Jay,
While I share your socio-political stance on the distribution of wealth in this county, being born with a silver spoon does not insure happiness. Wealthy adolescents have uncommonly high rates of suicide, anorexia and bulemia, chemical misuse and other self-abusing behaviors. It's as if priviledge is some sort of handicap to building character. There's something to be said to being raised like you, where your hard work is the main reason you transcend the limitations of your environment. See, you never thought you'd feel so fortunate to be poor. : ) Toph
