I think that it is not their fault really. I've never said that it's their fault. 'Cos in fact it doesn't matter- blaming them, or blaming anyone else for the matter, does not change anything. It's high time people stopped looking for someone/something to blame. And yes, I agree that lazy was not a good word to use.
Equal chances? Perhaps not. But some people were given chances that they would never otherwise have. They would never get education or their wealth if it wasn't for that system. Nothing is all Good or all Bad- even Communism. My family is a great example of that.
