I believe he called them "food chillin motherf*ckers" I mean really!? Are we going to begrudge poor people refrigerators? Sure millions of people live without them in the world but come on! <br /><br />I also have to laugh about the TV thing. I have three color TVs in my house and all of them are so old that they are nearly useless in that they can't pick up the free broadcast channels anymore. I tried to donate them to a local charity that gives household items to poor people and they refused them because they have too many TV sets! (They did take my old VCR and tapes though).NoNamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14525122106635914532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-46069707956786529522011-09-16T06:43:55.698-07:002011-09-16T06:43:55.698-07:00I'd be happy to trade my situation with some p...I'd be happy to trade my situation with some poor, overtaxed billionaire.

I just wonder how this billionaire would like getting up at 430 in the morning to go to work for a megacorporation?vilstefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183356136648221026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-61339609320338536382011-09-16T05:31:41.924-07:002011-09-16T05:31:41.924-07:00Yes, the poor live like kings of old, which is how...Yes, the poor live like kings of old, which is how the Right excuses its aim of making America the poorest country in the world.Nangleatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908938252272172718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-77708010278174009892011-09-15T21:52:12.181-07:002011-09-15T21:52:12.181-07:00Plus they have a TV.
