you're the last one to get stuff
you've got to buy your own clothes that sadly are no longer trendy among your peers so you get ostracised
you can't pay everyone's round
most of the time you can't drink coffee with pals since you're starvibg and you put all of your money for the next 5 weeks into a pair of cheap jeans

Not yet, but soon.
The poor should be eliminated. Rounded up and euthanized for the good of society.
>>769139924
Good thing literally no one listens to you, your advice sucks and lacks any sort of explanation for such a theory.
It depends if you realize you're the poor kid or if you just think something is wrong with you and blame yourself for not having social skills, wearing the right clothes, or being popular.
>>769139975
You're a burden on society, you're largely a bunch of idiots who think things like personal injury payouts and the lottery are like graduating college.
You're the scum of the earth.

there's nothing like seeing poor people at the local 711 crowding around the lottery machine, their hands shaking, irritation in their voices while people who are making real purchases are served first. The poverty-striken gambling addicts must wait for their betters are tended to.
And if you stick around, you can see the bitter disappointment in their faces when they lose time after time. And the brief elation at finally winning five dollars. Which they promptly spend on losing lottery tickets.

>>769140865
No, the poor are cremated because they can't afford burials.
They should be shredded up and used as fertilizer for organic vegetables at whole foods. They can charge a little more per item for it being "all natural"
Although, there is the possibility the meth in their system may taint the vegetables. But those can be given to the laborers.

>>769141593
So? You're older now, find others who will love you. You sound stupid.
>>769141185
Because their betters are purchasing things like food, albeit crappy food. The poor are merely throwing their money away on lottery tickets.
There's a reason they separate the lottery cash register from regular purchases. a) they're better people and they're making smarter purchases. and b) they know the poor will stay there waiting because they have no other options. They'd stay there even if the cashier spit in their face. Because they're poor and stupid.
>>769140753
poor people are poor because they make stupid decisions with money, i was on minimum wage for a while and it was a lot of money to live on, but thats because i dont have kids and i dont drink or gamble or use it for anything frivolous.

ITT: kids with no real life experience forever sucking on their mom's teat
-you get picked on because you have no access to warm water and you smell, get to bathe like once a week
-you get picked on because you always wear same clothes, even when you get new ones, they say they're the old ones because they're similar
-you're the only kid without a cell phone so even albanian refugees get to shit on you because of that
-you have to walk home 15 km because your useless mother doesn't pick up the phone when you call home from the library because the school bus driver got this great idea to start leaving 20 minutes early because sometimes two last classes are combined (no break) and some of the kids get off school earlier
-your dad goes into the boiler room with your jacket making it smell like death the day before you jump into a bus to travel 3 hrs to go meet this chick who you have been chatting with online so that the first thing she can say to you is how horrible you smell
-every hr or so you go to the kitchen (where the floor has been torn open due to toxic mold) and have a teaspoon of syrup, because it is the only thing in the cupboard and you don't want to die of hunger, your little sister eats platefuls of ketchup, because that's the only thing in the fridge
-you go from being 190 cm and 75kg to weighing only 50-55 kg when you lay in your bed without access to food during the summer break, your parents quit looking at you
-you lose your capacity for lucid thought and rationality due to low amino acid levels from starvation
-you are taken to a fucking nutrition therapist with your parents who are there to bullshit about "having taken a free day from work to be there" (neither of these cunts work) and have to hear about how "if kids just wont eat" and listen to this idiot just list foods that can be eaten... "you can eat soy milk", "you can eat..."
I can't eat shit
>>769141797
cont.
-you haven't bathed in many months and kids in college literally run away from you in terror, this is a punishment for you not mowing the lawn that has one meter grass and the lawn mower simply turns off if you push it over 1 meter tall hay...
-you lay in your bed, dying, and you say "im not going to school and you cunts stfu or im cutting my wrists i have a fucking knive"
-your parents get divorced
-live with mom, eligible for student allowance
(a thing in eu, around 200€/month) because the city doesn't know you don't live alone, your idiot mom goes to an ATM and steals as much of your money as she can withdraw

i was poor but also atleast 1 head taller than my peers

>>769141653
>The poor are merely throwing their money away on lottery tickets.
I was under the impression the point of money is to buy whatever you want with it? Also, the lottery was designed to prey upon the civilians. Some develop obvious addictions and everyone knows it's a thing and no one does anything to stop it. Same with other addictions that gas station provides.
>>769141708
That's not always true, you're not looking at a different perspective.
>>769141714
That makes sense, it is pretty cheap beer.
>>769141717
If you want your family and loved ones to pay thousands of dollars for a box no one is going to see, then bury it, you're obviously really bad with money.
I grew up as the poor kid in school. Parents didn't have much and still did the best in raising me and my sister. When I went to my 2nd year in highscool dad got a new job and everything got better. Now I'm 26 and I paid my parents debts of and gave them a better life. You can literally go from poor to rich if you do effort.

