Internet comment buddy D. Sidhe has posted a beautiful (in its horror) description of the agonies of being a member of the working poor, in response to an exceptional HTML Mencken destruction of National Review editor Rich Lowry @ Sadly, No!, which quoted Lowry's recitation of the usual "poverty is your fault, you lazy (insert derogatory term for any non-white group here)" theme so popular w/ those who suck at the teats of the wealthy & powerful. Poverty in America is primarily a cultural phenomenon, driven by a shattered work ethic and sexual irresponsibility. Child poverty would be nearly obliterated if every household had one adult working full time and married parents.
Sure, Rich. That's all it takes. Marriage & a minimum-wage job. Thanks for the advice. Don't ever let us catch you where Just Another Blog™ can take a swing at you. The Editor will do the job Al Franken wanted to do on you, but you were too cowardly to face, you faux macho punk. Pardon us while we expel some bile. Where's that bucket?
