America

So we say US is a free country. I have much theory to dispute that but I am too lazy to. I only want to get this post over with. So lets go with the easier side. Equality? Sure, why not? Equal only in the sense of voting and some stupid political tricks. Nothing is fair in this world. The very difference that happen in the very second of your arrival to this world is dramatic. Rich or  Poor? Smart or Stupid(bump your head~~~)? Dandy or Ugly? This is all drastically affecting your life later. Many people say rich people are those that happen to born rich. I object that wholeheartedly. I do believe in the unfairness of the world. However, I believe differently. In fact, I believe in something that is the exact opposite. I believe poor people holds more prosperity than those prestigious people but less chance. There is a chinese saying, wealth do not pass through 3 generations. The first generation fight for it. The second experienced the poverty so he will stick to a more frugal lifestyle. However, 3rd generation, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, will not know the value of money. Therefore, I say the richest of the richest should be from 1st or 2nd generation. 3rd generation, if by any luck,  can be rich but not AS rich.
