The poor are just lazy and terrible with money... that's how they got there in the 1st place.

Ah, waitaminute.
I hope that was some kind of dark humor, because I think some would not only disagree, but find that to be extremely offensive.
One can generalize that perhaps the poor have less options and avenues available to them, but lazy? And terrible with money?
I know a several people right now who are very good with their money, but be it medical conditions, or being laid off in this economy, or it's the farm life, and they're generally difficult to begin with... they just struggling right now.
And they're working hard too.
America may be the land of opportunity, but as one of my Sociologist once told me, sadly, that is only an idealistic notion, not a realistic one.
