There are many people out there who are the working poor. They took the work they got because circumstances beyond their control. Most are hard working good people and for elitists to say they should just work more makes them ass holes.

I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. Edgar Allan Poe
