"No more talking about the homeless"

[Wabbit]

For one they make a great scape goat for others. For some reason people need\want scapegoats. Every group has them, even down to your friends and family. Why do people like to scapegoat so much? I guess that's kinda rhetorical, but there is a big part of me that doesn't understand the necessity of it. Scapegoats are useful I guess, they make great distractions and are useful in showing the masses what happens to a person if they don't toe the line. The US is a class based society, just like the UK. Although over there they know it, here in the States the indoctrination is that there are no differences in classes, everyone is the same. If you're poor it's your own dam fault because you don't work hard enough. If your a drunk it's because you're a lazy piece of shit who wants to pass out in alleys. There is little understanding and even less empathy for the less fortunate. I'm not good with explaining stuff, but I try.

What do you think of the quote below? Is it true?

“If you are born poor its not your mistake, But if you die poor its your mistake.”
