so why the fuck do we shame poor people for giving themselves little luxuries like starbucks and second-hand designer purses but nobody says a damn thing about rich people wasting extravagant amounts of money on gold-plated toilet seats and shit?? if you have so much extra fucking money that you’re spending it on a third sports car you may as well donate it to someone who really needs it. why the FUCK does society try to shame poor people for not wanting to be miserable all the time but turns a blind eye to rich fucks squandering huge amounts of money on useless shit. why. 

Especially since research has continually supported the idea that a great way to help poor people is to simply GIVE THEM MONEY.  If you’re not comfortable donating to people directly, literally just take the money for that third sports car and hand it to a food bank.  All a food bank does is FEED HUNGRY PEOPLE.  

Like why is this so hard?
