Poor Romans were integral part of Roman civilisation. Without the jobs they did Rome would not have built her great buidings, the Colosseum, the circuses, the arches, the theatres and amphitheatres, the villas, the roads, the ports, the aqueducts, and all the other trademarks of Roman civilisation.

A lot of people now days say the Romans weren't civilised because they are comparing the Roman ways to now a days! If you compared the Romans ways to the Tudors for example you would say they were civilised because the Romans have a way of keeping hygienic and the Tudors didn't, the Romans have a sewage system and the Tudor sewers went straight into the River Temps. The Romans constructed the aqueducts to bring a constant flow of water from distant supplies into cities, towns, public baths, public toilets, fountains and private households. Waste water was removed by the sewage systems and released into rivers, keeping the towns clean and free from cholera.
Many Romans lived in fancy housing and had luxurious furniture while the poor had insulars[bad houses]. The rich Romans had awsome food and liked to show off.
