You don't understand.
My wife grew up right there where the film was made at the same time the film was made.
My wife would gladly trade today for that time, because they may have been poor by YOUR measure, but they were happy and proud.

This is why I never ever donate any money to any African charity, Charity begins at home! When each child here has all that they need, then and only then should anyone, or our government give any charity or help to foreigners!
They hate American's all over this world, yet we feed them and are the first to step up and send help to disasters, but they still hate us, it is time we stopped it all and started taking care of American's! American's First!!!

@5:35 you are appallingly ignorant. You think these people could AFFORD contraception? They have NO $$, the government wasn't handing out condoms or birth control pills in 1965 in Appalachia.

Joe! Some of your posters need to pass a test before posting.

Wow ,I grew up under those conditions and so did my wife.
WE had a good childhood .
We never had food stamps or welfare , all of us worked , the children , the parents and everyone around us doing something make a dime.

@ Tidewaterbound.
Who said anything about contraception?
You would fail the test to post miserably my friend.
No one needs contraception to stop having children, only responsibility.
Don't have children you cannot afford. Or in other words keep it in your pants! Intercourse is not a civil right. It is a privilege,
A privilege to be taken with the consequences. Keep it in your pants and don't rely on taxpayers to pull YOUR weight and pay for your mistakes.
You are the appallingly ignorant one like every other liberal I know that thinks so backwardly. Why should taxpayers (ie: Government) pay for your stupidity and irresponsibility and ultimately YOUR children and life?
Get a job, work, EARN your privilege and start a family when you can afford it. Otherwise, die.
That is the law of nature. It is not the Governmments responsibility to step in and care for you or those you advocate for. We all would be better off with those in that gene pool not here to begin with.
