Re: “Nice rich people don’t need poor doors,” May 13.

One more person blaming rich people for having the nerve to live the way they want. Thanks to those wealthy bastards and those evil developers, poor people can afford to live in a place with roof and running water in a city the people at City Hall have been obsessed with selling to the world as the best place to live.

I find people using the phrase “poor door” are usually self-entitled persons who think we all should have granite counters and soaker tubs but someone else should pay for them.

Being poor is not a shame; whining and demanding to have free stuff and expecting rich people to have “social responsibility to their neighbours or the children of our society” (after the hefty sums of money paid in taxes) is blatantly egotistic and irresponsible.
