re: being poor causes bad decision making

Being a poor decision maker makes one suffer poverty. Being considered impoverished in America today is a joke with all of the welfare programs available to suck the teat of to ease your pain and bruised ego. For a brief but very telling view of poverty in BR, a single grocer was convicted of money laundering over a three year period in the hood. The amount laundered was a paltry 500 million and change. Being poor really does suck.
