Privilege ?

Unfortunately its life for many. One thing that people might not see is that maybe Richard's parents or his grandparents or whatever were in the same position as Paula. Just fortunate that Richard gets to reap the rewards within his lifetime. Hopefully people like Paula don't quit and find a way to give their kids or kid's kids the start they never had. And I hope people like Richard stop being such Richards.

You expecting me to read the whole fuckig thing

That's your mistake

That about sums it up.

I like the cleverness of the last two panels. It really drives the message home.

I've lived in between Richard and Paula's worlds - this is sooo true! It's so sad.

So many god damned willfully ignorant comments by those who most likely grew up like Richard >:(

Here in the western world we are supposed to be living in lands of opportunity, but way too many with opportunity are the Richards while too many of us Paulas are left to fall through the cracks, then critisized. This is one of the main reasons why I am a dyed in the wool Socialist.

Pretty cool. Inspiring.

No
just circumstance
do not envy and measure yourself against someone elses success

That was me on the right side of the strip.

This is a great post. I appreciate it

I feel like shit because my life is sort of like Richard

Well I know I joined the army to pay for my college

Very good commentary!

I really don't see what the point of this is.

I didn’t read it but I thought I come on here and leave a comment anywho 🙂

Spot on
