As if it isn't true.

And I say it as someone who went to a state school, just like my parents, grandparents...

Poor people just need to try harder, right?

Or do they need to just be luckier?

		Well, yes. Everyone needs to try harder. In China, they speak about 996 (working 9am to 9pm 6 days a week; and since we speak about education, Chinese kids often learn from 7am up to 9pm, and when they are getting ready for University, they pull 12–14 hours a day consistently), in Europe, we speak about working only 4 days a week, and whether it is bad for kids to have homeworks. We all, in Europe, should speak about working a bit harder. Especially those, who are not happy with where they are.
