LOL--are you talking about the welfare mother's 100 kids or the illegal immigrant's 1000 kids?

Since we're talking about the norm and not whatever outliers make up the exceptions to the norm, the working poor and those actively seeking employment know that it's their responsibility to take care of their families and be hardworking, taxpaying citizens.

Now, onto finding another real problem. LOL.

Actually the working poor don't know it is their responsibility to take care of their families. Why do you think MOST of the kids that are poor are from single parent households? It is kind of tough to take care of kids that you don't even know.

Uh...let's break your post down into topics.

Topic 1: The working poor and their sense of family responsibility. They have a strong sense of hard work and family responsibility. Being poor and having to depend on AFDC in any way has huge psychological implications and research indicates this.
Topic 2: Single parent families--especially common with the urban poor--disproportionately black and Hispanic. Yeah, we know this, so.....
Topic 3: Even with the prevalence of dead beat fathers in certain communities, the single mothers who are capable of doing so work damn hard to take care of their families. Therefore, the working poor know that it is their responsibility to take care of their families.
