Inner city Blacks was a white conspiracy to invent section 8 housing to keep blacks out of the mix and segregated. And that is old news. Try another excuse.and the same theme occurs in most every nation, to varying degrees.
For example, a recent study concludes that the majority of Americans cannot even afford an emergency expense of $400.
WHat?
If they can't afford the $400 emergency expense it's because they are paying $150/mo for cable TV and $100/mo at LEAST for a smart phone w/plan.
Let alone maybe $200 a/mo for cigarettes, $100/mo for McDonalds and $50/mo for lottery tickets.
The poor in America live better than the poor virtually anywhere else on earth. Period.
Exceptions are small countries with little/no military to support and basically make their money off of investing in other economies.
As I stated, the same theme plays out in most any nation, to varying degrees.
The reason(s) for these results do not particularly matter because the fact is that this does occur.
If you were to have some need for an emergency expense of say $400 & you had no way to meet that need, I seriously doubt you would be too concerned the reason(s) you are broker than fucking sin.
Then that person is an idiot.
Sacrifice is a word 90% of Americans have lost all meaning of. If they can't buy something they want - they blame other people for it rather than getting off their dead ass and making it happen. Long term poverty in America is 60% laziness, 30% life-long bad choices and 10% outside forces. The exception to that is inner city blacks, which is more like 60% culture/30% dependency on liberal social programs/10% oustide forces.
