And why poor people? Is there a poor gene now? Is someone's wallet size directly proportional to their value as a human being? Absolutely not. Many people are impoverished for reasons largely outside of their control; some people never had a chance. To say someone is lesser for the sole reason of their living below the poverty line would not have any basis in reality. The assumption that people are poor because they are somehow inherently inferior, either in terms of character or intelligence, is often a false one.
