"America likes to brand itself as 'the land of opportunity,' but from elsewhere in the world, the cost of that opportunity is shockingly high. It looks more and more like the land of oligarchy, where those with privilege move higher and higher up more and more easily, and those below have to scramble with all their might, sacrificing everything and never making a bad decision to even have a shot at being upper middle class. And if you don't get there? Well you shouldn't have made that bad decision that one time, it's your fault. Christ, even your poster boys for innovation and striking it rich -- Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates -- went to freaking Harvard. Land of opportunity, huh? Yeah, when the next Facebook is founded by a guy working out of a college dorm at Indiana State, you might be able to say that without irony."-- Pete Ross, 2016-04-26
