Hmmm, that sounds pretty condescending.
As a cook, I can tell you that a great number of people who flip burgers DO make choices. They may be largely bad choices - which is why many of us flip burgers - but they're choices nonetheless.
Do rich people have more options? Sure. But that doesn't mean everybody else's lives are "on rails".
