    What really kills me about this idea, is that the children of rich people have no drive or reason to try to accomplish anything. They’re born into the lap of luxury and want for nothing, they could just sit back and let their needs and wants be catered to… but yet they don’t, they go out and start businesses and create music and write books, because the drive to be productive and useful is innate.

    No healthy person who could live comfortably on welfare would be content to just sit on their couch all day, they would just be driven to finding their own ways to contribute.
