Is it possible though that they can just try harder. Sure, I was raised upper middle class, but I’ve been able to make it just fine. The best lessons that got me ahead were the ones where I had to suck it up and do real grinding work. That’s when I learned the most and got motivated to push my way up. You would assume that they would be forced into the grind, but I guess not. In all honesty, college was a joke and I could have just lied about it and gotten to where I am today. I think that having parents that gave a shit mattered the most. They didn’t even need to do much other than give me some basic morals. The work ethic even came later. In summary, capitalism is not responsible for poor peoe having a gazillion children and then not teaching them to be good people. It’s kind of just on them. If anything, the system should limit their ability to procreate by not providing unlimited aide. They should get punished for having children they can’t afford because that’s neglect.
