Free choice: republicans and our society

This society has definitely changed over the years.  The way people think has changed dramatically.  Everything I hear nowadays is about ridiculous TV shows, materialistic items, and about making money.  People would talk about making money or that they have money or they're on the path of "success".  Honestly in my eyes, If your not making close to a six figure salary then your not "getting paper".  People want to make money but don't think about how or what steps to take or don't really know how too.  I have my plan, I have my goals, I know what I have to do in order to make close to a six figure salary and be able to get what I want when I'm ready for retirement.  People complain about being broke and do nothing about it.  Broke people spend money on things they want instead of  things they need.  People with money spend their money wisely and are thinking 4 steps ahead then broke people would.  Republicans are going to be in control of the U.S and everyone is complaining that things will be harder.  Republicans think about business and money and want to see the economy grow.  We live in a capitalist society, someone has to be on the top and someone on the bottom.  Democratics are struggling and want things to be equal but nothing is fair in life, nothing will be equal here.  The only way to survive in this society is to do what ever it takes to move up on the ladder.  Do I wish things were equal in this society?  Yes but nobody wants to be equal really, there's always someone who wants to be better than everyone else.  The problem people have with republicans and they don't realize is that republicans want to be different and be better then everyone else and they'll go for it.  Other people want to do the same but the question is are they going to try? Are they going to take a risk?  Because a republican will.

  1. I don't think we should strive for 'equality' as in everyone is equal or the same (because people aren't all equal or the same), but I think we should strive for equality in the sense that everyone has the same access to opportunities. For example, if you have poor parents, you have the same opportunities to be successful as a rich kid if you have the same drive.
