They are typically the ones that don't understand how hard it can be to pull your self up from the bottom of the food chain.
People that worked and busted their ass to be well off would never just "assume" that anyone else that can't do the same is lazy.. The reason is because they know how hard it was and how lucky they got, to get where they are.

see my other posts where i clarified my use of the word lazy. I never assumed that everyone who isn't successfull = lazy. I was pretty clear who I am talking about.
FYI, i grow up for a good portion of my life poor with a single parent, I busted my ass for every penny I ever made, never cheated no one and never got any assistance. I worked myself through college. Don't be so quick to think I had a silver spoon in my mouth, quite the opposite. I know it's harder for some than others, but everyone can do it. And I've seen a lot of people that choose not too and are rewarded for just collecting checks and being irresponsible.
