What.... don't you know the governments definition of poverty? Its pathetic. Prices going up including the price of a pay phone is going to make the poor bitter. Wonder why we now see more shootings and angry people? Its because we won't take this forever and eventually there will be one big snap and everyone will go nuts.

What they should do is say a realistic poverty level and have welfare payout that much. If that puts the government under then they must be in the wrong business. Trying to help the rich get richer and forgetting to even clean our sidewalks so the person who can't afford to drive has to walk on the road. Even our children are being forgotten with increasing costs of sports and activities. Don't they realize if they put some care into the health of our people we wouldn't be straining our health care system? The strain comes from people who don't know how to take care of themselves and from the fact the government and health care don't care to help keep people healthy. Its just another business.

This can go on. But for now I'll just say "Vive le revolution!"
