I'd argue that the US awards its less priviliged citizens much less oportunity than most other industrialized countries. There's a lot of poverty in the US, and huge differences between rich, middle class, the poor and the really poor. Most are in denial about these problems, and think this situation is fine because they like to compare to developing countries with even bigger poverty issues (in this case India), forgetting that most industrialized countries actually treat their poor people better.
