I'm with you baw. Obesity is a lifestyle decision. That is what it comes down to. No one has to be obese.

Yes, there are social classes. A classless society is impossible. If you don't like your situation, go to night school and stop making babies.

The solutions to this are generally to destroy the incentives to do better for yourself too

Not at all, but there is more to the story than the press cares to mention, like prior health issues. It sirs up a lot of folks that need to look a little deeper. Obesity plays a major role in any respiratory illness as an example. Race has nothing to do with it.

Im with you. I don’t give a frick about any of it. You get what you put in. I have zero time for people that blame their shitty life on other people or on racism or bigotry or whatever kind of bullshite culture bias or discrimination they can come up with. I don’t care. At all.

As a human being, you should have empathy for poor people who actually do everything they can to improve their lives (which of course is not all of them), and at the very least you should feel for the children that are born into poverty and have terrible childhoods.

Now whether its the governments job to take money from rich people to give to poor people is another discussion, but as a "Christian", or as a human being with a conscience, yes there should be some sort of sorrow in your heart for the less fortunate.

The news keeps telling me about how the covid is killing more poor people (particularly blacks). They tell me that working class folks are being forced back into risky jobs to service the needs of affluent white people. The poor are dying because of shitty health care, crowded living conditions, risky jobs, and the inability to save. Rich folks scooped up all the PPP money because they have resources and connections. I'm not arguing against any of those facts. I'm just tired of it. Tired of all the inequality talk that has been going on for the last 10 years. Yes, there are social classes. A classless society is impossible. If you don't like your situation, go to night school and stop making babies. I guess I'm a bad Catholic.


Nah, you're good. I couldn't give a shite less about what kind of situation someone else is in. Rich or poor, black or white, whatever descriptor you want to use, I don't give a shite. Live your life the best that you can, leave me and mine the frick alone and I promise I'll do the same for you.

Are you sure, Baw? Some people are used to doing as they please, no matter what the law says. A very small percentage of the population commits 56% of the crime.

Do you think they are social distancing when the man says to?

There’s a difference I think between being cold hearted and not caring and not being able to do anything about it.

Since you mentioned Being Catholic, I can’t help that God out me where I am. Or that I have the family and opportunities that I have.

I do try to help through community service and what not but no one person can solve all of the issues of others.

I think I’ll be tasting a “W” out of this COVID-19 mess.

Clouds can have silver linings for opportune folk.

seems like you use the term "class warfare" to disassociate with the the harsh realities the less fortunate population faces. if you truly believe the first part i quoted, you should feel bad about not caring,

Dont tell him that, he just wants to hear from his like minded republican christians that it's completely normal to not feel bad about other people suffering.

DGAF either. Don’t spit out kids you can’t support and stay in school, losers.
