I think fundamentally the difference between me and you is that you think focusing on choice makes excuses for the system. Where as I think focusing on how you are a victim of the system makes excuses for yourself.

Difference being you can control what you do. You can't control what the system does.
Yeah see I think this is trying to be a Republican who thinks that everything is in your control and blaming anything on anything other than yourself is making excuses, but you know that's bull**** but you still want the Republican view that anything good happening for you is something you did that you should pat yourself on the back for.
