It's Called Perfect For a Reason

So today I was listening to this very intriguing debate. Just imagine two people who graduate at the top of their class. One from an upper class town and one from a lower class town. Which one do you think will go further?

Well first let's look at the main priorities. The kid from the upper class town is probably only worried about his grades and thinking about his future. On the other hand, the kid from the lower class town has other pressing issues within the lifestyle he is living in. He's probably thinking about his family, taking care of his siblings while his parents work, and studying extra hard because his school doesn't provide him with all of the necessary knowledge.

And then the kid from the lower class town doesn't even have enough money to afford to get into a top college like the kid from the upper class town does. So to answer the question that I posed earlier; the kid from the upper class town will most likely go further. Since he can afford to get into a better college, he is more likely to be hired for a better job.

Imagine giving that same opportunity to the kid from the lower class town. That's what a Utopian Society is for. Equality. Equal salary. Equal education. Equal opportunities.

It's called a perfect society for a reason.
