I guess that is what I mean when I say equal opportunity. If there are standards for something everyone needs to meet them to make the team, get a job, etc. I’m all for helping the less fortunate but poisoning the minds of the poor to see all their issues as someone else’s fault or to throw money at problems and not look at individual actions is definitely not helping. And a fact of life is that some people will look better, have more money, or have more opportunities than I will. That is life. The sooner we teach that again the better.
