None of the people who were there worked or sacrificed for the money to buy the shoes and some even took money from others in order to buy them.

Most of the folks living here went without something, lived within their incomes and worked more than 8 hours a day to have nice stuff.

And the parents of these kids could buy nice golf carts if they didn't give them money for sneakers.

WOW!!!!
Yup. Pretty much............But I did use the modifiers "many, most or some"....to be fair.

What is your take on things?
