From politicians, to Presidents of large corporations in all walks of life, there is corruption, thievery, murder, rape, child porn etc. You seem to live in a world of "rose colored glasses" when it comes to the well to do and are so uneducated about those who have to fight to survive and still come out as decent, law abiding and respectful humans.

You know some of the most "beautiful people in the world" are only that way until they open their mouth.
I guess I had lived in a different country when I thought I was living in USA. Let me put you a bit straight: projects is not a place where well-to-do people dream about living. lets not fool anyone here. I am not talking about the one lawyer or the one doctor who came out of projects, lets talk about the rest who end up in jails, if not then they end up working in the mail room of some office building, and the rest, jobless welfare dependent losers. I have seen projects, i knew people from projects when I was young and i know cab driver who hate going to projects in NY, thats why we have the gypsy cabs who serve those areas. so please, don't try to fool me about projects, tell this to a dominican living in campo; they might believe you easily.
Now if projects have changed over the years then I think I maybe wrong but I still see people from projects who act like thugs.
