Poverty Exists To Make You Feel Powerful & Prosperous: It's A Damn Good Show

"You get so you don't even notice the half-dead vagrants on the street. They're only dirty ghosts. The ones who send shivers down your spine are the unemployed who aren't weak yet. They still can fight and run when they want to. They still think, and they know they hate you. You won't be a pretty sight if they go for you. When you're out walking you look at the men for signs of lingering health and obvious hatred. You even watch the fallen ones who might make a last move. Who might claw your ankle and take you down."

Ouch.
Yeah, some of us (like me) need to start putting their money where their mouths are.
Or, you could be like surbanites, and just move away from the ugly poor people.
Then, you don't have to think about them at all.
I have this vague notion/hunch that all of America's unemployed together would make a great National Guard.
Ha!
THAT is a good idea. Because between the mental illness, drug abuse, and overall depleted human nature of a group of forgotten people, we'd get some killer instincts going.
Hmm. I'm starting to think they'd make pretty good Marines.
