So you take my concern for the fate of others as a sign of unhappiness? Do you equate your happiness with your lack of concern? Can I be a happy person and still feel the way I do about the subjects at hand? This is interesting, you say essentially that poor people are poor because they're lazy and/or stupid, poverty is a choice, etc., and you say it with a smile and a wink and a hop in your step because you're so happy, and you see me as unhappy... Why?
Oh- concern is a state of unhappiness, isn't it? So do you maintain your regressive, ignorant worldview as a means to remain happy? I'd looooove to know.
