WHY PEOPLE ARE POOR...






I  don't know but do you think there might be a nexus here somewhere?


VERY INTERESTING ALL THE WAY TO THE END....


10 Poorest Cities in America and how did it happen?


City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level 




1. Detroit , MI 32.5%


2. Buffalo , NY 29.9%


3. Cincinnati, OH 27.8%


4. Cleveland , OH 27.0%


5. Miami , FL 26.9%


6. St. Louis , MO 26.8%


7. El Paso , TX 26.4%


8. Milwaukee , WI 26.2%


9. Philadelphia, PA 25.1%


10. Newark , NJ 24.2%




U.S. Census Bureau, 2006 American Community Survey, August              2007


What do the top ten cities (over 250,000) with the highest poverty rate all have in common?


Detroit, MI (1st on the poverty rate list) hasn't elected a Republican mayor since 1961


Buffalo, NY (2nd) hasn't elected one since 1954


Cincinnati, OH - (3rd)..since 1984


Cleveland, OH - (4th).. since 1989


Miami, FL - (5th) has never had a Republican mayor


St. Louis, MO - (6th)..since 1949


El Paso, TX - (7th) has never had a Republican mayor


Milwaukee , WI - (8th)..since 1908


Philadelphia, PA - (9th).. since 1952


Newark, NJ - (10th)...since 1907. 


Einstein once said, 
'The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.' 


It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats ... yet they are still POOR.


"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. 


You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.       


You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.       


You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. 


You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. 


You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.       


You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves." --Abraham Lincoln


Then you have the fractional reserve banking system siphoning money out of the economy... There is no money available for them to start a business.
