Senora Posted June 12, 2009 Poor? Pay up! The narratives really ring a bell for me as I was raised in a family that could be labeled working poor. But the elaborate detailes allow for an even more awakening to the tribulations of the poor. Even more fascinating is the revelation that these retail shops arent profiting from the high prices! Hard to imagine the high prices their dealt with just to stay open....the paradox of the cost of living for the poor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paragon Posted June 12, 2009 And that my dearest, is what the theorists call: the discontents of capitalism. Now it sure requires some sort of reformation, how to go about it is the burning question. Will you go for an outright communism, or mild socialism or even a fusion of marxism and capitalism to garner some support for the poor shop keepers! But you know what? At least the shop keepers have a shop to keep. What about the billions that have a dollar to keep per day? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
