Thanks for your compliments. Yes, it's difficult to imagine, realizing that you will never improve your station in life, you will never "improve" your life, and even your children will never have any opportunity to improve.
No wonder so many of the underclasses don't even bother to send their children to school. Instead, the kids are put to work, even if it's not hard work, because they can make a dollar or 2 per day.
