[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1536313, member: 19397"] I have not done those things. However, I work in one of the poorest communities in the state, and live in one of the poorer counties. I have also taught in a very impoverished area. We see it all here, but not like what the ER does. More than drugged out parents, it's the parents dressed to the nines while their kids are in sweatpants that really gets me going. The Parks and Rec program here does do free lunches all summer. We have several food banks in the "big city" and I believe there are one in almost every town surrounding it. I'm lucky that I have not had to utilize those places. I don't believe all people are lazy, though, or on dope, thieves, welfare scum, cheating the system, etc. A lot of poor folks are there b/c of disability, or other reasons that may not be visible to the casual observer. Unfortunately, life is not black and white, that would be too easy. [/QUOTE]
