Guardian,
I respect you and I do not enjoy making you feel this way. My defense program is now running full bore. I feel real bad because I do value life, but I must eat, and a few other dumb arses make people paint a poor picture..
Yes, there are those who enjoy inflicting pain. And there are those who are hungry. Decades ago, my wife and I lived in central Florida with no air conditioning. Our bedroom had no windows. I looked for work every day, but being unskilled at the time and one legged, there was only so much I can do. Many employers offered me opportunity, but my disadvantage stopped me from having a descent paying job. I remember when we had 19 cents for a dozen eggs, we ate well that day. I remember, to my wife's dismay, picking up cigarette butts off the sidewalk. When the good ole boys asked me to go fishing for dinner, I was more than happy to go. And we ate dinner.
There are those psychos out there, but there are also those who will do what needs to be done to eat. Intent is the difference.
