SEVERAL MEMBERS of my immediate family have worked very hard, made good decisions, had a break or two, and become rich. and bless them, more power to them. same with several of my friends. the big house, expenxive cars, assorted nick nacks, and lotsa vacation travel, all that sort of thing..
and everybody who has done this will tell you the same thing. they did it by working hard, making good decisions, with a good break or two, like good health and no crimimal convictions.
they will also tell you that anyone can do it; anyone can work hard and make good decisions.
that seems to imply that anyone who has not done it, has not become affluent through hard work and good decisions, has failed either to work hard, or to make good decisions, or both.
assuming all this is true, imagine for a moment that suddenly all the poor people, working class, lower middle class, and middle class people decided to start working hard and making good decisions.
within a few decades everyone in the world would have the living standard of an upper middle class american, with the big house, expensive cars, nick nacks, travel. billions of people, all over the world, with an upper middle class /upper class american lifestyle.
would that be a good thing? a world in which everyone is rich, because everyone works hard and makes good decisions? could we get away with it without destroying the environment?
well, we can try. better get to work...
