The Federalist "Let’s stop letting perpetually miserable people define the moral terms of our lives. It’s time to make generational ambition honorable again."
"It is a profound irony and injustice that many of the youths driving the rising socialist movement come from wealthy families and have done the exact opposite."
"The recent wave of primary victories by Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) candidates has the media celebrating a web of grassroots populism and a supposed “working-class uprising.” But look past the revolutionary rhetoric, and you’ll find a much more sinister reality: Modern American socialism isn’t being driven by the proletariat; it is being bankrolled by a cabal of deep-pocketed, ultra-wealthy leftists.
"Historically, socialism has never been about uplifting the poor; it is an insider game designed to consolidate state control while shielding the wealth of the ruling class and ransacking the middle class along the way. To pave the way for this scam, these trust-fund radicals must first destroy the independent American family.
To do that, they have weaponized a nasty little phrase in our modern, grievance-obsessed culture. Whenever a person achieves success, buys a home, or launches a business, the bitter arbiters of online misery waste no time throwing an insult disguised as an observation: “You’re just doing well because your parents had money to help you.”
I"t is delivered with a sneer, intended to induce a deep, paralyzing sense of shame. The implication is clear: If your parents sacrificed, saved, and built something of value so that your starting line in life was a few paces ahead of theirs, your achievements are somehow illegitimate.
"This is nothing more than envy disguised as compassion. It is psychological warfare against families ensuring their offspring do better than them — a core tenet of humanity. It is time we stop apologizing. We need to completely reject this manufactured guilt and return to a time when providing a better life for your children was considered the ultimate civic and moral triumph. This achievement is something for children to hold up with immense pride, not hide in the shadows." . . .More...
Then there is my uncle who said "I'm leaving them nothing. Let them get theirs the way I got mine."
