It's not working that way in America. It's been my experience that working and trying harder don't get you ahead and do get you sent to the operating room due to injuries that may be common due to this hard work and trying harder thing (carpal tunnel syndrome in my case). Even as a case manager in mental health I was still below the poverty line.The whole premise that people who try hard should do better is one I don't have any issue with, really,
But being argumentative with a boss and ceasing to care about my job is when I got promoted. Driving people around elevated me put of poverty. And now I'm looking at making poker a full time/mostly full time thing. Because in America hard work is for suckers.
After a certain point I do. All it does is ensore generational wealth that tends to accumulate and stay there regardless of individual effort (such as Trump's wealth despite his abysmal business history and record).. But no-one would ever suggest that we remove the rights of a person to bequeath possessions to the next generation.
