The dynamic described in the OP is reflected in many places in our country. The "land of opportunity" mantra that has been so long a part of our culture is just as likely to be divisive. After all, if this is the land where "anyone can make it," clearly someone who has NOT made it is simply not trying or doesn't want to or is too lazy, right? We've heard this reflected many times - and it's a variant of us/them thinking.
