In fairness to the DUmmies, I can see how they'd think someone making $70K is "rich," since most of them end up begging at one point or another, and a good chunk of them howl about their hourly-paid menial jobs.
Along those same lines, my dog must think I'm the richest person in the world, because he can see and smell what I eat, and he doesn't get it.
Which is to imply, of course, that DUmmies have pretty much the same perspective as my dog, and indeed many of them live the same way my dog does: wait around until someone feeds them, then go shit outside and maybe howl and bark at absolutely nothing until I tell them to shut to **** up.
I still prefer my dog, who is a good boy.