42 here. Pretty much totally self-made.
The poor are scum. There's no difference between them and niggers. They're loud, stupid and entitled. They're a drain on all of us. When some fat green haired SJW says "what, we should cut social programs so a single mother and her 3 kids have to starve?" I want to say "Yes" So much, but I'd have some asshole with their phone out and i'd be harassed by the same mob that are now actively harassing that kike in NY for calling out the spics who won't learn basic english.
So in lieu of saying it, I vote for and give money to candidates who slowly take away their pity money.

It is the point of money to spend it on what they want. But they spend it on things that ensure they're going to be useless 3rd class citizens.
And I wouldn't call poor people Civilians. They're barely citizens. Shit, they're barely people.

That's ironic coming from a "42 year old", because anyone up to that age or past it prepares for disability once their bodies give out. And since you want to cut off people's only way of surviving well, hope you have a gun, because crime will increase dramatically.
>>769141346
I'm supposed to get bumped to 100k next year and I'm contemplating buying a trailer because I feel stupid putting $900/mo in rent down the drain. At least I could pay off a trailer pretty quick, save up for a down payment, sell the trailer and get a decent house.

there's always those that abuse the system, but to say flat out that all the poor are stupid and entitled and just money grabbing trying to freeload off society is a lie people tell themselves to justify their greed.
Benevolence and compassion aside, we pay taxes that fund social assistance programs. If you cut all those programs and get your tax rate reduced, how much more money do you think you'll get? And how much would crime increase to decrease your quality of life?

>>769143215
I'm on SSI too due to mental illness, I do have my own place. I get laid when I want because I met a woman who was going through a bad marriage and I let her stay with me and she puts out when I want her to. She also works and gives me 25% per paycheck. It's been 13 months since she's moved in and I have no complaints.
Growing up I saved all my money. I didn't want the fancy things everyone else had. Had a good savings but have since been spending it on my education. I hate seeing my coworkers with nice things while I'm scraping along with the essentials. I live on my own while most of them love off mommy's teat. Luckily I'll have a degree soon. Should I be sad about not having things like others?

You take two identical twins that were separated at birth and feed them an IQ test. Their tests correlate with each other at .76. For reference, if someone takes the same IQ test twice, his score will correlate with itself at .85.

I'm too selfish to have a family.
Sure, it's difficult to make large scale statements. But think of it like this: while there are some good black people, like Neil Degrasse Tyson and the like, the majority are a bunch of stupid thieving murdering piss ignorant niggers. And while it's true a few bad apples don't spoil the bunch, a couple good ones don't redeem the rest or make having the whole around worthwhile.
The same applies to poor people. It's better to just get rid of them all.

I get the maximum amount from SSI due to my illness ($735). I rent an apartment that the rent is only $415 and it's in a good area (apartment is privately owned by a family who bought the building from a bank). Water is free (so no sewer and plenty of hot water) I just buy filters for the water I want to drink. I also get food stamps instantly because I am on SSI. I pay for internet which is $77. Electricity is around on average less than $30 but during cold and hot days it bounces around but I try to be disciplined about that. (I can walk you through that in another post if you want energy saving tips)
So after my rent, and the bills I have $200 of spending money. Plus with the woman who lives with me giving me 25% per paycheck that equals to around on average $200 of extra income giving me $400 dollars of spending money. I use that money for things we need like more filters, decorative things, video game subscriptions and recently got myself a crock pot, pizza cooker (so I don't need to run the oven in this weather).
I live in America, midwest region

Like what though? Are you saying they feed each other the answers with telepathy?
But okay, you don't like twin studies. How about the Minnesota transracial adoption study? You take adopted blacks, adopted whites, and adopted black-white hybrids.
White people are one set of genes, black people are another set of genes. When you racemix and get a hybrid baby, his skin color is going to be halfway between black parent and the white parent, because skin color is a function of genetics. Similarly when you racemix and get a hybrid baby, if IQ is a function of genetics, we would expect his IQ score to be halfway between the black parent and the white parent. This is what is shown by experiment.

