You've already agreed that the vast majority of "the poor" are poor because of
poor choices. Let them sink.

If you're serious with that statement, then it's one of the main
reasons why you and me are constantly butting heads.

Of *course* I'm serious. If people make bad choices, why should I constantly
bail them out? You act like Greece and wonder why I act like Germany?

I could appropriately swear at you at this point, but I suspect you
might just be trying for a reaction.

Go right ahead.

Morally, there's a big difference between someone who makes an honest
mistake and has to pay for it and someone who does something really
stupid and has to pay for it.

What is your "honest mistake"? Forgetting to go to high school? Getting
their 17YO girlfriend pregnant? Not bothering to get and keep a job? Drugs?

I really have to wonder how you would react if you made some
relatively dumb mistake and it cost you everything. You wouldn't have
the mentality to survive it.

You're an idiot. We already agreed that they made poor choices (plural). You
really are another Greece.
