The brilliant @anatosaurus has new research suggesting that the best way to talk about how to create more economic opportunity is to emphasize that the powerful are sowing division, particularly along racial lines, to divide ushttps://www.salon.com/2018/06/10/a-unifying-race-class-narrative-blueprint-for-progressive-victory/ …

attention: America IS economic opportunity. Nowhere else can you start in the gutter and end up in a castle. you did it, zuckerberg did it, NFL players do it. EVERYONE has the chance to succeed or fail on their own merits and worth ethic. free stuff isn't the answer

This demonstrates how, despite incredibly surges in productivity (hard work) almost every American has had their wages decline in real terms (measured against what you can buy/cost of living) while the wealthiest snatch more and more of gains. Refute.

The rich will always get richer and will do it easier, that’s just how the world is.

It's true this is common. Also true we have had period of greater and lesser mobility (chance anyone can make it.) The difference is how the rules are rigged. US now more unequal than ever - only comparable time was right before Great Depression.

Equality of income or status is not guaranteed, just the equal chance to make it or fail. Some make it, some fail. It will always be like that. Once you’ve “made” it, you will probably stay there and your kids will have a better chance. Nothing wrong with that is there?

Nothing is guaranteed. There are rules that encourage upward mobility & rules that make it much harder. Right now, a greedy few have rigged rules in their favor to ensure they keep more & more of wealthy the vast many working people produce.
