Thanks for explaining the message. have to say not what I saw.
"You are richer than 75% of the entire population of the earth"
Is the part that bugs me and I associate with Jerry lewis's style of
guiltiness.
Jerry Lewis , for some of us(disabled persons) is also the greatest
oppressor as he and pimp in the sense that he uses our bodies/disability to
solicit funds via pity.Most often those funds are kept for other purposes.
As disabled our class system is odd out. If your working by comparison to
majority within our group you are upper working. If your not you are the
underclass which is the majority and as a group, we are more than often
guaranteed to be downward mobile.
