    If survival is your only goal, sure. But that’s sad as fuck, and an indication a person needs assistance of some sort. Nobody should only have to rely on themselves, we’d all end up no better than HAMAS.

      Ah yes, I am poor and therefore I am as bad as terrorists. Thanks so much for opening my eyes. Guess I just buy a few houses and stop being poor then. Man, all this time and I didn’t even know I was the evil one.

        Don’t misunderstand me. Being poor and being a terrorist are not the same. However, being oppressed for long enough will make you hate your leaders enough to turn you into one.

        I’m talking real oppression though, where you have no real control over anything.

        Also, when I say “do what it takes to survive” I’m talking about robbery and murder. Not just picking up some extra work here and there.
