GOP no longer a political party ... it's a radical insurgency!

I was never about that and never will be. I do, however; take a dim view of people who begrudge others who have so little.

I know of no one who begrudges people who have so little through no fault of their own.

REASONABLE people justifiably begrudge people who have little through their own bad decisions.

Bullshit! You have no idea what these people's stories are and even if you did you wouldn't care. You'd find some way to say they could have done this or that without ever walking in their shoes. You just make judgements [judgments] based on your skewed perception as to why people are poor.

What percentage of households exist only on the income of one worker making minimum wage?

What is the average household income where one of the works earns minimum wage?

What is my "skewed perception" as to why people are poor?  Lack of education?  Substance abuse?  Alcoholism?  Working the system?

None of which matters at all to Semi-sane "I know NOSSSING!" Markle.  Face it, if the person isn't a white Christian and filthy rich, Markle sees him the way a leech sees someone in the swamp.   Reality.
