In Class Assingment

I thought that this activity was really neat. It really opened my eyes to how difficult it is for underpriviliged families. It is a lot easier for middle class people to tell them to get a job, but it is very difficult to get a job, and even with a job it is hard to make ends meet. Many of the people helping the poor are not friendly and make it even harder, since the poor often have to make multiple trips to get things done. Therefore wasting time and money, and making it even harder to get a job and move up. It also reinforced the idea that sometimes no matter how hard you work for something it just doesn't get there.
