Being born to high wealth
Will you challenge the system which is working well for you?
Will you challenge whatever the belief system that works well for you?
Will you compare yourself to low life scums in the middle east or Africa?

I am curiouse how would you answer your own questions, Song?
btw, if you want your threads to succeed, you should talk about vaginas, dwarfs and blood soaked tampons.
Nothing else works here.

Those who were born rich have a moral responsibility to attack the system that made them rich on behalf of those who were born poor. Franklin Roosevelt was "a traitor to his class," and consequently a very great man.

No one who is born to wealth can understand what it is like to be poor. They can imagine. Until they are poor, they will never know.
It is the same for anyone who is advantaged over someone who is at a disadvantage.
Never, ever know.
One can, however, try to change the playing field if one so chooses. That takes enlightenment.
If one does come from poverty into wealth, that's a different story.

Seriously?
Why do you believe that you have the right to dictate what another man must do?
Why "attack" a system that brought prosperity? Is it in order to bring the "system down", so that all can have a mutually shared level of poverty? Really? What sense is there in that?
A "system" does not make one "rich". Most cases of wealth in this country are ones where people are self made. Most people in the United States who are wealthy got that way because they did something that separated themselves and brought a value, and in response; they reaped the reward.
The irony is that people who will never be wealthy tend to remain that way because they think that some "system" makes people rich, and you have to be a part of some "elite" group, or some such non sense. I suppose such a belief is a good way of assuaging the inferiority complex that some may feel. I'm not saying that in response to any of you, but none the less, it is a fair statement on the notion that "systems" make people rich, not hard work, and doing something that brings reward.
Why must something be about "class"? Personally, I came from squat. I went into the Army and spent my time as an Infantryman. Got out, became a cop. Worked my way through college with a full time job, got great grades. Sacrificed recreation for study, and to network. Cut my teeth as a geek in a corporation. Saw a better way to do some things, created a piece of software that changed the way something was done. No "system" did a thing for me. No one gave me a thing. In fact, someone tried to steal my creation from me.
No one has a moral obligation to attack some silly notion of a system. IF there is an obligation on behalf of the person who has become successful, it is to LEAD BY EXAMPLE; not to buck some system in order to give someone else a hand out.
Wealth envy is an ugly thing. People who do not earn it, do not appreciate it, and in most cases not willing to do what it takes to get it. If anyone wants to live like others cannot, they must do what others are unable and/or unwilling. |

Equal opportunity is important. Legislating equal outcomes is a recipe for disaster. |

Better said in two sentences than I through several.
Well done.
You can't force an outcome.
Moreover, it is about time that people need to realize that most "wealth" in this country is "new money"; meaning that the people enjoying, made it themselves.
The "cruel" irony is that so many people want to be wealthy, but they aren't willing to do something that will earn them the reward. No one deserves "wealth" just because they were born. And they damn sure are not entitled to the wealth of others. How parasitic that is... |
