There are exceptions to this answer but the poor buy more by earning
more.

What about the poor who are already working, supporting 6 kids,
themselves, and their 3 parents?


The poor will remain poor as long as they are given things that
they did not earn. The poor have no business trying to keep up with the
Jones. For those that don't know how to earn and are capable, they need
to learn how.

ACK!
