You wrote in 2009 that "Rewarding people for having serious problems tends to grow those problems". Based on what I read written by you, you are a pretty smart person, so, assuming that you aren't poor since a short time, what is your reward for being poor?
- DoreenMichele 6y agoAs stated above, I have a serious genetic disorder. It's supposed to be killing me and it's supposed to cost up to a quarter of a million dollars annually to treat under conventional medical approaches. There's no reward for being poor. My poverty hasn't grown. I used to be homeless. I've gotten myself off the street. I've saved an estimated $9.5 million over the last 19 years in terms of what should have been spent on medical care for me and my oldest son but wasn't because of the diet and lifestyle based approach we have pursued. I would like to get support for what I'm doing via Patreon. I face credibility challenges and sexism is a factor and yadda. I would appreciate it if you would leave me alone. Someone who claims to be familiar with my writing and can reference something I said in 2009 but has zero understanding of the reasons I remain poor and then asks questions like this that amount to victim blaming isn't something I need in my life at all.
