It really ills me to see so many leftists with the entitlement complex they have. While the province is in major deficit this year with future deficits predicted, these people want more socialism. While 2.6 billion people in the world live on less than $2 per day, these people want more! And these are the same people who denounce classism and denounce greed. Unreal.

They are just a bunch of poor fucks with no political clout.

These people are not poor! Notice as one commenter pointed out that some of these "poverty stricken" individuals are wearing expensive running shoes. Hardly the clothing of people doing everything they possibly can to eliminate their own poverty. And granted, while they may have purchased these clothes used, there are truly poor people in the world and none of these people are included in that group illustrated by the fact that they are not starving to death. It is absurd to me that comfortable westerners protest poverty while there are people in the world who are far poorer.
