Honestly unnfair governments exist, corruption also exists, infact systems even fail. But history has shown us that inspite of all this we as human beings can still push through and then create opportunities for ourselves, not because we may everything, but because we have the power within us to choose not to let anything stop us.

Okay let's look at people like Elon Musk. He grew up in Pretoria South Africa during apartheid. And as a result of this he faced violence and bullying, and his environment wasn’t even encouraging.But im spite of his background he still chose to start small, by teaching himself programming language and eventually moved to the United States were through his efforts and hardwork, built companies like Tesla and SpaceX.

So yes, the government plays a role. But what we do with our lives is still our own very responsibility not their. Let me end with this saying by Bill Gates:
If you're born poor it's not your mistake. But if you die poor, it’s your mistake.”
