    I think we should be subsidizing people’s poor reading comprehension.

    Why should the poor subsidize their income with our labor?

    the poorour = us
    their = the rich

    This commenter was asking for someone to try and justify why we (the working class) should have our labor contribute to the income of people whose existence is based on exploiting others. A perfectly reasonable question.

      I could have used clearer language. It was just a misunderstanding.

      Homie came to bat for the working man straight up. I can’t fault that ever.
