Viral “Poverty Thoughts” essay is totally ridiculous. “…not only does Linda say she’s living in seedy motels and stabbing roaches, but she’s also working two jobs, taking a full load of college courses,,, She’s in desperate need of dental work, and her body is full of infection, but she can’t afford to spend the money on medical or dental care. It’s a tragic, tragic story. It’s also tragically fictional.”
