I only bring this up to stir the puddin’, because some people don’t like the painful truth …but the rich keep getting rich because they do whatever it is that made them rich.  Ditto for the poor.

From a Townhall column …

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2011 unemployment for those without a high school diploma was 50 percent higher than those with a high school diploma and almost three times higher than those with a college degree.

According to the Census Bureau, in 2010 17.8 percent of American families with children under 18 lived in poverty. However, in households with children that had married parents, 8.4 percent lived in poverty. In households with children headed by a single mother, 39.6 percent lived in poverty.

Uh oh … single mothers.  I love to get their thongs in a wad as well!
