Mainly like our parents

When the income distribution is sticky
The social implications are icky.
It's not a question of merit.
Rather it's what you inherit. 

Thinking that the reverse is true
Most people see no need to undo
A system that is inherently unfair
Their beliefs are why they do not care.

Wonders from the Subconscious

Having an intense dream in mind
In it wondering what's there to find
Does it only show that which we fear
Or is the message far less clear?
