America is the wealthiest nation in history? You don't mean how much the avg person has right? Cause by that metric isn't the US like 15th? What metric are you using? I mean... I'm not talking about average personal wealth, I'm talking about economic power on the macro scale. --- Be careful: I was moderated for telling people not to commit illegal acts of assault and murder.

I want to say I grew up poor, but it really wasn't a terrible situation. Sure, some birthday's and Christmas gifts were donations my parents got. We didn't do vacations. But there was always a roof over our head and food on the table, which put us in a damn good situation compared to what other poor people grew up with.

But there was always a roof over our head and food on the table, which put us in a damn good situation compared to what other poor people grew up with. That's how I felt about my childhood as well. I think my dad was disappointed it wasn't better but I don't have a lot of painful memories of having to go without.

White poor largely includes non-urban populations as well, the situations faced by the populations will of course vary greatly compared to black or Latino poor who are largely urban populations.
There is of course overlap in both directions. If you want to see what happens if people try to examine the differences simply read this topic, I believe it is obvious any attempts will be met with rejection if not outright hostility. whatevs, have your fun --- ........the ghost in the machine...

Mostly the people saying any division of white poor is inherently racist, denying privilege, simply saying they think they dont deserve it, calling them white trash, etc, etc, that occurred here without one person actually addressing the distinction.
Like I said whatever, I dont actually come here for the discussions, but it is rather silly. --- ........the ghost in the machine... IGN: Fox, FC: 5344-2646-0982 ... Copied to Clipboard!
