Either through misunderstanding or intentionally, you completely missed srdavis2000's point.
He grew up poor, made something of his life, now lives a nice comfortable life, and did it through his own efforts. No government "handouts", no "at-risk" programs, no "under-priviledged" programs. Just a guy who decided to make his way in the world, and living in a country where any person can do that.
What part of that don't you get?!
My Dad did a similar thing. He grew up on a small family farm in a small town. Worked hard, studied hard, got an Associate degree in business, worked his way up, became the office manager for the local branch of a large company, had a new home built for us, was able buy reasonably nice cars (mostly Buicks), put his two kids through college, saved enough for my Mom to live comfortably, and died at 66 from cancer. Not a penny of welfare.
Are you starting to get it now?
