The Allegory of the Cave

Yes, I am on the side of Socrates.  "Better to be the poor servant of a poor master, and to endure anything" (a splice off of the original quote) in most cases people who are poor and dont experience life as "they do" appreciate the smaller things in life depending on the person. For example I am born and rasied in what Louisville calls the "ghetto" and the "hood" of Metro Louisville. I do admit a large amount of people here do appreciate the small things in life and they hope for the better for their children and the youth of the West End (the area where i live) in a way it resembles the cave because we see shootings and horrible crime on a daily basis.
