I think because of that, people see the poor as lazy and not willing to work, rather than thinking that the system is broken and these people truly need help. Additionally, people feel less empathy towards the poor for some reason or another. They have it in their heads that the poor don't deserve help.
Obviously, this is a personal view that I haven't indepth looked in to.
If only it were that simple. The cunts of the upper 1% are out there deliberately outsourcing jobs and trying to drive more people into poverty where they can be kept in line by Draconian laws enforced by thug cops who are hired to protect the propertied classes.
