RE: Feeling Steemy! I'm Jared from Montana! And I stayed up all night writing this =) it's morning

To the OP this was a great intro.

This is an encouraging comment for the most part and I learned from it. I just need to reply to your reference of "even poor illegal aliens know to get free foood at a food bank to save on groceries so they can buy their cadillacs and save up all theri welfare checks!". I'm sorry but this is an extremely ignorant reference.
Isnt possible that these illegal aliens that are driving nice cars might be busting there asses working 16 hour a day jobs doing work that no one else wants to do? Is it possible that welfare recepients in general are going to food banks because goverment subsidies arent enough to survive on? Is it possible that these people are on welfare because of 50 plus years of liberal policies that discourage people from creating a family by penalizing couples that get married? Is it possible that a machine, that must eat, called the prison industrial complex is incarcerating males at a higher rate than anywhere else in the world? I really get offended when I hear people talking about welfare queeens without having any idea what it is like to live under those conditions.
I am an Amercian born citizen, former US Navy Electronic Warfare officer with a top secret security clearance. My parents are from Puerto Rico and I was born and raised in the projects from Bedford Stuyvesant Brooklyn. Yes there are individuals that are gaming the system but that is the exception and not the rule. The majority of the folks from my old hood are some of the hardest working people I've known.
If I were to pick out one of their flaws it would be ignorance, specifically, institutionally imposed ignorance. The type that comes from substandard, housing, medical, schools and food. I got into crypto to change the pardigm. Ignorance is the biggest evil that can be imposed on a human being. It is a slow torturous death sentence. The worst part is that some of these victims dont even realize its happening to them.
I hope I didnt offend you or anyone else in this thread and I apoligize to the OP for hijacking your inspiring intro. Forgive me.
