Meritocracy

The ideology of this term i belive is right when it comes to the people who work for money. When it comes to school it is ot always the same situation because not everyone has the same chances. Maybe at some point yeah it is the same oportuneties but not everone can take advantage of them as other students. For example, everyone can go to a private college when they graduate high school as long as they meet the requiremets the school has, which everyone can meet if they can focus on their school work and make it their main priority but not everyone can do that. Many people have to be the parent of the parent, may others worry about money, and other just get the attention from their parents to focus in school. So yes, working hard will give you the American dream, if and only if we really all had the same opportunity and lived under the same circumstaces.
