Spoiled brats
The people that have worked hard for thier Scion, get an unmeasured amount of joy and satisfaction every time they turn the key. That is the reward for it.
Who cares how others got thiers? What matters is how you feel when the car comes to life. That feeling of earning it, is what moves you. (Pun somewhat intended)

I'm spoiled, but it's because I spoil myself. I earn the money and I enjoy my car because I purchased it myself. But if a parent buys them a car, I wouldn't call the person spoiled just VERY fortunate. Unless they begged the hell out of their parents to get it or else they'll run away.

This should be called the "Bitter _____ing Thread"
I earn my own dough, but could give not a single care to those who get it handed to them. I've worked in Mexico, Brazil, Guyana, and a Ghana in Africa and know the reality of poverty and class.... but, I'm no judge and wasting time complaining or critizing does not one bit of good.
Class systems exist and their always will be those who have and have not.
Those who have not will see it and those who have will generally show it.
I see, I appreciate the beauty, but I understand humanity... take a deep breath and say .....
"No Woman, No Cry"
(I've actually sat in the government yards of trenchtown) Kingston, Jamaica... That place is scary for a skinny white guy like me.
Breath people and Lock this Flame-o-Rama down mods!

Well, this topic had gone about as far as it can with the two sides tossing bricks and tea cakes... 
The only "problem" is see with folks who get handed everything is a lack of appreciation for what they have - at least for many of them.
I know everyone hasn't had their say, but I doubt all that much 'new' will come of this centuries old battle if it's played out here at ScionLife.
