barely read English and has the writing and thinking skills of a 2nd grader. Most probably can't comprehend what's being discussed on this site as it is. No need to worry about a foreign language.

69. not really
Because they would have been taught that God had ordained them to be what they were born as...shepard, auto mechanic, bottom-sucking scum, etc. and that to try to raise above that to contradict God's will. The whole idea of improving one's lot in life was a product of the Enlightenment, although some of the upper classes always pushed their limits. Hence, the poor (cough) freeper would be condemned to forever troll cheap bars and sit on sofas with ground-in potato chip crumbs. That was God's will, you see.

74. Oh I agree - they re-ordered it. And put themselves above god.
Then the rich, then the upper middle class, then the poorer middle class and on and on. People from other countries or have-nots are somewhere near the bottom.

I agree it isn't humble like the Elizabethan way was. And they allow for movement as long as it makes them rich in bigger numbers and the middle class, poor & non-americans are weaker...either financially or by number.
