Every has choices, and the outcome of choices is determined by who someone is. Who someone is is largely determined by things like upbringing, culture, etc.
People may be responsible for their own choices, but society has the responsibility to see how its very structure influences the choices people make.

Sorry, I didn't make my point clear - i was refering to attitude, not odds.

Are we really discussing.... did i just hear somebeody say... Oh, fuck me. *high pitched nasal whine: "It's not faaaaaaaair."
While some of you had some decent points and argueable stances on the issue of fairness and equality, as far as I am concerned you just reduuced yourselves (and not based on BRISK's statement alone) to a bunch of whining Sally's.
So: Sally, Suzie, and Suzzete - I hear they are giving out free manicures down at the thrift store, wanna go?
