    People don’t live in poverty “because they refuse to move”

    They live in poverty because they are stuck there, and moving to somewhere else is incredibly expensive and difficult

    Your worldview is utterly detached from the reality of the common person

      Not sure how that’s “detached from reality.”

      I’ve moved a ton. It has never cost me anything other than the cost of renting a moving truck and sore legs for a few days. Certainly beats living in a place with no job or some random low-paying job.
