Congratulations on making it in. The problem with these kind of discussions is that you can always find examples where the system worked in ways that favored those who would in general not benefit from it. I think there is no question that rich people on average have a huge leg up compared those who are not. That’s fundamentally broken. The fact that you, as member of the non-rich, were able to use that to your advantage doesn’t change that overall conclusion.

> "I think there is no question that rich people on average have a huge leg up compared those who are not. That’s fundamentally broken." We already know that it's fundamentally broken but we also know that this action isn't going to change that. So what exactly are you trying to say here?

  The way I read it, your initial comment seemed to defend the current system for non-rich people since it allows a few non-rich to take advantage of it (at the expense of other non-rich.)
