Ideas conservatives have to help the poor, and help them narrow their income gap:
If YOU (as in YOU the individual) do the following:
- Stay off drugs
- Try not to have kids out of wedlock, or even in it if you can't afford them
- Don't get arrested, especially for a felony
- Stay in school and graduate high school
- Consider going to college (Yes, you MAY have to work during college to pay for it, many have before)
- Accept an entry level job (Not NBA, not rap star, not CEO right out the gate)
- Stay at entry level job and work hard
- Accept that you may have to take a job you don't want and/or like
- Accept you just may have to STAY in that job
- Accept you just MIGHT have to make a career of that job
- Meanwhile, in your spare time, pursue and aspire to the job you really want, all while keeping that bad job to make ends meet
- Keep staying off drugs
- Keep having kids only if you can afford it
- Dont' buy a house or car you can't afford
- Don't buy expensive clothes, jewelry, cell phone, TV, boat if you can't afford it
- Delay buying those luxury items or simple wants until you are stable and satisfied where you are, OR until you do reach the dream of being among the rich if everything falls into place for you.
If you follow all of the above, you're economic outlook will improve.
OH and 1 more: Try to eat right and exercise, don't be a fat ass, and you'll likely not get sick or need much healthcare, as much of America's health issues are fatness related.
There ya go. The conservative plan for success. Enjoy!
Couldn't have described my life better (except I used to smoke pot). Still the bank owns my cars and my house. I have worked since 1978 and have about $3k in non-depreciable wealth.
So I guess that your plan fails. Perhaps it is THE BIG LIE.
Or is just that the horrible crime of having smoked pot in my free time devalues the thousands of hours of hard work?
To think that you people actually have the gall to call this a 'free' country!
