I’m a pretty upbeat person, but there’s one thing that really gets me down: poor people. Obviously it must be boring and horrible to be poor, but for some reason they seem intent on inflicting that on all the rest of us. The clear solution, which plainly misses basically every poor person there is, is to get a well-paying job, yet they persist on not doing that.
Meanwhile, those of us who are not poor are left holding the bag, as most government-funded programs are designed to address the “needs” of our nation’s poor, leaving them apparently with sufficient surplus income to purchase cable, computers, smartphones, and cars.
In the spirit of giving and in hopes of turning around a life or two, here are some pointers for poor people that should help them get started on the right track:
- Consider moving to a different country. This would have the simultaneous benefit of increasing the average income in the U.S., and also allowing you to cash in your 401(k) and use it to buy a house, as the American dollar goes farther in other countries.
- Get a better job. If the job you have now doesn’t pay you as much money as you’d like, just get a different job that does. If you like the job you have, just ask your boss for a raise!
- Have fewer children. Children cost like a half a million dollars each when all is said and done, so if you have fewer of them you can stretch that family dollar even more.
- Make sure you have health insurance! Doctor visits add up pretty quickly, so make sure you pick up health insurance to bring those costs down. And finally:
- Cheer up! I know it’s stupid and boring to be poor, but would it kill you to put a smile on?


these are some tips and let’s hope some of the people here arent too much in love with licking their own assholes and asking the govertment for a subsidy to enjoy your wisdom. here’s one more. it has multiple part so most of you all ownt get it.
6. a) get a gun
b) get a signt that says “I am 99″
c) wat for someone to ask you why you dont look for a job
d) run with it
i dont get it…am i shooting somebody with the gun what am i doing with the gun
just put the pointy end in your mouth and pull the little stick thing.
You can have all the free speech you want as long as you don’t mind having some pepper spray mixed in with it
edit: “these are some killer tips”
So what does it mean when I read this article that’s supposed to piss me off but I find myself agreeing with everything that’s in it?
I’m no expert but I think it means you’re an asshole, Jerry.
FAG
I’m an asshole because I think it’s fair to ask the people who are receiving my charity to pitch in and try to do one or two basic things to improve their situation?
No, you’re an asshole because you deliberately turn a blind eye to the fact that there are multiple factors at play which prevent these people from doing those “one or two basic things.”
And I would argue that you’re the asshole, because you allow these people to continue using the same excuses they’ve been using for a hundred years to explain away their laziness, while my paycheck is cut in fucking half in order to fund it.
Your paycheck is a fiction. You were never going to make the salary you have been assigned, not today, not yesterday, not tomorrow. The entire economy, your expectations, your spending, all of it is based on the fact that there are taxes. Taxes are nothing new and to complain about them demonstrates your willing ignorance.
I laughed out fucking loud when I read that, and I would bet my entire “fictional” salary that you are not a business owner. The difference between what I am promised and what I receive is paid by the company that employs me; the company then has to charge its customers more for goods and services, and then those goods and services cost me more money. Higher taxes = higher cost of goods and lower available spending money. Lower taxes = lower cost of goods and more spending money. I am not complaining about a fiction, I am explaining a fucking fact.
As I slide my engorged penis effortlessly into Jerry’s wife’s puckered, furry anus, her bare feet cool against my legs, her dark hair damp with perspiration and desire, I think to myself, “you know, if they hadn’t raised the price by two cents, I might even be wearing a condom right now.”
@Rocco real mature.
As I slide my engorged penis effortlessly into 99%’s puckered, furry anus, his bare feet cool against my legs, his dark hair damp with perspiration and desire, I think to myself, “you know, if they hadn’t raised the price by two cents, I might even be wearing a condom right now.”
Jerry, after reading your posts I’m pretty sure I am in favor of retroactive abortions, starting with you.
nope, you’re just an asshole.
