Yeah... brag about how rich your parents are.. thats great for you. I think it is really screwed up though that people w/that kind of money can get financial aid and scholarships geared towards poorer students that cant go if they dont get that money. Yes, getting the money would help everyone, but the rich greedy people would still be able to go while on the other hand, the poor person has to keep a minimum wage job because they cant afford college if they dont get that grant. Thats the one thing that pisses me off about rich people...all they care about is themselves and they are greedy as anything. What separates the middle class from the lower upper class is greed. They both make the same money, but one is more caring towards others.
If you dont beleive me, take for example, anything as a volunteer activity. Most of the time it is the middle class. the richer people are too good to do that. If you are looking for donations...say red cross or something like that. Logic would say, go in front of Macys or some high end class store, since they have more money instead of wal-mart where people dont have much. What would you end up with...at wal-mart, you would have a hell of a lot more individual donations, and most likely more money. Why? Because richer people really dont give a crap, if it doesnt benefit them directly...it aint happening. Take my favorite 2 examples...

While working @ dairy queen, in the drive through, you obviously have many people coming through that are short a few cents. When I was doing it, obviously the person in the backfiring POS that was searching endlessly to find the extra 5 cents i would let go... where I would not give anything to the rich snobby lady in her new BMW, that didnt want to open her purse again to get out the extra nickle. And beleive me, it happened alot.

My first thing I wouldnt forget was this lady... she had 2 kids in the back seat and she was driving a new jag. she came up like 30 cents short, and she promised that she would go over to wal-mart and get change and come back(50 feet away) if i gave her the food. I was feeling nice, and said ok as long as you promise... needless to say, the dumb bitch just drove off. Great example for your kids retard.
---a week later a person in a beat up something did the same thing...i gave them the food, they said they would be right back, and guess what 5 minutes later there they were.

I know some will say...its a measly 5 cents, but it just shows that they obviously dont care.

Then we had a guy thinking he was hot stuff in a brand new... straight from the lot 5 series. he gave me 25cents short. I asked him for the rest, and he got pissed and said I took it.... right. Needless to say, he got mad, and wanted to see the manager(who was behind me the whole time). Who also told him that he was short. After he got his food, he backed his car up..parked it(in the drive through) got out, and picked up all of the pennies on the ground outside the window. Talk about get a life!

Thats my venting, sorry, just bored @ work w/an hour to go.
