I want to discuss the classes within society. In America, it should be clear that the classes are broken down into four categories (A-D)
Category A is the smallest percentage of people, these are people that do not need to work, and are wealthy to the point of doing whatever they want whenever they want.
This would be celebrities, successful business owners, people that were born into wealth, etc.
Category B is upper working class, a good percentage, maybe 10% of people, they have high paying jobs that do not create any financial stress. The excess funds allow them to take trips, save for their children, and plan for nice houses. These are doctors, lawyers, developers, etc.
Category C is the largest percentage, the working class. They have to put in the extra effort to pay bills, have to save and carefully plan for luxuries like vacations or a new car. These are parents, students, senior citizens, category C does not discriminate. People that start in C generally live their entire life in this category.
Category D is the welfare or other means citizen, this ranges from your NEET that found a way out of the system to functionally disabled people or veterans.
Now that we have established the categories, is someone born into Category A better than someone born into Category D? Are they smarter, or more deserving? I don't think so, but I think that leads into the nature of society. If you are not born into A or B, you will intentionally be kept out of those groups. There is not enough room for everyone to be at the top. So you will go to lower quality schools with other low quality kids, have your way of thinking altered from a young age, be fed false encouragement, told what you are capable of, aren't capable of, how to behave, what is and isn't important. And before you know it, you will be trapped in C or D.
But there are exceptions, there are always success stories of people that are born into lower standards, and still make it to the top. I think the people that make it out always have two clear qualities, they have overcome any mainstream mental propaganda they were fed at a young age, and secondly they have the foresight to see where society is going. If you have the foresight to imagine what the trend will be in five years, it's easy to set a plan in place. Or to use an example, if you know where your enemy will attack, it's easy to plan for a counter.
Take Instagram as an example. Whoever created it had a clear foresight based on Facebook's success and the progression of the smartphone's camera, Instagram is then put out at a time when most people's phones could not even take quality pictures, but it still becomes a success because it's ahead of it's time and a younger generation is there peer pressuring each other into using phones to communicate. It was the trend of the future.
So I think it's clear if you want to get into A or B you need to be able to picture the future or where society is headed, but where exactly is society headed? It's hard to tell.
