Oppressing the poor in order to enrich oneself, and giving to the rich, will lead only to loss.– Proverbs 22:16-16
I live in a very small town where there is a high percentage of poor folks, yet fuel prices are higher here than in surrounding villages where there are somewhat higher incomes. It seems to me that there is a concerted effort to fleece the poor. I sometimes wonder why I never see an investigative journalist taking note of this disparity.
