Are Talon Members part of the problem or part of the solution

[PUMP]

From the Katrina and suing the government thread. Do Lightning aficionados consider themselves rich or poor?

[charlie]

Not enough poll questions. I'm poor and would not ask the gov.

Both

I voted rich, because I'd never ask ANYONE, but in reality, I'm pretty much dirt poor right now. I need to go back to my corner with my sign now, "Will Race For Food".

[PUMP]

The reason that I set only two options was that some folks were(are) blaming the Katrina/government mess on POOR folks. My contention i that financial strength is only one contributing condition. The major problem is low self image and lack of pride. IMO if an individual would never ask the government to take care of them, they are indeed rich in everyway that counts.

Bob,
I am not sure what you are getting at with this poll.. I dont think I want to participate in it..

I didnt blame the poor for what happened with Katrina, but there is some question as to the level of common sense that is involved with those that chose to stay and with those that are determined to rebuild in the same place that got flooded and is located below sea level..

I consider myself rich for the fact I do have people around me the will always be there for me, My family and alot of you guys. We dont have to look to the goverment for help, if one of us lost everything we had in a storm, quake, ect. The rest of us would be there to help rebuild it no matter how little or much we had to contribute. I dont always have the right words to say what Im feeling but I bet yall get the gist of it.

Well said. I voted rich even though I am far from it. It's not just poor people that are suing the government and expecting all this help.

+1 Probably the only true wealth I'll ever have is friends and family. I don't mind a bit I live comfortable and don't want for much.
