Another useless thread pointing out the obvious. Of course the system is going to benefit the rich. They have the money. They have the influence. They have the power to protect theirs. The average working guy doesn't. And never will. So he might as well get over it and accept it. The only chance he has is a higher education in which he can learn a skill in which he can use it against his employers by moving on when most needed. That's what capitalism is founded on. Capitalism is founded on those who have the big money to invest and make more. It is what it is. The rich shall get richer and the poor will remain poor and if they are willing to work really hard they might get into the middle class. What is the bunk is when you hear someone say well if you are really willing to work so hard you have a chance to become wealthy. Yes there are a few success stories but all in all the odds are slim to none. But one can have a decent quality of life by working hard and that is the most the average person can hope for... barely making it by. Any other lines of total rhetoric to protect the system are just that.... garbage. It is what it is. Accept it. Move on. Work hard. Have a cold one when you can. The system has nothing to do with the so called American dream. That is a fallacy. Always has been though.
woe is you......go live in another country and see how you 'barely make it by'....then you might figure out why so many came to America....
