You don't eat a peacock until it's cooked.
It's over, everyone. Fox just called Ohio for Obama.

I've shared my background before, but I'll do it again...I grew up in a lower class household (family of 5; $45k household income until the time I was about 16). Parent couldn't afford to cover the tab for my college, so I got a loan for part of it and worked full time while going to college to pay for the other half of it. Spent multiple years waking up at 6am and not getting home until midnight 5-6 days a week to be able to get a degree while working full time in a warehouse.
Not much of that advantage you describe...
So when I'm expected to foot the bill for others who are in my former situation who don't want to make the same sacrifices I did, surely you can understand why it's frustrating...
Another interesting thing to note is that while some are born into wealth, 80% of millionaires are first-generation millionaires.
