@xdgamesCoUk It is almost cute that you actually believe that poor people are poor because they are lazy or make bad choices. Let me tell you how the world works. Poor people are poor because if you make everyone rich then no one will bother doing any work because they already have all the money they need. But if no one does any work there will be no food/clothing/houses for people to spend their money on and everyone will suddenly become poor. So the real reason there are poor people is because without poor people no work would get done and everybody would become poor. So all of politics is about one thing and one thing only - how much should we squeeze poor people? The REAL reason that certain rich people promoted Brexit is because the EU prevents them from screwing over the poor people as much as they want to screw them over. If we leave the EU they will be able to make the poor even more poor than they are now thus inducing them to work harder to feed themselves which might provide a more economically mobile country. Economically mobile does not mean richer however. Britain will be poorer but the rich/poor divide will be greater so the rich will actually be better off even though the country will be poorer. #Economics101 + #Brexit101 for full credit.

 @xdgamesCoUk And if there is no bread, they should eat cake I suppose?
