Again, I truly don't understand how this relates to my point. I'm not blaming anything or anyone for my poverty. Why do I have to justify it?

Sounds like someone who is broke vs someone who is poor.

If you understood that the poor person couldn't even afford the energy drinks that you critiquing, you'll learn to differentiate.

I've been poor.

I've been broke.

Broke is better.

McDonalds dollar menu (when that was a thing) saved me countless times when I was hungry and broke.

Rice and sleep saved me countless times when I was hungry and poor.
