Equality Achieved At Last

[Sava]

My best friend had a serious oxycotin addiction...nearly cost him everything before he was able to pull out of it. He has been in a suboxone program for nearly 4 years and is terrified of getting off it. Painkillers suck...unless you are really in pain.

That sucks.

The question that was not answered is: Was equality finally reached as a result of socialist or capitalist policies?

Screw equality. Promote opportunity.

This, if someone's richer than someone else, so the **** what.

It's generally indicative of a lack of opportunity when someone is poor. (Technically .... always ... only most people don't understand how deep opportunity runs ...)

[Aeson]

If everyone had the same opportunity, there would be no rich or poor. Everyone would be in exactly the same position. (An impossible hypothetical of course.)

Or a The Mad Monk thread, for that matter. Don't you remember why you put me on ignore?

It's basically saying, 4 out of 5 americans have been unemployed for an extended period at some point in their lives. Whoop de do?
