Mex. poor are poorer then Cuban poor. are N.O. poor poorer then
Edited on Tue Apr-18-06 11:28 AM by donsu

the Mex. poor?

I learned this yesterday on Wash. Journal. that Mexican poor are worse off then Cuban poor. which made me wonder about our N.O. poor.

I would think Haiti poor would out poor them all.

1. Afghani poor win the prize.
Their country has been in a civil war since half the people here were born.

2. donsu, what leads you to this conclusion? I mean, are there
stats somewhere that I could go see? Does the UN keep them or? I wouldn't even know how to begin to look. :think:

3. a guest on Wash. Journal said this yesterday

think it was (but not sure) the same guy that said Guatemala had gone hormonal, etc. Timothy Noftali.

I'm not wrong about yesterday but it might have another guest.

I keep thinking about it.

Cuba is supposed to be so awful but their poor is better off then Mex. poor. Mex. coming to US to make money so they are not so poor and blacks from N.O. are poorer then they were before Katrina.

like that song/rhyme - here a poor, there a poor, everywhere a poor, poor.

4. Oh, I see. Maybe I'll invest some time in researching this
instead of browbeating DUers who don't seem to get how poverty can drive you out of your home, away from everyone you love and even out of your country. That hasn't worked very well for me so far.

:think:

5. A spelling police moment.
Not to detract from your point, but your title should use the word "than" not "then".
