I come from a struggling middle-class family.
My parents have virtually no money to send me to college.
I worked my ass off in high school and graduated top of my class.
I got into Wellesley College with a full ride thanks to the generosity of the wealthy alumnae — the 1%.
So excuse me if I don’t whine about how the wealthy screw me over.
I am the American Dream.
