Was there a study done on all these black twins? (Though I was referring more to the bit about starting on the same foot. Being born into poverty vs. being born into privilege is not being on the same foot.)

You fail to understand liberalism then. This isn't true.

Now i do concede that it is harder to make your way out of poverty, but not impossible. Otherwise nobody would ever do it.

I agree with this, as would most reasonable people.

Without delving too far into psychology, there are many choices made consciously, semi-consciously, and subconsciously. There are many irrational choices made based on one's state of mind. There are choices made out of desperation and out of fear and out of anger. If everyone started on the same foot, we'd all understand this equally.
