I mean like how libTARDS say white privalage

Privlige based on race isnt real anymore

Class privlige exists

Being born in a middleclass/rich family gives you a giant advantage over someone born into poverty in a poor area

There are parts in the deep south where there's literally no opputunity to suceed unless you are either: really intellectually/phyiscally gifted, or if you join the military

Right wing states have lower economic mobility than left wing states on average

@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ but wouldn’t that data be skewed due to the rise and fall of manufacturing in America

Like how industry rose rapidly in the middle and end of the 1800s, while sectors like agriculture stagnated

Industry was only a tiny part of the total economy in the early 1800s too

@Leo (BillNyeLand) Industrial production is just production of goods and services.

@chad yeah thats different though.

But it's not just right wing or left wing

It's more about the mentality

Of course you're going to succeed if you're smarter etc, infact anyone can work hard and succeed

it's just purely choice 99% of the time

Nah

Plenty of it is genetics

Equal opportunity is the foundation of a free, fair, and prosperous economy

america is a mediocre place for mobility among developed countries

(only the y axis is relevant to what I said)

Who do you guys think will win the 2020 election, and why?

I can’t tell yet

Probably Trump, too much split voting in the Dem Party, Bernie, Biden, and lots of women compared to just one in 2016, I understand most people vote for the nominee but I'm expecting some write ins.

Don't understand why there's so many Dems running,

You could say the same about Repubs in 2016

But look where that got us

Nobody stood out there though

And there was one lady Carly Fiorina

Now we have several women and several high status men

Plus Howard Schultz running would probably help

Schultz would severiously dent the political landscape

Do you think it would help GOP win or DEM?

It would definitely hurt the Dems but there’s a chance that if Trump makes a fool of himself that he could snag moderate Repubs too

The only problem is that everybody hates him 😂

Remember that time Congress had a televized lottery for the Vietnam draft?

The US had a ~13% casualty rate.

Let's have a televized lottery for every Congressman's name. 11 names drawn to die, 60 to be wounded

How about no

y not

Congresspeople aren’t the cause of the problem, it’s the system and the people the system represents
