You really think in reality the american elite worked for what they have? or is this country built from slavery and immigrants/sweatshops overseas? wake up.
The middle class are born into privileged ignorance and their lifestyle is paid for by the blood and sweat of others, your shoes most likely made in a sweatshop for slave wages your food picked and cooked by immigrants your houses and buildings you "work" built by them too.
And you people think everyone else owes YOU something for being born here? how dare they step foot in YOUR country? get a grip.
No, I think the problem is the reverse. We came to this country legally with nothing but the clothes on our back. We worked our asses off with a large chunk of our incomes going to uncle sam while trying to feed our family and afford a house for us to live in. We obeyed the laws of this nation and we adopted the official language.
We did not sneak into this country illegaly. We did not have fraudulent documents fabricated to make us seem legal or to get welfare.
We are now living in a house paying off massive mortgages struggling with stagnant wages, rising healthcare costs, rising insurance costs.
Meanwhile illegal immigrants are getting injured and getting free healthcare, raising healthcare costs for everyone who plays by the rules. They get into car accidents without insurance which again diverts the costs to the people who play by the rules. They resort to crimes and end up in prison, further burdening the people who play by the rules.
Of course, there is alot of generalization there, but you seem to love to genralize.
