It's more than that. Look at how many of the "Working poor" are under employed by choices? Look at how many have failed to graduate High school. How many had kids they cannot afford? Made bad choice or the use of drugs or alcohol?
Add to the The minimum wage laws that require business to hire only people who will produce enough to cover that cost. Then all the other regulations on race and sexual orientation and it takes even more out of their pockets. I have a few Friends that are in the lower half of the IQ range. Hard working good people. Most have a decent quality of life and do not begrudge my success. I also have a number of people I know who had all sorts of capability and squandered it through bad choice's. And then a very few more that have it all and are on top of the world. Life is not fair. No matter what Phil and the rest of the left want it will not happen. By punishing those of use who either by Natural selection or luck or hard work got ours so that they can make it better for those that did not get the breaks is just plain arrogance. |

You have any statistics to support your claim on the single mother household position? If you don't, that's cool. That just makes it your opinion, and you're certainly entitled to it. |

Now who's generalizing? Is it your position that the poor are thieves at heart? Maybe, just maybe if we take their entitlements away some may go to work.

Not so much because it is absolutely ridiculous (which it is), but because it shows just how delusionally supercilious you really are and just how much you look down on those who are not as well off as you. When combined with this gem: Quote:
Good thing all of these helpless inferiors have people like you to stick up for them. |

Again with the fear tactics. You have no evidence to support your claim. What you do have is prejudice. You think that because they are menial laborers they are more likely to go out and commit crimes when desperate. What did they do BEFORE Minimum wage and Food stamps and section 8 housing? What you also fail to realize is those very same government programs ENABLE them to stay in those menial jobs. |

VITE1, I haven't read all that but I will
My wife was a single mother for years. She worked two jobs so she could afford a house and support her daughter. (And then I came swooping in with my fabulous hair and saved the day. ) My point is there are still responsible single parents out there. It's not as bleak as many of you here seem to think it is. Maybe I'm just not a "The glass is half empty" kinda person. |

Do you honestly think that half of the population would be starving in a gutter somewhere without a government check?? ...and yes, based on your comments it is pretty easy to see how little you think of people who are not as successful as you. You have shown time and time again that in your eyes they are helpless, inferior people who are completely incapable of succeeding without someone handing them a check.

That came apart in after 1965 ( Read the Moynihan report) Having a single mother does not drive a child to a life of crime. Be alienated from society and disconnected from the group does. Single motherhood is the single biggest contributor to it. And it is enabled by the Welfare state. |
