It's in line with this little gem:
Ashely Sanders, 20, St. Louis
Where she works: Hardee's
“I have bills to pay, and I need to provide the necessities for my son. He’s 6 months old.
“I get food stamps; they help to feed the five other adults in my household, too. I want to move out of my mom’s house, but it’s difficult to put pennies aside. I plan to return to cosmetology school, but I need to find a better job.”
You got knocked up, not married and 5 other useless adults are not working as well
Denis Belioglo, 19, Queens, N.Y.
Where he works: Telco Stores
“I came to New York from Moldova with my mother and younger brother about six months ago. We live with my grandparents. My mother is ill and can’t work. My grandmother works and my grandfather gets food stamps. I have a green card and was lucky enough to find a job as a stock attendant through the Edith and Carl Marks Jewish Community House.
“As an immigrant, getting that first job is important. It has also improved my English. If I made more money, it would be easier to go to school.”
Another useless immigrant that cannot speak english and a family that is sucking at the goverment teat.
Anita Braden, 40, Camp Hill, Pa.
Where she works: Fire Mountain Restaurant
“I’m a cashier and bakery worker in a restaurant and a single mother. Four of my five children and one grandchild live with me. I get food stamps, and I’m trying to get more hours. My boyfriend has moved in to help me. I’m always stressed. I worry about everything, and that stress gets passed on to my kids. They want to work to try and help me. It breaks my heart.”
If you cannot afford to have kids stop breeding. As ugly as you are, who would fuck you 5 times?
Kevin Meagher, 53, Austin, Tex.
Where he works: First Workers' Day Labor Center and Labor Ready
“I have a college education and then some, and I can’t find a full-time job at present. Minimum wage is not enough to have a decent standard of living in Austin. I’m lucky because I rent a room from a friend for less than the market rate. I also take part in medical studies for extra money. I never thought I’d be doing that.”
Another idiot that got a liberal arts degree and does not understand why he cannot find a job.
Amin Arnold, 25, Manhattan
Where he works: Guitar Center
“I produce electronic dance music. My goal is to be a full-time musician, but for now I work as a salesperson. New York City is a good place for an artist, but it’s extremely difficult living here. One of my colleagues is sharing a bedroom. I’m living with a family member here, but it’s still tough after I pay rent and buy food.
“I was in college until I had to drop out because of finances. There’s no way I can save to return to school and find better work.”
A black man that cannot get a free ride in college from the goverment, what did you do with the money, buy crack?
Marvin Jones, 45, Milwaukee
Where he works: McDonald's
“I’m a maintenance man at McDonald’s. When my grandbabies come over on the weekend, I spend on them, making sure that they eat and are comfortable. I eat McDonald’s the last two weeks of the month because I have no food left.”
Tell your sons or daughters to get off their ass and support their own kids, then maybe you would have enough money.
The choices all of these idiots made is the result of their own failures in life, you could increase the minium wage to $20.00 an hour and they would still be complaining because it would not be enough to support all the other useless people they are supporting.

Out of the bunch, this guy will succeed.
As long as advancement and opportunity is wealth based - and it is - to critize those that are it's victims is like blaming cancer victims for getting cancer. Yes, there are some activities we have control over that affect both our chances of getting cancer or ending up doing a minimum wage job. But, there are many more that doom some of us before we even start. And even those that should take some personal blame or responsibility STILL were not giving a equal head start with those that learned the better choices.
Regarding my term wealth based; Education and training costs money. Both for the individual and for the groups they are born into. For every individual that succeeds in spite of such handycaps, tthere are thousands if not millions that will not. We need to decide what kind of society we want and work toward getting there, as against just saying that's the way it is. I wonder how many of those now expressing draconian insensitivity would have felt if they were forced to relive the difficulties some of their predicessors (the Irish and Jews jump to mind) had to overcome for even a more or less equal chance at the starting line.
Until we can make opportunities more fair, we should stop treating those on the bottom of the economic scale as if THEY are always responsible for being there. If we want those jobs preformed by human beings, the LEAST we can do is assure they are paid a minimum wage that allows them some degree of an acceptable standard of living. And as long as any of us are going to go on blaming the victims, we should also provide them with a hand up they can take if they are willing to work for it. It's still not EQUAL OPPORTUNITY, as all the statistics show the rich getting richer and everyone else losing ground, but it would be MORE fair.
Maybe a higher wage above and beyond that minimally necessary to live on that would enable them to PAY for that better education or training? Maybe publicly (100%) funded education and/or training? But to blame the economic wage slaves for their own slavery is NOT what I want out country to be about. We can do better!

If only you liberals ponied up out of your own pockets for those things you claim to care so deeply about. There is nothing admirable about calling for your fellow citizens to assuage your conscience. Dig deep. Stop talking. Start doing.
You took slaves and put them in ghettos, then mock them for not matching your Lilly white silver spooned ass!
Stay classy ila!
I cannot fathom a life filled with so much ignorance, hatred and bigotry.

sorry puddin that is YOUR legacy. my ancestors weren't even here. in fact my ancestors dealt with being slaves as well. they just haven't cried victims like some have. maybe my ancestors are built of stronger stock, I don't know
don't try to project your guilt onto me. I have nothing to feel guilty about with regards to slavery. Not a damn fucking thing. I never owned a slave. My ancestors never owned a slave.
Your family and your party not only owned them, they created the KKK to keep blacks down after Lincoln freed those negroes. Now kindly go fuck yourself
