The poor live good in the USA. They have free housing, free phones, cable TV, free food, on and on.
The high crime in the USA is the socialist policies that push dad's out of the house and leave the kids with no structure in their lives.
What is great is in the USA, if you want to, you can get a head. I want to get ahead, working for someone else the rest of my life to pay for women to get an easy ride isn't for me. I want to be a true alpha, free of depending on some company or govt. to get me by.
