I'm afraid you are right. Segments of our society are encouraged to believe that they have been oppressed by people that want to keep them down. It's easier to believe this, than to admit that they haven't take advantage of the opportunities that are available. There are a lot of people walking around with a chip on their shoulder as to why they aren't where they think they should in life. They don't realize that the problem is their attitude and the expectation that someone owes them something.
Some of the most valuable lessons my parents taught me:
1. You will have to work to support yourself and have the things you want in life.
2. Every job you take on, you should do your very best, whether it be sweeping floors or being the CEO.
3. Treat everyone you meet with respect.
4. Remember that you have to live with the choices you make.
