RE: Entitled, complacent and lazy

Entitlement(Privilege)
I have often thought about this feature, which some of the people on this planet have only because they were born in a "better, more normal, higher quality" country.
When I just remember, how much less effort my peers in America, Germany, France or Norway had to have, to have what I had to strive for with all my might (and probably not achieve completely).
That privilege and the ease of getting everything they put their finger on, led to the development of laziness in such people.

It would be nice to put all 8 billion people on the same starting line, on the same field and set the same goal for everyone.
Well, only then would you see who is made of what material and who is really good.
And not whether someone has more rights and privileges than someone else, but to everyone as they deserve.

and I have few complaints

I believe it's not "I have nothing to wear" 🙂

Why do you think some people feel so entitled?

Because they don't know, they live in their own world like a glass bubble. The only question is until when...

Some feel like they have the right, just because they were born in a country and system that gave them much more (and that they didn't have to earn), and they don't know how hard it is for someone else to acquire something they consider waste.

Traveling and getting to know different cultures and ways of life of other peoples on other continents is the best way to show an individual where he is and whether he was lucky or not to be born in a rich country.

Not all of us in this world have the same starting points and not everyone is able to get an education, work, earn and live the same life...

Those who are not privileged can try and, through work and commitment, get the most they can in the conditions they are in and rise above the average level.
That's how all of us from shitty countries fight 🙂

I don't have a problem with people working and trying to get ahead, that's how it's supposed to be. I don't like entitled people who do nothing but still feel they deserve everything.
