Lucky to have such good libraries available? Are you KIDDING ME!?!? I grew up in relatively poor small towns most of my life, where the town library was lucky if it had more than a thousand books. Certainly had no internet. But you know what? I did the same thing rick888 did and I was at that library all the time learning, trying to make myself better. I took advantage of every opportunity that came my way and I made the most of them. I didn't have wealthy parents with connections like so many of the rich spoiled brats I see around me bitching about how "lucky" I am to have a good job, or moaning about how there's so many fewer opportunities around them. Bullshit. Open your eyes. Stop making excuses. If you want something bad enough, like I (and clearly rick888) did, you will be successful. Do some people have more opportunities because of who their parents are and/or how much money they make? Sure, but so what? That's life. I overcame. Rick888 overcame. So can everyone else. Stop expecting things to just fall in your lap and complaining about how the world "isn't fair" and cast aside your damned entitlement complex. The world doesn't owe you jack. You have to fight for everything you want. That's the reality, and nothing these protesters do will ever change that.
