What yall think of this article? The poor pay in terms of everything......are more depressed, less likely to get jobs etc.
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2009240060_poor20.html
"..The poorer you are, the more things cost. More in money, time, hassle, exhaustion, menace. This is a fact of life that reality television and magazines don't often explain.
So consider this a primer on the economics of poverty.
"The poor pay more for a gallon of milk; they pay more on a capital basis for inferior housing," said Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore. "The poor and 100 million who are struggling for the middle class actually end up paying more for transportation, for housing, for health care, for mortgages. They get steered to subprime lending. ... The poor pay.."

Seems about right.

What can you do to end the hunger?
It's no surprise that many will die with the coming shortage of food
When there is no grain to feed the butchered cows
When there is nothing to feed yourselves...
Then you will see that money can't be eaten.

At least in capitalist systems. What about socialist/communist? Capitalist systems are built upon the principle that the rich at the top benefit from the losses of those below them.

I think it is meant to inspire people to aspire.
Almost makes sense when you think about it.
Imagine if the inverse was true.
