Statistically saying, most wealthy people are self made. There are plenty of people who deserve to be rich, but no one deserves to to be poor. Middle Class people aren't rich, they just aren't poor. The situation is not nearly as dire as you're making it out to be. The right to live isn't up to chance, you can still do raise children if you're poor, but it's not easy. I say that as someone who grew up extremely poor, but is now sitting Middle Class at the age of 22. You won't die as a child if you grow up poor, but your family won't have it easy.

Damn that's actually fcked. I would have thought the government would have shown financial support to poor family's with children.

Now I feel bad for giggling at american healthcare knowing it's not joke fcked, it's actually fcked.

No, but if ure born with diabetes and ure born poor, then u simply die... and i must say i disagree on the matter of anyone deserving to be rich. (rich being worth north of 5mil$) a simple proof of this is no rich person has ever worked 100 times as much in their life as a middle class person (assuming middle class is 50k) and just for a note, and nothing of emperical proof i myself grew up in a rather nice part of town with plenty of rich friends, one of them being my dad. To this day i still think of none of them as being worthy of owning more then 100 times what an average person owns, based on both math and morality.

Sorry for typing errors, have a nice day:)
