Drug abuse and we do not have the social safety nets of Western Europe.

Mental illness and/or drug abuse.

>being a lazy nigger

Poor financial planning and decision making.

>Drug

You better do something about it then

I am more surprised about the people who can live with those people around them.
>Step into human feces on your way to work
>Homeless guy pulls out in front of you
>Slips on used needle
>San Francisco is such an interesting vibrant city

Same reason we have poor people here. The US is way too soft on drugs and fell for the weed meme.

The war on drugs has been an absolute failure. Most of the drug lords have bought off Mexico and some peon will always be willing to traffic/sell drugs

The beauty of capitalism

Low IQ. It's nearly impossible to live well when your IQ is less than 85

Liberal areas aren't first world

being first world comes with a high cost of living
also most of our homeless still live better than the average African

because either you work or you fuck off

>liberals

Oh ya cause all the conservative areas are all clean and dandy get your head out of the fucking sand m8

Local economies no longer exist.
Only big corps.

>living in poverty
What is poverty? I would bet most of those people have enough to eat and probably a smart phone. We live in the greatest time in recorded history. 100 years ago your ancestors would shit their pants if they opened your fridge and cupboards and saw all the food you had available to you for virtually nothing.

HEY FAGGOT YOU CAN ONLY HAVE HOMELESS PEOPLE IN FIRST WORLDS BECAUSE OF SAFETY NETS GO TO INDIA AND TRY TO BE POOR LOL FAGGOT

WHAT A FUCKING FAG

that jav in the gucci shoes mmmf

Able bodied men are a dime a dozen and treated like slaves in south Florida.

Good question. Also easy question. Capitalism. Under capitalism, the number one goal is profit. If it means Shlomo is deep in the green this quarter, that is the most important thing, even if it means millions of your countrymen are impoverished and eating shit.

winning cold war

lol you're retarded

This is an obvious shill thread. Saged and don't bump this

That’s Commiefornia. That’s not the USA.

>spend hundreds of dollars a week on drugs and alcohol
>dont work
>obese even though homeless

they want to be

Question for Jow Forumsacks

Is it worse to remain around such poverty and be happy and oblivious like the guy talking on his phone, or to avoid being around that poverty because the whole thing is just wrong?

>How is it physically possible to be living in poverty in a 1st world country especially in the USA?

>(((politicians and businessmen))) give women voting rights and jobs
>wages halved because workforce doubles
>(((politicians and businessmen))) open border and move all factories to chinkland
>wages halved because jobs dissappear
>(((politicians and businessmen))) open border with spicland and spics flood the country
>wages halved because workforce doubles

This man is correct

Liberal areas are densely populated cities (niggers, spics, chinks, faggots, homeless bums)

Neither, it's best to focus on your family and yourself because your country abandoned you decades ago.

Actually we do indeed have the social safety nets. But when you have a bunch of outstanding arrest warrants and will be forced to give up the booze and drugs, you can't partake.

It's very easy to fall into poverty in yurop as well. Those safety nets don't apply to white men.
One day some fucker at human ressources decides you have to be fired for a fake reason, but you can't defend yourself, you find yourself without a job, your wife leaves you and take the children, you have to leave the house and give it to her, you have to pay alimony to children, since you don't have a home you can't have a job, and since you can't have a job you can't have a home. It's that simple. Could happen to anyone really.

Gambling and alcohol in general

L A is expensive, yo

Another Casualty that need to read more books.
>Lets take advice from a dying breed

>We have the social safety nets
Dude, our unemployment and gibs don’t touch Europe.

Poverty is defined as the lowest 1/8 of the population in terms of income. All populations will have a lowest 1/8.

That guy on the phone is obviously not poor

the people that live like that choose to do so

>How is it physically possible to be living in poverty in a 1st world country especially in the USA?

America is a third world shithole.

It's because the middle class does not pay enough taxes

All of those stats should be followed by
>If you were black.

Not if you get rid of 1/8th of the population you fucking retard

Illegal immigration and absolutely horrendous taxation policies in Democratic states.

>If you were black.

Every American is black.

Even if some of those rural retards you hate so much do have shabby houses on their own land, they at least have houses and a means to provide a living for themselves.

Because cost of living scales with 'wealth'. It ain't exactly rocket appliance. Capitalists will happily increase costs of whatever, housing, rent, food, goods, to soak up any excess capital that the goyim may posses.

So is Europe, welcome to the club.

Not really, your infrastructure is fucking appalling in comparison.

At least we're better than Mexico lol.

America is surreal.

Not for the only people who matter, which are accomplished white people.

White folks worth anything don't care about poor white trash. They disgrace us by their culture and we'd gas them if they weren't useful for cheap labor.

anything is possible in america

It's not that there isn't enough to go around for everyone, there's plenty. It's a mis-management of distribution that's the problem.

I didn't know people in third world country wear such nice clothing m8.

you will be the same once you learn the reality of living among minorities

Some people just don't have the get up and go.
Others are low IQ.
Others are mentally ill.
Others are drug or alcohol abusers.
You can't help those who don't want to help themselves.

Brain problems.

But, the remainder will once again have a lowest 1/8th.

on purpose

i'd say it is you who is deciving yourself from reality or maybe be. Capitalism has never really been tried (except for the period of time from the beginning of life up until about 100 years ago)
