Rich and poor #1 (permalink) Thu Dec 15, 2011 0:25 am   Rich and poor
 

Hi everyone,

Are the following sentences correct:

- The rich aren't different than the poor.
- The rich aren't different from the poor.

- It's not because I'm rich that I should be treated differently.

Thanks
Alexandro

The first is incorrect. 'to' is possible instead of 'than'.
