Coffee isn't expensive or time consuming. I pay about $7 for 12oz of ground coffee, and it lasts for at least a couple weeks' worth of brewing an 8-cup pot of fresh coffee every morning.

I suppose if you pay someone else to make your coffee it would cost more, but that would be a massive waste of money to do on a regular basis.

All of the rights on the Bill of Rights are good and we should support them all. Case in point ^^

I think one of his worst pieces of advice is to pay off debts before saving for an emergency fund (if I remember correctly)

Saving some kind of emergency fund first is more important than not having any debts. Having money on hand is worldly power in your hand basically. If you're debt free but broke, then you can't deal with an emergency that requires money.

No bathroom breaks, piss at your desk in a jug!

The 2nd Amendment will likely be in place long after all of us are dead, because it is a right that the majority of Americans support, and because amending the Constitution is required to change it, and because amending the Constitution is very difficult.

Constitutional amendments require a 2/3 majority vote of both houses of Congress to pass (initially) then must also pass ratification by 3/4 of state legislatures. Only takes 13 red states to vote NO to block it. All of the red states are going to vote against it, every time, because the right to bear arms is an inherent right that we will never give up.

It is a valid line of inquiry if you consider that not taking care of basic personal hygiene is a symptom of mental incompetence. We do not want to elect a mentally incompetent leader. By all visible evidence, the man has working arms and hands that should presumably be able to reach to wash himself. So if he goes around smelling like a toilet dumpster then something is mentally wrong there.

Of course there have been numerous other indications of such issues beyond the reports of stench.

The deep South actually has the highest percentage of the USA's black population.

We had more vehicles than people for awhile at my place, more than we could drive at once

It really seems like you're imagining a bunch of things I never said anything about, because you want to get on your soapbox and talk more about poverty. Everything I suggested is completely achievable by many of those in poverty, to which I speak from personal experience.

I disagree with the assertion points 1 through 6 are factual. Those are all extremely broad generalizations based on assumptions you hold. Some of those things do happen on occasion of course, but it's not a railroad track of 1 leads to 6 with no other possibilities. The financial industry is heavily regulated by the US Gov't which exerts control to prevent much of 1 - 3 on your list.

Well I've lived through poverty and the Debt Trap and worked my way out of it into success and stability, but if you want to ignore my advice that's your problem. My financial literacy allowed me to buy a house and land.

You have no fucking clue what I know about, actually.
