It comes down to motivation and a willingness to do something "beneath" you in order to survive. Not waiting around for someone else to take care of you. More people needed to grow up poor, this way they would be better equipped to handle it when it happened to them.

personal responsibility. nobody wants that.

Well they aren't and if they can get away with criminal behavior then why can't the poor?

The leaders of society are mostly scumbag criminals. Lead by example and this is the result.
