And btw, "Ill-gotten gains" have no moral connection to "redistribution of wealth." This moron really should stick to Newsweak filler pieces because he doesn't do reality very well.
