I so often meet left leaning people with arguments like: "Because you were lucky to be borne there" or "Because you happened to be borne that way".

Honestly speaking, I do not understand this argument.



Do they have some image of souls floating around, then someone gets borne, and they roll a dice to see what soul will inherit the body? And then it's just happenstance where they end up?




In MY world, we are a direct offspring of our mother and our father. I wasn't lucky to be borne as me, I am a direct result of the genetical inheritance of the 2 people who created me.

I am not "lucky" to have been borne where I am, I have had generations of people doing their damned best to create the best possible outcome for their children, thus building a functional state.


Is this perspective out of view? I have never, ever, understood the "luck" factor in it all... It's not like my dad accidently stumbled and fell into my mother while the souls up in heaven rolled dice as to who would take the body.
