I know people who live like this and they do not go out to the restaurants I do, or have the cars I do. Most times they have a junker car that doesn't even run most times. Who wants this?? I've been there. Why do people want to live like this??

I consider myself mid class, hoping to be MORE class. Striving to be better than accepting substandard. WHY do these people willingly accept less????

Welfare recipients don’t just drive old beaters and eat frugally.

If you want to see some nice cars drive over to the welfare office. There are Escalades, Mercedes, and other high end cars.

Talk to people who work in grocery stores and restaurants about the use of EBT cards there. Yes, restaurants take food stamps!

Life is good if you are getting free rent, free food, free cars, free gasoline, free AAA, free cell phone service - plus crazy disability.

Oh the burden they must carrying by accepting less. So there is nothing wrong here except their lack ambition?

Try this mental exercise...rank lifestyle by ‘effort versus reward’. You might find that these people are very smart indeed. They have all the necessities of life and then some with little to no effort.
