I understabd exactly why they're fat. I understand that food that comes from refuse of the general public is not a fantastic way to survive. However, my point was, again, that there are OPTIONS, and that if you have NOTHING, you are not above such a feat to live. If I had absolutely nothing, I would not consider myself above dumpster diving for food. While it's a far cry from my typical Sunday trip to Whole Foods, circumstances are only what they are. I have neither respect, nor disrespect for people who are homeless. Some people choose the life. Some people have nothing else. It is what it is.
No, it's not my fault. It's not my fault that the Mexican economy is poor. It is not my fault that they illegally cross the border. That argument is like saying it's our fault that there is high crime in inner-city areas because of white opression of American black people. Bullshit! If a thug pops a gangsta, it's no more my fault than a Mexican hoping the border. I refuse to accept responsibility for the illegal actions of others. If you feel it's your duty to wallow in pity for those around you, feel free, but I cannot shoulder that particular fate of society.
