1. IT'S THEIR OWN FAULT!
if everybody lived in accordance with my worldview, i wouldn't have to feel any discomfort. and my comfort is the paramount consideration in EVERYTHING!!!!

6. Better to blame the rich than to feel guilty.
Of course that hatred still comes from the guilt of being rich.

2. Don't sweat it....
when people don't like me, I figure it's their loss...

Let them hate you, and go on and enjoy life. ;)

3. Ignorant belief that they are somehow responsible for their position in
life all the time really pisses me off.

5. But they are so bothersome.
Can't they go harass someone else for money?

8. Me too. Hatred of the poor is un-Christian.

"For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me." Then the righteous will answer him, saying, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?" And the King will answer them, "Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me."

Then he will say to those on his left, "Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me." Then they also will answer, saying, "Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?" Then he will answer them, saying, "Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me."

Matthew 25:35-45

13. Angers - how about infuriates!
:argh: :nuke: :mad: :grr: :mad:

Have the "anti-poor" folks ever thought, "but for the grace of _____ (insert entity) go I"?

It infuriates me and it breaks my heart. :cry:

20. Kill the Poor!
Efficiency and progress is ours once more
Now that we have the Neutron bomb
It's nice and quick and clean and gets things done
Away with excess enemy
But no less value to property
No sense in war but perfect sense at home:

The sun beams down on a brand new day
No more welfare tax to pay
Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light
Jobless millions whisked away
At last we have more room to play
All systems go to kill the poor tonight

Gonna
Kill kill kill kill Kill the poor:Tonight

Behold the sparkle of champagne
The crime rate's gone
Feel free again
O' life's a dream with you, Miss Lily White
Jane Fonda on the screen today
Convinced the liberals it's okay
So let's get dressed and dance away the night

While they:
Kill kill kill kill Kill the poor:Tonight
