DU this Poll
Edited on Wed Nov-30-05 12:17 PM by pookieblue
Yesterday Former President Jimmy Carter came to our local library to sign his book and speak. There was an article in today’s paper about it.

They also had a poll asking Do you agree with former President Jimmy Carter's assertion that the world's greatest challenge in the new millenium is the growing chasm between the rich and poor?

So far the No’s out number the Yes’s.

Here is the link to the article and poll:

6. creepy comment
"As I drove down 2nd Ave yesterday, I saw several men (all within working age) perched in front of the Valley Rescue Mission at 11 a.m. Why weren't they out looking for work? Why were they sitting there and waiting for others to take them in? "

Is this paper in Ohio?

columbus, Ga.

It's about 100 miles southwest of Atlanta.



though I do have to add...that response by Largemarge does creep me out as well.

I guess Large Marge is one of those who thinks poor = lazy.

I happen to know plenty of people who are struggling from paycheck to paycheck...to put food on their tables and the house heated to work very hard.
