Weird that you think people blame you personally for them being poor.
I didn't say that, did I.

You said it wasn't your fault, as if someone accused you of making them poor. Otherwise, why would you feel the need to absolve yourself of blame?

Thanks boo. Just proving that you can spend less quite easily. It's called living within ones means.
Instead of steak and lobster or carry out, sandwiches for lunch and dinner and eggs for breakfast.
It's quite easy to live off of $50 a week in food.

This assumes that every American makes enough money to pay for everything, which is obviously not the case.

Maybe for one or 2 people but not for a family with kids (not infants who can breastfeed).

I said it isn't my fault, as in I shouldn't have to pay for it, because I do.
This isn't hard stuff here.

Having kids you can't afford would be living outside ones means. No?
Make good life choices. Spend what you have, not what you may have later. It's quite simple.

People exist who work and can't afford rent, groceries, utilities AND health care. I don't understand why y'all are so adamant that people can't afford it because they buy garbage instead. That might be true for some people, but to claim that EVERYONE who is poor is poor because they don't work enough or buy too much junk food is just not true.

Making enough to pay for everything isn't necessary.

But it's not that simple. Good life choices are relative. To some, finishing high school is a good life choice and college isn't even a possibility. Not everyone is exactly like you. Step outside of your little bubble and understand that people have different circumstances than the ones you grew up in.

That's a lie. If you get more money than you did the year before it is NOT a cut, it is a Democrat scare tactic.

Learn an in demand skill. Excuses are like assholes. Everyone has one and they all stink

This isn't something new. I won't take credit.

Not having kids until you can afford them is BEYOND simple.
Not buying the newest xyz is super easy. Buying eggs and not steak is simple as picking up eggs and not steak.
It's EXTREMELY easy to live within ones means. It all amounts to personal responsibility and correct choices.

Yep. The kid who doesn't have literate parents and therefore had no one to read him or help him with homework and reads at a kindergarten level needs to stop making excuses and teach himself how to read so he can maybe make more than minimum wage some day.

If only there was an option for that kid to receive free education.

Good thing that "illiterate" can work his iPhone perfectly fine. Weird... There's tons of free resources to teach damn near anything for free on that iPhone.
Oh and those lovely libraries. And school.
Keep making excuses with imaginary strawman.
