[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This. This And this. Btw -- if everyone "beneath" you who didn't make those "smart choices" and "worked hard" like you supposedly did - had made the "smart choices" and "worked hard" where would you be?[b] There is only room for so many at cushy top jobs. [/b] And those who count marrying someone with an inheritance or a high paying job as why they're entitled to be better off than the lazy poor? Get a grip. You did nothing except be willing to sell yourself. You're not a superior individual. [/quote] LOL, there isn't a fixed amount of "room" for jobs. As history has shown, which you have failed to study, the pie is not fixed and is constantly expanding under a capitalist liberal society. And yes, someone who married or inherited wealth is *BY DEFINITION* entitled to whatever economic benefits that came with that situation. [/quote] The "constant expansion" under capitalism needs to be fueled by equivalent growth in population or else where is the increased demand that leads to growth going to come from? Why do you think countries like Japan are so concerned about declining birth rates? Adding new suckers is the only way to keep the Ponzi scheme that is capitalism going. Sure, there may be more cushy top level jobs as the economy grows, but there are also going to be more people competing for them, which is functionally identical to a fixed amount. [/quote]
