34. Actually, he's right....
...except for the word "Most". But, yes, some people are poor because of the choices they make. I guess maybe you would suggest that if the damned fools would just quit giving what little they have to others they consider worse off than themselves, maybe they could have something. Let me guess, you are still hanging onto that Reagan 'Welfare Cadillac" story that was proven to be untrue, huh?
One thing the right wing bozos can never understand is that there are infinitely more people around with less than they have, but who are much happier because they know the feeling of giving and sharing. That's not exactly a Republican virtue, after all.
I wonder how much of this character's HUGE tax cut he gave to someone needy or an organization to help the needy. I doubt he wants to go THAT far in helping keep people off the Welfare rolls.
