How about YOU stop being an asshole. We don’t “choose” to be poor. We have a million things getting in the fucking way constantly, which makes it impossible for us to make money. We have to pay for food, water, internet, electricity, and other shit already, and it practically eats up all of our savings at the same time we are trying to save UP money to afford a better place to live in. “Just get a job then” What if I can’t work? I have autism and have LITERALLY been deemed ‘unworkable’ by a professional doctor. I have a million things to worry about already and getting a job is NOT one of them as I can’t even work at one regardless. But yet, fucking rich people, I swear to fucking God. Specifically the ‘scumbag’ rich people. They always find ways to get out of EVERYTHING - including doing their taxes. They find legal loopholes which makes it so they don’t have to pay anything to keep living in their mansions. Guess who doesn’t get those? Families that are in a financially unstable environment. They are already struggling enough as it is and they still have to pay for fucking everything while rich people sit on their fucking asses doing nothing and never have to pay even a fucking cent! Poor families already have to deal with enough shit as it is and they literally have to worry about if they will even have enough money to put fucking food on the table for their children. Why can’t we start taxing the rich but just making it the regular cost of living and make it mandatory and not optional!? It makes me sick to see the greedy rich people getting spoiled like this and us getting absolutely no assistance! “Stop being poor”… how about stop acting like a fucking dickbag? Do you really think they choose to live like this? NO! They are poor because they are having their money ripped away from them constantly from like 10 different fucking angles all at once! Meanwhile, asshole rich people waste their goddamn money on multi-million dollar mansions and 15 fucking Lamborghini Aventadors, and they never have to worry even once. There are hundreds of contributing factors as to why people are poor: they can’t work, they got scammed, they’re having to pay a shit-ton of house expenses, something always eating up their funds, literally hundreds of things. Do you think they wanted this to happen? Absolutely not! They are already struggling enough as it is and something always gets in the fucking way and completely halts any progress! I have actually had mental breakdowns over having to worry about if we’ll even have a fucking place to live, because the last thing I wanna do is end up on the fucking streets and my family and I getting evicted from our home. Like, do you think they chose to be homeless? No, they’re homeless because they couldn’t make any money, no matter how hard they tried to. I have literally cried some times over this bullshit because I feel like my family and I are living in basically fucking poverty while everyone else seemingly has money and can flush money down the fucking toilet like this. I am serious, “Stop being poor” is such a toxic sentence, and it pisses me off when people say it. They absolutely WANT to stop being poor, but there are too many things they have to worry about, they get NO governmental assistance, and they’re always seemingly short on money no matter what they do to try and save it. Seriously, say that shit to the wrong person and you could end up with a black eye or something much worse.

Fuck that sentence and ANYONE who utters it.

    Agreed. I was thinking for a second that might actually fix them, but they probably wouldn’t be able to handle it. They’d never admit being wrong.

      They can’t handle not being able to afford their “mansions” or “Lambos”? Good. They need to start fucking working for their shit and stop being fucking babied. Me and my entire family had to work for our shit while these people sit and do absolutely fucking nothing and get paid for it. They need to start earning their bullshit, not just having it get handed to them. You want your fucking expensive supercars? You want your goddamn expensive luxury mansions with an outdoor hot tub, an arcade, and a home theater system? WORK FOR THEM AND EARN THEM.

      Maybe that will finally fix their goddamn brain.
