The poor is invisible to us just as the Mantsios article states. It is invisible in the sense that many people frame the poor as urban black or Hispanic people that have their own culture that need not to be interfered with. On the other hand what people fail to

Accepting Change Change is something that is constantly occurring in our lives. Not a single moment goes by when everything in our lives will remain consistent. Indeed‚ it has become apparent to us that the only thing which in fact survives change is change itself. Change is a natural process that cannot be easily stopped or controlled.

Responses that the Army is highly ethical would come from soldiers who have “internalized cultural expectations” (p. 152).
