Not sure how I missed this one.... Anyway, I said bridging the gap between rich/poor, and educating the non-educated was unrealistic, mostly because people are lazy pieces of shit. Motivation has nothing to do with human rights. I suppose the people in Iraq had some great human rights under Saddam, huh?
human rights- The basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled, often held to include the right to life and liberty, freedom of thought and expression, and equality before the law.
I think you'll agree that we have pretty damn good human rights in this country. It's up to yourself to make money and get educated. All the tools and resources are there, and you have nobody to blame if you don't take advantage of it. How would people in Iraq get educated or make money with Saddam in power? We both know they wouldn't. The problem is people in America are lazy as fuck and would rather smoke a joint or drink some beer than go do some damn work or learn something. Everyone here is spoiled and think everything should be handed to them.
