    But nobody will come right out and say that... will they?
    I certainly wouldn't.

    The bigotry of this post is only surpassed by the sheer ignorance displayed by the poster.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Sorry you feel that way. I work in the remodeling/construction industry. I see the properties, deal directly with the property owners, and have hundreds of stories involving the conditions these properties are left in by the time I get there. That observation is a fact derived from actually having been on-site and witnessing the increasing frequency of what must have been unbelievable living conditions. I did not enjoy putting it out there.
    You'll notice that I was very specific in who (young men living in tight quarters).

    Ignorance? Bigotry? Hardly, and I assume you must be speaking directly to race.
    If you don't wish to believe the people who are closest to actually seeing what is going on under the radar and behind the scenes, then none of us can have an honest discussion about what the real problems are.

    In other post, I have been saying that the vast majority of Americans don't have a clue how bad it has become. And frankly I'm sorry for even assuming that anyone would understand that I am specifically addressing "conditions" that low wage workers are placed in while trying to make it on sub-standard wages.
    You'll see what you wish to see. I guess.

    Please don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is obviously me, But my attitude depends largely upon you.
