(227 posts)You seem to imply that I am living a middle-class existence a lot.
For example, when you said: "...your solution assumes that it is ok for our society to contain haves and have nots as a given... ".
While, what I am saying is: "When things go wrong, don't gave up"!
I have found that "Simple Kind Words" can go farther than "Empty Good Intentions"'.
Are you getting any of it, now?
Did it make you a richer man? Probably not!
Did it make you feel better, even for a brief moment, to hear somebody else say "When shit happens, don't go Ape, just make the best of it.".
Well, you tell me!
My intention here wasn't to solve Poverty. Nobody can solve Poverty: It is a given!
I only wanted to share what worked for me when dealing with Poverty.
