I suspect you haven't spent much time around poor people; if you did -- and if you have any ability to look at their situation objectively -- you will quickly realize that nearly all of them are poor because they are (or have been)
lazy when it comes to doing the sort of things necessary to lift themselves out of poverty.
There are the "working poor" -- I've been in that position myself -- but for such people, poorness is just a temporary condition that is corrected through hard work.
