Ah, but how did the wealthy parents get to be so wealthy? (And don't cop out with "inheritance" - that's just another form of "Turtles all the way down".

Goodness only knows who makes up these things, but whoever it is isn't troubled by facts. An hour (actually a few minutes) on the Internet will show how fictional these "statistics" are.