Looks like a really satisfying thing to pull out
>>769145056
No, because there are rich assholes and crimelords. Real druglords never touch the stuff in their life. They're the ones supplying the weak willed crack, steroids and anything else they want. They have plenty of money and probably don't live in shit areas. The rich pray on the weak and the desperate to boost and increase their own status like stepping stones. Simple as that.

I'm pretty sure that would disqualify them from the study.
>Are they victims of peer pressure and refuse to learn things?
This isn't academic performance; it's an IQ test. It tests pattern recognition and other cognitive functions. You don't actually have to know anything to take these things.

>I'm pretty sure that would disqualify them from the study.
Somethings are not discovered if a child is naturally being a child or they have ADD or ADHD.
>This isn't academic performance; it's an IQ test. It tests pattern recognition and other cognitive functions. You don't actually have to know anything to take these things.
IQ tests do have academic questions too anon. You actually have to know a lot of things in order to take some sort of IQ test. You have to know how to read and know numbers first of all.

Comparing your shitty situation to someone else's shittier situation doesn't actually make you're problem any better. The starving kid in Africa doesn't eat any better because you are your broccoli.

i was just having a convo with old high school friends and we were talking about some "cool" kid at our school who had "coke bottle glasses". the comical old man black-framed thick lens glasses. he wore them because he was poor as fuck.
reminded me of military issued glasses but with 1/4" thick lenses.
what was it like for me being poor when i went to school.
i started working at 15 so i could support myself so i wouldn't burden my parents who could barely afford the $0.40 reduced lunches.
i didn't get a car until i took over payments from my older sisters car. payed $7,000 on a 5 year old car. not bad. probably saved me $3k.
>>769138865
i dont fucking know loser
>>769145810
The problem is that you have neither and try to debate on a subject which requires both.
>>769146181
Whatever you say anon. Just because I'm not rich doesn't mean I'm not smart. I conceded that I don't have book smarts but I have plenty of common sense, such seems to be lacking these days
>>769143653
u mad bro
I went to a poor elementary school and it wasn't a big deal. Everyone wore ratty clothes. When I got into middle school and high school with the richer kids, I was remorselessly picked on. I got into so many fights that I'm lucky to have not been expelled. I always got blamed for starting them, but the first punch was nearly always thrown by the rich douche that was starting shit that day. I finally got a break when I was so fed up I kicked this kid in the head on the ground. No one told and no one messed with me after that, but I must have been in 15-20 fights before that.
I hate those rich fucking scumbags until this day. I am as wealthy or wealthier than the lot of them now, but I love when I see them in the papers for drug charges or whatever else. Nothing delights me more than someone immersed in economic privilege who manages to fuck their life up anyway. Rich kids are a special kind of retarded.
>>769146695
If you had any shred of common sense you'd know why you're not rich or even middle class. Tell me, what type of job/career do you have? If you lie, you're only proving my point.
>>769145545
How would disabilities and peer pressure explain why the performance of black-white hybrid children is exactly halfway in the middle of black performance and white performance?
>>769146745
Was poor, had very good grades, went to a prestigious high school. Most of rich kids are now working in retail or undergoing rehab, since financial crisis of 2008 wiped out their parents' bank accounts. Feels good man
>>769146861
Because it could cause the test to be inconclusive
>>769145053
>There's literally nothing wrong with living off others success. Everyone who works does it.
No. If you live off your employers success, you should be fired.
A good employee is paid less than what he contributes to the company.
It's basically a long walk to becoming some kind of social fuck up especially if you live somewhere isolated.
I've seen it happen with quite a few other kids than me.
There are many factors that make you become ostracised by peers, clothing, food, possessions etc. I think the most important is, often you don't socially develop properly as you won't get to make friends outside of school and that's at an early age if your parents can't drive you and you're too young to catch the bus. Often you'll refuse social contact as you don't only feel out of your own comfort but like you won't be able to sustain friendship and you'll automatically refuse unknowingly as your parents have distilled it into you will and it saves the embarrassment of past experiences. Other parents will worry of you being a bad influence especially because of the signs that mark you out as poor.
The social aspect is lessened in urban areas you can socialise with other poor kids. That said I've never seen any of these of the smart poor ones grow up or realise their potential, they tend to fly in the same ever diminishing circles with the same diminutive people.

