When you compare Australia to places like Somalia, the distinction that you observe isn't the result of privilege, it's a result of what the people in that country did in history to improve themselves.

Yes the white colonists exploited the land and people to put them and children in a privileged position.

Australians were guided under the British to develop industry, take advantage of their natural resources and organize their society in an advantageous way. Australians of the past contributed to their future. Somalians of the past evidently did not.

At that point Australians were still British and if you mean the aboriginals then they were given all the bad jobs if a job at all. How can the native Somalians contribute to their own future when they are slaves? To either the white man or the coin.

I'm going to go on a tangent with this and remind you that European colonial imperialism is the best thing that has happened to humanity in its history.

So many things I want to say to you right now. Unfortunately I would get a ban.

Back to privilege...Privilege is a special advantage that someone or something is given. The children of billionaires are privileged. They didn't have to work to get their fortunes, they were born into them. Entrepreneurs and the industrialists that founded the plutocratic family lines of billionaires are privileged.

Yes and like them being privileged being born into a rich family which they did not choose, I was born in a privileged country that I did not choose.

Working hard, coming up with a new idea or contributing to the economy in any which way and then making a profit because of that contribution does not make you privileged. Does it make you rich? Absolutely. Rich, but not privileged.
[/quote]

People like Jannah are hard workers, where is his profits? The rich get richer the poorer get poorer. Why is this? Because the rich don't have to be "hard workers" all they have to do is kick up their legs and watch the dough roll in.

(except in that you live in a glorious capitalist society and not some shithole socialist prison-country).
[/quote]

Yep! Boy oh boy Capitalism sure is great! It exploits the poor socioeconomic peoples so we wealthy can continue the good life! I sure would not want to live in a filthy socialist country like Sweden where education, healthcare and other things are free and so people like Jannah can never reach their full potential! Nope I sure would not want eqaulity!

Now back towards being reduced to the same boat. The salient issue here is that being put in that boat is a decrease in wealth for you and almost everyone else in your country.
[/quote] 

The money would be spread equally, so yes the rich would be poorer but the majority will be richer.

[quote=The Nexerus]
Ninety nine times out of a hundred, people who have been unemployed for a long period of time have no one but themselves to blame. That's not necessarily your circumstance, but what've you been saying in this thread leads me to believe that it probably is.

Why for speaking freely? For openly stating their political opinion? So much for America being the land of the free.
