    I also grew up dirt poor only affording ramen and rice.

    If nothing else, we can acknowledge that choosing to eat Ramen and rice now is not the outcome for a lot of people who tried just as hard as we did to move up the economic ladder. They are often still stuck in the same position because of things outside their control.

      Topple the ladder.

      The ladder is bad, no matter where you are on it, or how hard you try to move up.
