[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd be a dream hoarder if we had kids, but we're upper middle class and child-free. I guess our enormous tax bill and lack of resource consumption means we're contributing.

What a load of shit this is. [/quote]

Of course it's crap. Just because I help my child succeed doesn't mean it's a zero sum game and no poorer children can succeed.[/quote]

I get so sick of the media saying that white, rich kids have a leg up and POC and poors don't have an equal chance at success..  No one is stopping anyone from getting a top education or good job, they have laws against discrimination in this country.  The playing field is level IMHO.[/quote]
LOLOLOLLOL!
Yeah everybody follows the law everything is equal everything is 50-50 yeah![/quote]

Only someone very out of touch can honestly believe that the playing field is level.  [/quote]

The playing field is level with respect to the law. That's all there is and that's all there should be. Life is not a perfect balance of equality. I wasn't born with a physique for sports, nor am I as intelligent as many of the people I've met. [/quote]

In the end we are arguing on a scale as always from Darwinisim/Capitalisim on the one hand to Socialisim/Total Redistribution on the other hand.  I think we can all agree neither extreme is useful but the US on the capitalisim side has generally done better than communisim, socialist regimes on the other side.  Even Europe the most successful socialist model is only successful due to a very homogenuous population and when diversity does occur the system begins to collapse.  Maybe look to Canada with a more socialist model but their economy gets crushed by the capitalist US.  Bottom line the capitalist system has been working fine for years in the US.  There is no need to move towards socialisim.  There will always be different classes in the US which is a good thing and a requirement for a functioning society[/quote]
