	Poor White Women
		The poor were there, but we were allowed to identify with the White South (the Bourbons), and to share their war, frustration, glamour.
		A clever poor White girl lies about her humble background, when she goes to the city, that is, if she wants to catch a man who will raise her status.
		So the poor white woman grows up either in ignorance destined to marry a poor White man and live in relative poverty or move into the post-wartime economy of urban employment, or she will make it out into a higher class through marriage.

	Vollmann's Poor Folk - February 26, 2007 - The New York Sun
		Vollmann has arranged "Poor People" under a series of "self-definitions." His subjects try in their own way to answer his question: "Why are you poor?" Like Alexis de Tocqueville's 1835 essay "On Pauperism," which set out to explain why some live in poverty while others flourish, Mr.
		Vollmann travels to countries famous for their poverty, and those, like America and Japan, where the poor may be numerous, but largely invisible.
		Not sentimental in the sense of painting the poor heroic, or wallowing in their miseries and humiliations, but more of a sad-eyed empathy married to a freewheeling literary license, all wrapped around his rejection of journalistic objectivity in sketching his character studies.

	ABM -- Essay: "The Tradition of 'Poor Folk' in Bykau's Recent Short Stories," by Zina Gimpelevich - - - - - - - - - - - ...
		The goal of the present study is to investigate the treatment of the tradition of "poor folk" in Bykaŭ's most recent short stories, keeping in mind the ambiguity of the epithet "poor" and its various applications by authors at different times.
		In his literary work, Bykaŭ continues that line of quiet resistance to indecency and deprivation of humanity in society that inevitably brings a person to Gogol's type of "poor folk", the type that — out of passion (and different forms of fear are the most common kinds of passion) — would lose its humanity.
		The author feels sorry for his "poor folk" who are poor, first of all, because of their single passion — a fear of the regime under which they are forced to live, a regime that dehumanizes them and creates a very characteristic type: the well-educated informer.

	NPR : Is Bill Cosby Right or Is the Black Middle Class Out of Touch?
		If only the poor were willing to work harder, act better, get educated, stay out of jail and parent more effectively, their problems would go away.
		The poor folk Cosby has hit the hardest are most vulnerable to the decisions of the powerful groups of which he has demanded the least: public policy makers, the business and social elite, and political activists.
		Poor fl folk cannot gain asylum from the potentially negative effects of Cosby's words on public policy makers and politicians who decide to put into play measures that support Cosby's narrow beliefs.

	title The Poor Folk Can Play Hardball Too- Global Policy Forum - Social and Economic Policy
		A deal on drugs for poor countries should be a win-win play - better healthcare, no risk of damage to research and development of new drugs, and a sign of good intent from the west that might help kickstart the talks.
		There is frustration with poor countries, mainly those in Africa, who have demanded a set of more than 80 concessions and exemptions and are refusing to negotiate on them, let alone put them in a list of priorities.
		Such a hardline approach may be understandable after the shabby way in which the interests of poor countries were blatantly ignored in the last round of talks, but it is leading to stagnation in Geneva.

		For example, there is a family of poor folk who have rented from the landlady a room which does not adjoin the other rooms, but is set apart in a corner by itself.
		One evening when I chanced to be passing the door of their room, and all was quiet in the house, I heard through the door a sob, and then a whisper, and then another sob, as though somebody within were weeping, and with such subdued bitterness that it tore my heart to hear the sound.
		Next he lost his hat, the poor old fellow, yet would not stop to pick it up, even though the rain was beating upon his head, and a wind was rising and the sleet kept stinging and lashing his face.

	Dostoevsky Poor Folk Essays - Impact of Prison on Fyodor Dostoevsky's Poor Folk, The Double, and The Idiot
		In Poor Folk, he explores some of the social issues of the day, and the work has even been dubbed of a "socialist character." During this time, he had joined forces with other young intellectuals, and began attending meetings headed by Petrashevsky.
		Dostoevsky created these Paridise-dwellers as folks who did not "strive to find the meaning of life, because their own lives were full of meaning." The people did not need science to understand, they had an inherent knowledge.
		This was his first time spent with these "narod," or common folk, and it gave him new incite into the life of the non-privileged.

	I. Of Our Spiritual Strivings. Du Bois, W. E. B. 1903. The Souls of Black Folk
		He felt his poverty; without a cent, without a home, without land, tools, or savings, he had entered into competition with rich, landed, skilled neighbors.
		To be a poor man is hard, but to be a poor race in a land of dollars is the very bottom of hardships.
		He felt the weight of his ignorance,—not simply of letters, but of life, of business, of the humanities; the accumulated sloth and shirking and awkwardness of decades and centuries shackled his hands and feet.

	Reality, one bite at a time: ‘The protest of poor marginalised people is not considered news’
		It is an unfortunate fact that both on television and in print the national media seems to show an increasing tendency to ignore the problems of working people, especially the peasantry and working class, and the poor in general.
		So there is also a sense in which the sensibility of the average journalist may not really be attuned to the problems of the poor and marginalised.
		So as an institution, we have bought into the myth that big business and the security forces can do no wrong, and that in any case, the protest of some poor folk being displaced in some "remote" part of the country is not news.

	Gareth Morgan - Of super and old folk and poor person's benefit
		So long as they receive their taxpayer-funded annuity to the grave, then the fact that its cost denies government spending in areas of demonstrable need, is apparently of no consequence.
		Most cruelly, indulgence on such a grand scale denies the poor the benefits which society has within its power to deliver but more often, pays lip service to.
		Complete with stigma attached the PPB would be set so low that nobody aspires to it, and must be subject to strict wealth and income tests.
