if you apply statistics about the masses to your individual expectations you will probably achieve a state of averagosity. yawn.

each of those kids, as soon as they realize the importance of it, can educate themselves in preparation for life. if their school is substandard, they have to work a little harder than the rich kids. I'd say that that prepares them better than the rich kids.

I don't disagree that the well off children have a head start. It would be silly to discount the environment that people live in. There is nothing stopping someone willing to work hard to improve, though. it's not quite survival of the fittest...more the prosperity of the fittest.

Dana, i hear your message, though. you are sympathetic to the masses, and feel compassion for those less fortunate. fuckin communist
