Ok, I agree with that. It's really outdated (like 80 years!) bur 'The Road to Wigan Pier' studied working class poverty then, and one of the arguments it makes is that often those in deprived situations just prefer to spend money on drinks, gambling and such like as thats the only kind of happiness they can reach. Obviously it is abit of a middle class view but I think it applies suprisingly well to the problems of today.
