4. I'm really not even seeing the benevolence anymore -

maybe that was the case a while back. Maybe to the upper middle class. Top 5% or so. People have these visions of "rising up" and everyone having "equal opportunity". It's a fairy tale. Unless you happen to be plucked from the masses due to entertainment or sports "value" you are pretty much screwed unless you are born wealthy.
