Not in environments where job options are limited. The more
educated of my Filipino family members have all done less
well economically than their older brothers and sisters
who instead started small rural businesses. You may say this
is "job opttion" but the fact in many places in the world
the only "job option" is start your own shoe shine business
and take it from there.
Education != Opportunity.
The point of view that you are espousing is quite dependent
upon a particular kind of jjob market that is far from universal.

I'll politely suggest that more credit be given to an individuals
effort. I heard Tom Lasorda state something like Success = Preparation
plus Opportunity. That more or less sums it up for me. Re your mining
reply, I had minimum wage jobs as a teen and in college; for the miner,
he/she has to decide if the risk is worth it or not. When you see
someone with something you want that you don't have, do you dislike them
for having it, or do you think about legitimate ways to obtain it?
