It's the same culture that lets them get away with it.  |
I do believe that you if you're prepared to work/sacrifice (and i mean work and sacrifice) that in the vast majority of cases you can improve your circumstances. But there are a tiny minority who for whatever reason will be stuck in the low paid labour sector.
I think the biggest problem in our society lies with the belief that a vast majority of people (IMHO) think that they are entitled to things such as LED TV's Sky and/or Virgin (You can of course argue that internet is a basic human right) without putting in the required effort or sacrifice.
A lack of work ethic & a sense of self entitlement. BUT it's very easy for me to say that.
