I guess she never met all the rich kids who lost what their parents and grandparents fought to earn. The ones who maintain inherited wealth are less common than the ones who lose it all drinking, drugging, gambling, driving like maniacs, and in divorce court.

If someone in your past didn't pull themselves up by their bootstraps, maybe you're the one destined to do it. Naww, Fuck That Shit, I'd rather complain and be a victim.

Right?! Imagine taking personal responsibility for your own life and circumstances...a leftist wouldn't dream of it.

I agree, you can complain all you want, or, you can learn some discipline, be a good citizen, and make good money for yourself.

That is actually insane.

It means that nearly half of all the wealth of America is self-made in a generation's time. Social mobility is MUCH SMALLER in euro countries. Sure the distance between pay is smaller (income spread), but so is the chance of improving your condition.

But that means 40% wealth is new.

A lot of people who struggle with imposter syndrome haven't realized yet that they're actually bartenders.

how can people think there is no upward mobility when one of their hero's was a poor black raised by a single mom who eventually went on to become president. Fuck AOC.

She struggles with stupidity. I am still in shock that these twits have a hand in the direction of our great country.

Now does everyone understand why they want to destroy the nuclear family?

They want to keep us all in permanent poverty so we'll be completely dependent on them.

THIS! Not only do they want children growing up without family structure so they are easier to corrupt and brainwash, they want to destroy the family unit so generational wealth cannot exist.

So generational wealth is a thing yes. But it should be celebrated, not derided.

Work hard, have a family, pass what you earn onto your children and give them a better life than you had. Isn't that the American Dream™ in a nutshell?

What I don't get is why does everything have to be some type of competition... My life perspective has always been to be as personally successful as possible.

There's no need to compete with other generations or even other peers. Embrace the ideology of personal victories.

Half the shit this commie says you have to kill your own brain cells to follow the twisted logic. And Robert Reich, last name checks out, first name Third.

80% of that 60% of family wealth was earned by someone that pulled themselves up by their bootstraps. (okay, I made up the 80%, but you get the drift).

Most wealthy families lose all their money by the third generation because their kids are entitled brats.
