yes. and let's not forget riverside...

 

I had no idea that California had cured poverty. We should all switch to their economic model.

 

I actually used to do a lot of volunteer work with the east LA community project and I was a trainer for Healthy Start of San Bernadino. I was just saying that the poverty outhere is different then the poverty out east.

 

Oh my bad then I am speaking of manufactured homes-that's what they have out here. I don't think I've ever seen somone live in a trailer here.

 

no, it's not. there's the same sorta broke ass shanty towns and trailer living in SoCal as there is out east. no education, no money, no hope. we used to cook up thanksgiving dinners and deliver them to the junk yard in Long Beach. people live there.

 

my brother lives in a trailer...in stanton.

 

well then I guess I am blind to it): I've never seen people live like the boys lived in this show.

 

yeah. i've seen some pretty sorry shit in socal. i've seen the same shit in new mexico, tennessee, kentucky, illinois, florida. it's all pretty much the same.

 

There are more than a thousand trailers in my county alone. And I don't live in an impovershed area.

 

yep. my friend's neighbors lived in a trailer with no power, water, sewer system, anything. they had 3 kids living there. again, not an impoverished community.

 

well, i stayed up to watch the documentary last night. it just reminds me of my aunt and cousin soooo much, its eerie. they live with with my grandma, so i see them all the time when i'm home. then i saw the documentary and i can't see a difference between the people on the show and my aunt and cousin.

 

they're the majority of my family, too.

 

My dad's side of the family consists mainly of hillbillies as well.

 

The last part of frontline is on tonight. I so hope they graduate and go to college. Your grandma sounds like a really nice person.

 

My dad's side of the family does too and my dad's buisnesses profit millions each year and he doesn't even help them out. It's sickening. I don't talk to the bastard. I don't want my trust or my inheritance or a thing from that man.

 

what exactly is considered a hillbilly?? cuz I dont know if any of my family constitutes that term or not...

 

I think you have to know at least 3 recipes for squirrel

 

i watched a little of that last night. didn't seem that bad to me.

 

i got a place up the road where i can get rabbits
