How unlucky the world is. Poor kids in Ethiopia or Sudan that wish they had a chance at life for being poor achieving but just werent of the chosen.
Jared was bribed into Harvard with a 2.5 million USD pledge in 1998. Adjusted for inflation that's about 5 million USD.

So elite liberal institutions grift too, and people still scramble to get their children into these places. Imagine Harvard with its huge endowment, still taking pay to admit students...
Jared is not the problem. The US' obsession with wealth and privilege is. And most on this forum participates in creating this atmosphere. They just don't have the connections and set up in place to properly grift when an opportunity presents itself.
