The difference between Wildwood and the Villages is that we don't have pockets of poor people, we have pockets of selfish and unkind and self absorbed and entitled people. Well not pockets, but glaring examples, how's that? Many of us have been poor. Many of us have had far less than we have now, but thankfully, many of us have been raised with respect and consideration for others.
sigh.

Sorry Gracie, but all people are not the same. Values for one, work ethic for another. Simply because you are poor does not entitle you to live like a pig or raise your children to think they are entitled to government handouts. This cuts across all racial lines and all ethnicities. I considers myself a social liberal, but I will NEVER understand why people simply because they earn less money then myself show the world that they could care less of their surroundings, can't pick up a wrapper, and can't pick themselves up by their bootstraps and improve their lives for themselves and their family.
