I think I would agree more with the radical antithesis than the conservative thesis because I believe everyone should access to anything especially the things the things they need. I think inequality should be abolished or at least greatly reduced. I think inequality can be bad for everyone, children, and adults. After all, everyone descends from their parents so it is assumed that we would only have opportunities based on our parents social and economic status. I believe I got accepted into Wayne State because of my low-income household. I could never afford to pay for college, so I’m blessed to have scholarships given to me to extend my education. Although I do believe I worked hard in high school to be where I am today. I think is it necessary to motivate people because motivation does not come naturally to everyone. I think inequality is the result of the way we organize and practice society and the way the government keeps social classes in place. Discrimination and unnecessary privilege doe have a lot to do with it as well. Most people who don’t have much don’t get to experience life or purchase things at ease like upper classes would. Lower classes barely have enough to buy food, so I know they don’t even look at things they want to purchase just for the sake of having it because it is simply just not important to them at the time of needs. I believe they choose needs over wants.
Most people don’t even get to buy the stuff they need or even go out to eat with their family on the weekends. Especially being in a Mexican household and only having a man to work while women and child stay home. It can be difficult, but most families end up pushing one man to be able to work and push his limits through labor to be able to buy his wife and child the things need and a little bit of the things they want. My family holds to that and expects me to find a man to work and take care of me and my future children. I can see why they say this witnessing my grandma working 6 days a week to be able to pay for bills, food, and even gas to go to work the next day. I don’t even remember my dad having a job growing up. I do remember my mom having to work which kind of had an impact on our relationship because she would come home tired, and she had to basically do a man’s job to provide for her family. She struggled so much to fend for herself. The women in my family suffered because they were let down by the men, they trusted to take care of them. I see why they wanted me not to go through that.
