>> I remember reading articles based on some study that said many low income girls get pregnant because they see no way out of the situation they're in (economically) so they figure "Why not?"
Also it's true that the devil finds work for idle hands. The less productive work you do, the more important leisure activities become?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
