There is no way you can say a person in poverty has a fair shot... This isn't The Pursuit of Happyness, those are rare occasisons. I have no idea how we can say a person who has to work at 16 to support his own family has a fair shot at going up the chain vs someone who got a University degree from birth because they're born into a Harvard family (obviously they work, but imagine knowing you're accepted and paid for. A lot easier no?) | ||

Some people make you work and build character giving you the pursuit of your dreams others give stuff away regardless of what you do. Big difference On October 12 2012 11:36 NeMeSiS3 wrote: Wrong.

You are wrong they are not rare coming from a family that came from poverty in many generations. Please lie more if you don't know what hard work is don't talk about it. | ||

If they don't care, then Biden wins. XDaunt - I missed the entire thing while being at the gym, but if you are writing like this, I'm seriously thinking Biden's won it... | ||
