The most oft repeated LIE is that 'all men are created equal'
They are not
It's a LIE told to Americans. Other nations are more realistic
By 'equal', most Americans believe that if they work and save and use their brains, they too can become 'President of the USA' and can 'realise their dreeeeeeeeeems '
We are NOT 'created equal' in the sense Americans say it
Some are born more intelligent than others
Some are born more gifted than others
Some are provided way more opportunities than others
Some are born richer than others
Some have a more influential network of contacts than others
Some are more beautiful/handsome than others
and so on
Conversely, some are born ugly, stupid, disadvantaged, lack talent skills and abilities, are deprived of opportunity, education, support. Some never meet anyone with an ounce of influence, get no footholds, etc.
But the myth continues that all are born equal.
Was JFK born equal to a brain-damaged-at-birth child born to dirt-poor parents living in a trailer in a rural wasteland ? Was that child born equal to JFK or Lydon B. Johnson or any of the extended Bush family ?
Did Paris Hilton 'make' herself, earn her own fortune ?
Did Princes Harry and William ?
We're not all born equal. It just sounds good
