    people at the bottom should have more resources, but we can’t force them to make good choices with those resources.

    that’s the issue you fail to see. that many people choose to live shitty lives despite whatever they are given. that is the ugly truth.

    you can’t force people to live positive lives. you can’t force them to get help. you can’t force them to utilize teh resources available to them.

    why is it that poor immigrant kids do so much better than poor domestic kids even though they have far less resources? because they have drive to succeed and make a better life for themselves.

    some people are just lazy. it’s not a matter of competence, it’s a matter of them not giving a fuck about anything outside of gratifying their immediate wants.

    like the people who take out huge loans, get good jobs, and then don’t pay the loans back so they can party and travel.
