Are you being facetious?

No, not at all. I appreciate your view, and tend that way, but I have to take care and put things on an individual basis, not as people belonging to a "class," so very easy to do, and then wash your hands of it.

I know quite a few people in the situation you describe as a class, but who would rather be otherwise. And I'll tell you, stepping on any and everyone from such origins will not cure the problem. You have to cherry-pick those you are going to condemn, and do it on a personal behavioral basis.

You need to offer a hand up to those who will take it, not a hand-out or the back of your hand indiscriminately. I hope you agree with that?

Hand ups have been offered to many people in the underclass. Usually the hand is either slapped or ignored.
