At least with MS Word, they can get the tools they need to lift themselves out of poverty. You and ted posted examples of what is the difference between conservative and liberals. Conservatives see all people as one, just in different circumstances. Poor people are no different than you or I. Liberals see poor people as poor people who cannot help themselves. Same way they look at minorities. As a lower life form, stuck where they are at, and always will be stuck where they are at. Sad.

Ted, > When you don't have enough money for rent and food, you wouldn't be able to afford MSFT word even if it were $10. Let me put it this way. I'd rather see them with MS Word than with cheap or free Viagra/contraceptives/abortion. At least with MS Word, they can get the tools they need to lift themselves out of poverty. Many poor are no where close to being saved by MS Word. That's what really bothers me. There is a segment of poor America that has become institutionalized. They are so hard core poor its going to take a long time to turn them around.........and it ain't MS Word that's going to do the trick.