Jerry: do the rest of the world a favor: take a bath in your wondrous salary, and choke on it.
This country was built by the middle class. If it was built by the poor, that would mean they had jobs, and therefore have money, and are not poor: Take a bath in your wondrous ignorance, and choke on it.
@Jerry, great analysis! If, of course, money paid in taxes disappeared into thin air, which it…obviously…doesn’t.
LOL…BEARDADDY huh…
Yeah, BearDaddy. Is that a problem for you, boi?
Big LOL to all of you who think that you have a sufficient grasp of economics to understand, let alone comment on, the U.S. economy.
Big LOL to your mother who is an obese, alcoholic prostitute.
The problem is that there are to many self appointed pseudo intellectual experts such as yourself that don’t realize that they are actually less knowledgeable than their overinflated egos allow them to believe.
FIRST!!!!
There is a LOT of racism posed as classism on this page.
I prefer sexism myself but the dumbroads are always yapping in you’re ear about it, amirite?
u know it! *highfive*
*highfive*
yo yall notice how rude fucking poor black people are??? if they wouldo just cheer up we wouldnt al lbe so racist!!
Meh, I don’t really have a problem with black people. Eskimos, though, those weird motherfuckers really get me going.
Oh I know dude, right??? Eskimos, man…what is WITH those fuckin people?
They’re the worst man, the total absolute worst.
Eskimos are called inuits, retard.
Retards are called “mentally challenged,” dick.
dicks are called “penises,” asshole.
Assholes are called “anuses,” anus.
you broke the chain, Smartypants
Can we give all the homeless people jobs? Let’s start a list of job ideas now.
They can have a job sucking on DEEZ NUTS!!!
What does the job pay? I’d do it.
How about a job creeping everybody out on the bus? They seem pretty good at that.
How about a job enslaving the human race with your mind control devices? Oh wait. That’s your job!!! Bill “Big Brother” Gates is watching you!!!! That’s why you called it Windows isn’t it? You use it to peer into everyone’s personal lives and spy on them!!!!! Fascist!!!!
*FAP* *FAP* *FAP*
What’s up with poor homeless people living in the North? Why wouldn’t grab your cart of “treasures” and head south? It’s f’ing cold here….
I know, right? One thing the homeless have that they never seem to take advantage of, and it’s freedom. Go to the Keys or some shit, don’t freeze your cox off in Boston.
POOR PEOPLE ALWAYS HAVE THE BEST DRUGS BUT THEY SHOULD MOVE BACK TO POORLAND OR SHOOT LOTS OF ASIAN PEOPLE LIKE RAMBO. WE NEED A WAR TO CREATE JOBS.
Where is the popup window? I was promised there would be a pop-up window and a cake!
Where is my cake?

I take umbrage at your suggestion that poor people should have less children. The poor have just as much right to procreate as the rest of society. Some of the greatest leaders and thinkers in history have emerged from complete poverty: Abraham Lincoln, Nelson Mandela, Mohandas Ghandi, Charles Dickens, Johannes Vermeer to name a few. That’s why I only shack up with homeless vagabonds. Who knows? Maybe that scraggly drunk with piss stains on his shirt who’s keeled over behind the dumpster of cheap motel might be the father of a future Einstein or Beethoven?
umbrage? u ghay.
fuck you faggot
i take umbrage at that remark.
If we give more money to poor people, all they do is spend it on fancy athletic shoes and low-rider cars. Lets face it. Poor people are idiots. Its why they are poor.
u r all faggots
FIRST
I found out something neat today. Not all poor people are Negroes! I was downtown to get some work done at the office and I saw one of the bums sitting there with a sign that said “NATIVE AMERICAN VETERAN, OUT OF WORK”. I came up to him and said “Hey, Kemosabe, what’s up? Low on the wampum lately, are you?” Instead of saying anything civil like a real person would, he started screaming obscenities and advancing on me in a very threatening manner.
