Assholes raise assholes

Unfortunately, the reality of social hierarchy is that it is very difficult to achieve a social status above that in which you were raised (with few exceptions). Why is this? Because assholes raise assholes. Everything about your place in life is strongly dictated by your upbringing. Highly educated parents are better about educating their children and they pass along smarter genes. Children raised in broken homes are more likely to raise their own children in broken homes. Unfortunately many of the children in these families are victims, though they may be the children of sinner. They have little control over their lives and without help are bound to become as useless as their sinner parents. So what can we do? We can intervene and help these vulnerable populations. 

We already help vulnerable populations in many ways, such as through programs like Medicaid, Headstart,  affirmative action, and big brother programs. And these programs have proven effective in changing the lives and opportunities of those enrolled. Unfortunately the reality of the situation is that some of our efforts will be lost on sinners in order to benefit the victims. But their is no way of knowing who is who. And so for the imrovement of all society we must help them all.
