You know you come across as an elitist right? With this, and your '"potential' equality in our society" comment. If I am only potential equal to you, I guess that makes me less they you in reality? Starting life in different places is far different then equality. I don't have time for a long reply to this, but I will reply to it. I have some comments about medical care, and one thing that would make it very easy to reduce cost by 90%. |
I am just saying that many people are not as lucky as you OR me. They just don't have the opportunity to move upwards in society or even go to college simply because their financial situation is too poor.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
