“What is riskier than living poor in America? Seriously!”

I don't know. Living poor in Mexico? North Korea? China? Russia? Central America? South America? Seriously?

I think it was DeSousa who I once heard say that he had asked an immigrant friend why he liked America. The friend said it was because, in America, even the poor people are fat.

If we lived in a culture that respected life and supported the law, perhaps people wouldn’t be shot on her street corner.

How 'bout...

Living poor without the possibility of finding a job? Without the jobs, nobody gets out of poverty. And, where do the jobs come from? Government does not create jobs, and government does not create wealth, so, the question is quite simple to answer: the jobs come from those who take the risks, those being the businesspeople who do take the risks. But, something tells me that, that's something beyond the capabilities of a liberal to understand.

I said this on the earlier, original thread, but among a great many other problems, this nutty talker fails to understand the nature of term "risk" as it applies to capital and related business and personal security issues.

She's too stupid to discuss the subject, and sadly, the last to know.

I'm an entrepreneur. I went neck-deep into debt to avoid laying off my employees during the recession, and am only now starting to climb out of that (with a *lot* of luck). Some of my employees live better than me.

Today when I was in the office working on my Sunday afternoon I didn't see Obama there doing any work.

MSNBC, widely considered a heavily left-leaning news network,
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
This is, without a doubt, the ONLY thing in this whole article that is 100% correct and no discussion is necessary.

She crazy.

We have legally confiscated more money from wealthy people, and average people, and given it to the poor and the ever increasing layers of govt bureaucrats servicing the poor, than any other country on earth. And it hasn’t done crap to eliminate poverty. Libtards are unfixably stupid.

But Monica Mehta, described as a “business/finance expert,” countered that class mobility is fueled by entrepreneurs “taking risks,” and began to imply that Obama’s “You didn’t build that” speech was indicative of anti-entrepreneurial bias.

But Mehta didn’t have the opportunity to finish her thought.

“What is riskier than living poor in America?

George Bernard Shaw answered that question in “Pygmalion” (adaptation: “My Fair Lady.”)

Professor Henry Higgins takes Eliza Dolittle under his tutelage and enables her to pass for a high class person. But in the process he also imposes the expectations of that class on Eliza and her father. Having been taken with Mr. Dolittle’s fatalistic approach, he gives Dolittle an income with the proviso that he give an annual speech to an association Higgins favors.

Mr. Dolittle protests that he has been ruined - he now can’t face the risk of living in the poorhouse, which he had previously had taken for granted as inevitable. Dolittle’s insouciance evaporates once he has a chance of not going to the poorhouse - because until then there was no risk involved.

Yet another sign that Obama is toast this November....

Why would she lose it if they truly had all the confidence that their guy was on a winning streak.

Nope they're losing it because they see the polls that the politicians pay for and they're a hell of a lot more accurate then the sh!t in sh!t out polls they feed to the masses.

“What is riskier than living poor in America? Seriously! What in the world is riskier than being a poor person in America?” the host interrupted. “I live in a neighborhood where people are shot on my street corner.

The lady is not worried about the poor being in danger not having enough to eat but of the poor being in danger of being killed in their neighborhood because of the violence that occurs there daily.

But why dear lady do the poor shoot each other on your street corner?

Let me enlighten you.

The poor in America do not have to scratch out a living because in America the poor have a “Safety Net”. Only in America is obesity a health risk associated with the poor.

The social safety net in America has made possible for single mothers to have children with out support of the father of those children. Having more children has become a preferred method of increasing family income. Fatherless boys however often grow up rather wild. Without a father in the house to tame their wild inclinations boys tend to grow up with anti-social tendencies. The novel “The Lord of the Flies” illustrates the pattern of behavior I am describing.

Dear lady the poor are killing each other because the social safety net has destroyed the social fabric of the family. Boys are growing up with out fathers because the social safety net has made fathers financially unnecessary. Fathers no longer feel any responsibility to support their offspring. The honor of being a father has become the millstone that drags a young man down. Why get married and be responsible when the government will feed, cloth and house the little rug rats.

The social safety net that the dear lady want to ever expand is killing the poor and destroying society.

The reason the poor are shooting each other is because they have no jobs and therefore have nothing better to do. They don’t have jobs because they don’t need a job because the government provides them everything they need to survive.

Pare down the safety net and force the poor to provide for themselves and the violence to abate. When you work 10 or 12 hours a day to provide for you and your children you are too tried to fight and you are too tired to put up with any crap from your wild child so you stomp on him when he needs reigned in.

The social safety net is the problem not the solution.

That ugly ho don't know the difference between physical risk and business risk.

Her physical risk is self-inflicted, hanging out with the homies and rap crowd.

An embarrasing hissy fit.
