    Only 25%? I guess the UK must have better support for disadvantaged families than we do in the USA.

      I’m guessing American? I mean sure, there’s some “support”, as in basically only from charities, aka government is a far-right shit show no matter the party, but shits still fucked over here too bud.

    Not surprised. The dream is dead. Late-stage capitalism is a nightmare for around half of society and the bottom is gonna keep getting lower.

      I came from a dirt poor family and did really well for myself eventually. It was only because I got extremely lucky. All of the people who outperformed me in high school are dead, in jail, or doing backbreaking labor for less than half of what I’m making.

    Using the term “feel” is another fake news white washing bullshit.

    Poor people are subject to untetnable economic and social condition.

    This is not issue of feels, this is issue of the regime subjegating poor people into wage slavery for minimal or no benefit.

    It was cute when poor’s stayed single mothers and coloureds… But that was not enough and now they are coming after “good” Americans aka whyte cucks but really just everyone who is less than affuent. So fake news got to run these clown stories to spin it up.

    Anyway, quit being poor losers, sucks to suck, hit gud.
