I think you've reduce poor people down to some sort of one-dimensional thing. People are people and they do care about how they look no matter how much they have or don't have. Poor people aren't like dogs or rats - they think and have feelings too. Being poor does not make you a simpleton. You're making a vast, damaging stereotype, in my opinion. Poor people tend to be treated as less than other people enough as it is.
