      Are you not aware that poor people have smartphones these days? Back in my day being poor meant having absolutely nothing. I say we take their phones away and their shoes too for good measure. That way they’ll know what true poverty is like /s

        I’m more surprised that the survey even had that as an option. I think the survey options were just:

        • the rich have too much
        • the poor have too much
        • they have about the same

        Kind of a braindead survey tbh and probably doesn’t justify an article.

        I mean the literal definition of poor is that they don’t have enough.
