Richard Rorty and Globalization, the poetics of identity and social hope

Well, Richard Rorty and me and a bone to pick. First of all, I do believe that in our society we are moving towards a trend of distinct social classes. However, I disagree on the reasoning. I believe that a major reason why people end up the way they do is because of the family and social class that they originally had when they where first starting out as children. I think that learned behavior is a very influential thing that molds human behaviors. I don't feel however that your are necessarily stuck in these social molds. I feel that it is our cultures fault that we are moving towards these two distinct social classes, but I disagree on the "standardization" of the two behaviors of the classes. Our society generally teaches us that we just need to take what we have. I disagree with this. Most people feel that because they don't have money or rich parents, they cannot be successful. I disagree. After reading alot of Carl Rogers writings on the humanist perspective I believe in Maslow's theory of self actualization. I believe that everyone has it inside of them to be the best that they can be. However if you have grown up in a home that has taught you that you aren't smart, rich or powerful enough to get what you want, you won't. If you believe it, its true. The only thing stopping people from being rich and successful is themselves. I really believe that you can have anything you want, you just have to work hard enough for it. To say that you are stuck in into one class is simply giving up.
