You guys are seriously confused

i'm honestly confused about the intent of malice_morons most recent post or how it's pertinent to the discussion.

I love how conservative libertarians always bemoan the government, though their real beef should be directed at multi-national corporations.

he includes ad hominem attacks against republicans (i'm a democrat in america but a socialist in reality), so is he just assuming everybody is a republican just because black people are capable of committing crimes?

In the definition of the American Dream by James Truslow Adams in 1931, "life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement" regardless of social class or circumstances of birth.

he defines american dream, but does not apply it to the situation.

I know your own twisted tea party conception of the American Dream is rife with social Darwinist overtones, but that's simply not the general consensus.

more ad hominem attacks but still no point

And you can examine the poles of society as representative of the general disorder. If royal lines of inheritance and elite social circles exist, where all real economic, social, and political power are vested, how does every person truly have a shot at "rags-to-riches"?

so he's still talking about the 1% and how if you're not a part of it, you must be eating out of trash cans?

I'm not arguing for equality of outcomes, I'm arguing for a more complete equality of opportunity. Economic, social, and political opportunity have been concentrated in a very specific sector of the population for a while now

they'd have to leave the ghetto, first. end the worship-of-poverty, end the inequality.

And it's definitely not "the government's" fault. I love how "the government" is such a monolithic thing to you guys. It's cute.

who the fuck blamed the government? i mentioned citizens united and how they gave the rights of corporations the same rights as individuals, but that's calling out the corporations and not government.