But their success becomes yours as well. And if they fail, you will fail. They use you to get more money and don't need to do the labor. You're literally depending on them handing you out a job.
>>769146745
I'm glad things turned out better for you. You're a champ
>>769146969
I don't think that's how inconclusive works. Inconclusive just means the data was a garbled mess and no inferences can be drawn from it. This isn't what happened in the study.
>>769147463
You are not telling me how thorough the test were.
>>769142223
Your candy fucking ass would get run in a day if we let people starve. Yeah i would rather constantly be battling poor people that are starving to death than throw them 15% of my taxes. Your a bitter blue collar worker lol
In not sure how it was for others, but for me it was extremely up-and-down. Every weekday the thing I looked forward to the most was going to school (I know for many kids their favorite part of the day is getting out of school). My freshman and sophomore years I didn't do any extra-curricular activities so I would get home at 3, find something to eat (I remember we didn't have much to eat so it was usually either sweet pickles or dry cereal), do my homework, and watch youtube vids on a 24 inch monitor. I didn't have many friends at school but just being around people made me feel alot better than being in a trailer home with my mom (who was in and out of minimum wage jobs). My junior and senior years I ended up doing track and photography club. I made a bunch more friends and we would even hangout after practice/shoots. I would get home at 7 or 8 each night and life was alot better for me. Also, I ended up sleeping over their houses alot on the weekends. Just separating myself from my situation at home made me 100x happier. Now I'm a junior at a 4-year college. Looking back on it I could say it was tough, but it made me have the drive to never want to go back to that type of situation ever again.
>>769139924
If you eliminate the bottom 20%, then the people who were in the 20% - 36% range become the new bottom 20%.
So then you kill those people, and then the next higher-up fraction becomes the new bottom 20%, etc.
Repeat this process until exactly one human is left on the planet.
>>769147530
Thoroughness only improves accuracy. We can infer the thoroughness of the study through the precision of the data.
Like if half the kids were undiagnosed autists, then the datapoints would be all over the place and the study would be inconclusive. The fact that the datapoints were not all over the place suggests otherwise.
Granted, it is possible to plot random points and end up with a .9 or 1 correlation, but the odds of that happening with hundreds of data points is so small we don't even consider it.
being poor but not in debt and not on welfare suck being responsible sucks I swear the Jesus that 50% of people living high off the hog are probably in debt up to their ears and I pray for the day that they are homeless and will fuckung laugh at them
>>769140717
I don't do any of that and yet I am still poor
>>769141797
>>769139924
poors shouldnt be killed, they just shouldnt have kids
>>769148027
Yes, but does it show what happened to these said kids assuming they're grown up now? Data would be more useful if we can compare before and after
Elementary teacher here. I grew up upper middle class so I don't know a whole lot about living in poverty. What can I do to make help make the poor kids more comfortable at school?
>>769149142
As a teacher? Stop bullying when you hear it. Other then that nothing really. The only way to stop kids from knowing the rich from the poor is to have uniforms.
>>769149142
If you think something is going on, "abuse, neglect, addiction", report the parents to social services. If you do nothing, you are technically responsible for them ending in shit.
>>769148965
They collected the data once when the kids were 7, and once again when they were 17. During both collections the hybrid kids were in the middle of the black kids and the white kids.
There's nothing after that.

>>769146810
Right now I have a menial job but am finishing up a degree in education.
Why I'm not rich or middle class is because I saved for school. I could've easily had $50k in savings but I bought my own place and haven't had to go into debt for school. My savings, however, is nowhere near what I'm comfortable with rn.

Lost virginity at the same year to a 9/10. The same year I learned that women don't give a shit about your clothes, your looks or your wealth, but instead they fuck anyone who's funny and man enough to try them. I keep seeing incels complaining about women only wanting to fuck niggers chads and whatnot, "98% of women fuck 10% of men" and other bullshit excuses.
Maybe it's an American thing? With all that racial tension, school shootings and all I've started to believe that you people live in a very, very disturbed society.
>>769148138
This. I could've easily saved and took out loans but I chose to save and pay for everything out of my pocket. I'm poor now because of it but I have zero debt. I'm OK with this. I know plenty of people making 40k+ who are buried in debt
