[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Much easier to blame people of another race, gender, socioeconomic status -- [b]whatever than to just recognize that the world is a big, big place; that it can be tough; that it's not always fair; and that - despite all of this - if you work hard, treat others nicely, and keep your perspective, you can probably scratch out a pretty decent life for yourself.[/b] In fact, if you do these things, your odds of scratching out a serviceable life for yourself and your family is probably better now (for most people) than it has been at any other time or place. The problem is that you are also more likely to be bombarded with Bad News 24/7/365 than you were in the past. [/quote] Translation: ignore systemic issues [/quote] These changes were made to ADDRESS systemic issues. You just don't like the new rules. Oh well.[/quote]
