Damn WTF, get a grip on reality. I said the opposite. From the middle class upwards Americans are as well off as anyone, on average. Not so for the poor.
That said I agree with Jacuzzme and texassapper. I’ve “transversed” among the really poor in third world countries. And Americans, all Americans, are pretty well off.

Are you now arguing the DeSantis should stop giving money to the poor to offset inflation.
Maybe you, taxassapoer and Jacuzzman can go live out on the streets for a year or two and report back to me.

Again, get a grip on reality. I clearly said DeSantis was right to give the money to the less fortunate with children, to offset child poverty.

american poor, compared to the poor of the world, are rich
but the children of the poor here do still suffer
and sometimes suffer mightily although your life as a poor kid is what you know and you deal with it and generally the effect on you isnt near what someone else looking in from the outside might imagine

you are continuing to lie about this
ive already told you that
i will repeat it
you obviously have either misinterpreted his meaning and intent or purposely twisted it into the idea that he says he is fighting inflation by giving out the money
to aid his citizens affected by the biden inflation is much different than cause or add to the cause [of inflation] as you indicated in your ramp down multiple choice misdirection
the whole thing is part and parcel of the same dilemma we all find ourselves in, accept some small vote buying payoff, which yes adds to our sorry state, or not accept it when all others do knowing that not accepting it doesn't slow nor stop or have one tad of effect on our decline by doing so
so your multiple choice misdirection has no validity
all desantis is doing is aiding his citizens in the defined absolute state and environment in which he operates

Agreed. The person in my small high school graduating class who arguably did the best in life came from a dirt poor background. He had a single mother with 6 kids. That probably actually helped him later in life.

The reason I say “arguably” is because by some standards I did the best in my class. For example I’ve probably banged more hookers than anybody else.

poor kids are all different, well just like everyone is
and success can be measured in many different ways
however the intelligence bell curve does slide a bit to the left for those in that environment
being a product of having nothing growing up, including no family, myself, i understand it all
as far as you banging more hookers than most, the one thing about that to me is that when you are with one, theres no job to be done to get to that position, theres not any requirement placed on you for that time, and its a freedom from responsibility...you dont have to do anything but be nice and if turns out that i'm the sucker in some situation, so be it

I agree with the whole post. And banging hookers isn’t an accomplishment. But hey, I’m scraping for some self esteem, something I’ve done better in this life than others (just kidding)

Only because Chung Tran and Hunter Biden were not in your class.

There I fixed your omission of Trumps responsibility for inflation.
So your excuse is "Everyone else is doing it...." thank you for your honesty valued poster.
I will answer your excuse for DeSantis by explaining that all charity is justified by those giving it.
That is/was not my point.
My slippery slope scenario is in fact pertinent.
We all could justify giving away free money to our favorite cause.
My point is that if you add all our justifiable charities together...and continually give them money to
1) Buy their vote
2) Adjust for the inflation that the first 3 money give aways you've already given them.
PS
When the fuck are you going to quit this poor poor pitiful me act?
