Poverty is so cool! is good thing we make it avail.

Catchy, eh? in the end it give you maybe 5 seconds of reading about poverty...and truth be told, that is pretty much moire then you will ever think about it.

The struggles of men, women and children will never make a clarion call...

But i made you think longer about it longer then you likely ever did before, and yes i am ready to be banned now

in the end who needs a party which lacks humanity,

we used to have a poverty forum, it was not popular...when was it ever

Why else would he have made so many? Not sure of the author of that one. But it was Sholom Aleichem that wrote: It's no disgrace to be poor, but it's no great honor either.
