He's resourceful and his video has nearly 5m views. I heard he made the news too so I wonder if this has moved on into a business for him.

And how's this for a plot twist, it's selfish to be poor. You can't help yourself and you can help others. And before you say "But..." libraries have free Internet, Internet has information, people can educate themselves for free (including how to eat proper food cheaply, or even grow it). Rant over.

The problem is the playing field is becoming increasing biased in favour of the few.

Originally posted by Sportsvee View PostTrue, but only because someone's family didn't do a better job. We all start exactly the same (except those with disabilities at birth). All we are capable of is eating, screaming and shitting. What happens after that is a direct result of how we are raised, and that not the government's job, but the job of those who "love" us. Societies problems solved. You're welcome.
Keep in mind my wife is from a 3rd world country and had she not obtained a university degree, she would be another person sitting at home at their sari sari store all day to earn less than a few bucks.
But that's still not the whole story. Her family fed her, her sister and brother. In the 3rd world you know who got fed as children because it's flipping obvious.
None of this stuff is an abstract concept or theory for me. I have seen it and experienced it close to home. This is how I know what is true.

Bet her parents weren't superhuman so why can't others do the same? Selfish.Last edited by PTWhatAGreatForum; 27-05-2018, 05:37 PM.
