You see, this is the problem. You haven't been in the shoes of the people you think you're advocating for, and I get the good intention, but unless you really have been in that position, you really don't understand their lives.
I and many other entrepreneurs I know did not grow up with as blessed situation as you have, and yet I think it's fine. Sure it would have been better if the situation was better, but in the end we all did fine because we tried hard despite the fact. When I see people with victim mindset who just keep saying "Entrepreneurship is only for rich people and that's why I don't do it, the world is not fair", in my eyes they are just losers, because I know from my own experience and countless others that that's not true.
To recap, I know of many people from bad situations succeeding despite their bad background just because they worked their asses off, both personally and historically.
And you are saying people like us should just give up and live a loser's life thinking it's only rich people who get richer?
