I always hate it when we talk about the poor and some jackoffs blather about the terminally lazy.
Why? Because those chucklefucks make it seem like 95% of the poor are those "always makes bad choices, never works, etc, etc".
What use is statistics when you can make a lazy anecdote about one person as the whole model of why we should limit welfare or why we should revile the poor. The children of the poor still starve. The cycle of poverty continues. But hey! As long as I tell the story of my useless, good-for-nothing cousin I can keep my own masturbatory sense of position in the world, even though it contributed nothing towards a solution, ideology or methodology.
Really - what did it accomplish other than solidify what someone already wanted to hear: "The poor don't deserve help because there are eternally poor people by their own hand"?
It's despicable. Socially acceptable but despicable nonetheless.
