		<description>Dear Jake the Loser - I could strip everything from everybody and hand each American $1 million.  You know what, schmuck?  In 3 years, you would see multi-millionaires and homeless people.  Some people are determined to make the worst possible choices in life....and they love blaming others. (NOTE to poor women - Popping out illegitimate babies is not a busainess model.)</description>

Yes, there are some poor who choose that life.  But conservatives + Ellison believe that ALL who are poor choose that way.  ITS NOT TRUE.

Its incredibly ignorant and naive to believe that.</description>

		<description>Dear JuanC - Thank you for pointing one of the LARGEST problems with &quot;liberalism&quot;.  When BAD choices are no longer BAD CHOICES, you have succeeded in de-humanizing people.  (The only thing that separates us from some primates is our consciences and ability to choose.)  In law enforcement, the name for your classic psycho-babble is &quot;the medicalization of deviance.&quot; (Translation: EVERYONE is sick rather than BAD...)</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear JuanC &#8211; Thank you for pointing one of the LARGEST problems with &#8220;liberalism&#8221;.  When BAD choices are no longer BAD CHOICES, you have succeeded in de-humanizing people.  (The only thing that separates us from some primates is our consciences and ability to choose.)  In law enforcement, the name for your classic psycho-babble is &#8220;the medicalization of deviance.&#8221; (Translation: EVERYONE is sick rather than BAD&#8230;)<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=1410513', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>#153: &lt;em&gt;I feel sorry for anyone who falls into a desperate strait. I support charities which help these folks. I donâ€™t feel sorry for druggies, drunks or tweakers.&lt;/em&gt;

How about a person who falls into &quot;a desperate strait&quot; and then starts drinking as a result?  These problems aren&#039;t as simple as you seem to suggest.  Alcoholics and drug addicts are often mentally ill, the children of abusive parents, and the like.  Such people need help to get out of the situations that they&#039;re in.</description>

		<description>#6: &lt;em&gt;I donâ€™t believe in scarcity in America. I believe in abundance. Youâ€™ll have to go to North Korea or Cuba to find scarcity.&lt;/em&gt;

So, if you just &quot;believe&quot; hard enough, you can make the problems associated with poverty go away?  What a dumb comment.</description>
