To focus only on class and education is to ignore individual agency. Regardless of circumstances, I cannot fathom how anyone living in the United States of America can cry about oppression when they live in a country that abounds in opportunities. No one here is clamoring to get into Mexico to find a job. When our poor people live in air-conditioned apartments, with refrigerators, and televisions, while the rest of the world lives on less than $10 a day, claims of oppression ring hollow.Thanks for the daily joke. It was pathetic but a joke anyway.