I was terrified and retreated, yelling “Me come in peace! Me bring peace pipe!” In a move far more reminiscent of the swarthy, conniving Mexican rather than the tradition of the noble red savage, the man slid out a switchblade from his back pocket and stated very clearly, “I am going to kill you.”
I did the only thing I could and screamed for help. Thankfully, there was an officer of the law not a half block away. He yelled “get down” and unloaded the entire contents of his service weapon at the spitting and slashing beast.
It was like a Western. One of the officer’s round struck the red man full on in the chest, dropping him like a sack of potatoes. He came running over; I thanked him, or tried to, only to have my congratulations rebuffed with an angry – frankly I hesitate to commit such words to print – he told me to “go fuck myself”.
After turning out the dead man’s pockets and pocketing the money the red thief had purloined from so many passerby, the officer told me to get in the fucking car (his words) and he took me downtown to our wonderful jail.
A bunch of officers asked me questions that went on for hours. They did not seem to believe my story and kept asking me to repeat what I’d said to the redskin. I told them repeatedly. Finally, with a couple of wholly unnecessary comments such as “are you for fucking real?” and “My God, I’m not sure we should let him back out on the streets, I mean, he’s a clear and present danger to himself, am I right?”, they finally let me go.
At any rate, friends, be careful. The black homeless folks will, at worst, rouse their heads to spit at you, but they go no farther. This Native American, or Mexican or whatever it was, is clearly far more motivated and far more dangerous than the average poor person. Thought you all should know.
way tl;dr
Dude, you really should have been the one shooting that Mongolian yourself. How long are liberals going to let poison like these people invade our societies and fuck our women? Don’t blame the women for their choice in animals, women can barely think for themselves at any rate. The real problem is the blacks and mexicans and those fucking chinks and Japs who want to start World War 3. I MEAN REALLY! WHEN ARE PEOPLE GOING TO WAKE UP AND REALIZE THESE FUCKERS WANT OUR JOBS, OUR WOMEN, AND THE GODDAMN ROOFS OVER OUR HEADS? DID YOU KNOW, SOME OF THESE FUCKERS CAN’T EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH? THEY CAN’T EVEN SPEAK THE TONGUE OF JESUS CHRIST AND THEY WANT TO LIVE HERE LIKE THAT’S NOT A PROBLEM. I SAY DEATH PENALTY TO ALL OF THEM.
jesus was jewish until slayed, it stands to reason he did not speak english much less a slang filled language I call american.
First.
Jesus, is this article ever preaching the truth. If you don’t have a job, that’s your fault! Since only liberals can’t find jobs these days, maybe it’s time to stop being part of that outdated and racist organization? Liberals take our jobs, spit in our faces, and use the money they get from robbing the Job Creator class to sodomize babies. Isn’t it time to stop these pigs?
Shut up
Stoopid
Thit is all your fault that ypur country has a defective
Politic system
And jesus wont save you he is
FUking dead
WAT Y u saY dis NOT COOL bro. U shuld go BACK to uR gay a$$ CHRUCH and praey to UR DUMBA$$ GOD BITHEZZ.
I think the author of this article is overlooking the valuable contributions that poor people make to society. Without poor people, who else would I perform my horrifying medical experiments on?
homie dont preach what u dont dish out. i happens to knos dat u’s a bum on da street wit no job. wai u hatin on ur own kind??? u ashamed??? dats hipocrisy yo!!!
i have no clue what the fuck u just said meant, but i have something to say…. DEEZ NUTZ!!!!
Awww, that lady in the picture looks like she’s down in the dumps =) Get it? Get it? Huh? See what I did there?
Last.
You wish.
OP is one dumb mother fucker. “Just get a job.” “Just buy a house.” “Just ask for a raise.”
Yeah, “Hey homeless guy, just get a house”.
OP I hope you fuck up someday and loose your inheritance someone must have left you.
Wait…who’s the dumb motherfucker? I’m confused.
