Equality of opportunity, not of results. That is the driving mentality behind our socio-economic system. America is void of guaranteed results. Many go hungry. Many feast, and know not the pangs of hunger. But either way, dedication, hard work, discipline and self-reliance have created some of the richest, most powerful, and successful men and women of our nation, regardless--or even despite--their backgrounds. If that's barbaric, I'll take barbarity over civilization any day.
