Theres so many incorrect assumptions here its hard to know where to start....

1. the vast majority do NOT have equal opportunity, you are a fool if you truly believe that. Heck even if you can go to a major school, you can't afford to be involved in the social interactions that determine future income. There is a social club-if you don't have the money you aren't part of it. Your odds of true success are therefore far lower.

2. The left has very little interest in completely equal outcomes. Mostly they are interested in a outcome floor. IE no matter what X will be the floor, and the majority will do better then that.

But hey if making false claims about an entire set of people is your thing, and believing them....have fun. Meanwhile in reality.....

Hillary isn't going to do Jack **** for the middle/working class.

She's pandering to her base early so true liberals like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders don't pick up (anymore) steam.


It's never too early to save face!

1. That is life. Deal with it without crying about it and turning it into politics. And many, many people have come from nothing and made it.

2. Nonsense. They are interested in class warfare and any stupid "argument" they can run on to get the ill informed to vote for them.

There is equal opportunity. No path is the same for everyone and there will always be people who have it easier than you as they grow and reach for their future. That is life. You can not change that without taking away freedoms and hurting the opportunities of others.

There has been so much whining lately from the left about fairness. LIFE IS NOT FAIR. That is how life is. Grow up and quit being so damn ignorant looking to capitalize off the dumbest among us, because that is all this is about. More power and control for the leftists and the government. That all this really comes down to, as always.

BS....you can sit here and spew all the crap you want...

So, you are telling me only certain people can get grants to go to college? Or is the money there, they just don't know about...or do they just not care?

Being social? Yes, I'm sure there are certain groups that you need to be in to "really" make it. Blah blah blah...

In the end, it you want to be successful, it's up to you...nobody else...the tools are there to use...whether you think they are or not...

Keep spewing the leftist mantra....

Yep, that inept, lazy, entitlement base that blames everyone but themselves for being in the gutter.

They'll slobber all over her. These are exactly the kinds of words they love.

Hillary is going for the low information voter.
They are the victims of society and she is going to raise them all to middle class status.

Inequality has been around longer than the US has been in existence.
Yet we are going to eliminate it if we vote for her.

Not everyone gets to marry someone and use that to be a senator in some place she's never lived.
