“the poor have won!”

Depends on what the meaning of “won” is. How long do you think the “rich” (the top 2% or so) can keep the bubble going when 98% of the population finally decides they’re better off on welfare than working? (Oh, maybe a FEW percent will hang onto their pride, temporarily.)

It’s “unsustainable” as the Commiecrats are fond of saying about other things. Oh, and the “poor” still spend their welfare on a lot of that blasted junk food; still like to claim their status as “the poor” so the freebies keep on coming enough to give them the strength to pull that Dhimmicrat lever when elections roll around.
