Quote:
...The cultural left condemns a rich person for his wealth.
The cultural right condemns a poor person for his poverty...
Albeit an ostensibly apt observation, such condemnation is deserved for:
Not wealth, but the attitude that stealing is merely part of business. Not poverty, but the attitude that the world owe's one a living for no particular reason.

<ahem> cultural relativism - the principle that people should not judge the behavior of others using the standards of their own culture, and that each culture must be analyzed on its own terms </ahem>
edit: this is closely related to Cultural rightS
