Then you have lost your way.
I believe that my father earned my spot for me through his labor.
No, he didn't. You have to earn that for yourself.
The most that your father could have done, was to give you a good start. But, from there, the rest is up to you.
We simply cant and wont share the wealth we deserve with a globe full of competitive foreigners.
You are right, that we won't. But that will be because we don't deserve any wealth. If we continue as we have been doing, failing to invest in our futures, then we shall become a poverty stricken third world society.

How will they sort it out, when we deny them a decent education and we leave them with a crumbling infrastructure?
