[The Cobalt Sieg]

As I have stated before, I am simply after people's opinions.
As far as official statistics, I wish I had some, but I cant seem to find any on Google. I apologize and must therefore admit that anything I believe or theorize is based purely on speculation.
When I say that I believe that the majority of the poor and destitute are in their current situations because they made poor choices in life, I am referring to having children when they couldnt support them, dropping out of highschool, pursuing drugs and alcohol, etc. etc.
I am not so foolish as to believe that these poor choices apply to all of the lower class, but I must attribute these factors to a wide range of the population.

As far as race is a factor, I must say I do not believe that race is any measure of a man. Only culture.
In a culture that glorifies crimes, drugs, dropping out, permiscuality, and godlessness, I must attribute a high-concentration of low economics to those pitiful upbringings. In short, it is not the race of a person that ruins them in this country, but conformity to pop-culture.

As always, I appreciate the replies. I hope your thanksgiving was wondrous.
