The notion of "irreplaceable skills" in relation to the type(s) of skills that are rewarded with absolute top-dollar in the modern American economy is borderline laughable ... how many of the richest 50 or 100 Americans are doctors or laboratory researchers or Nobel winners?
With that said, I won't occupy shit - the only portion that carries weight with me is the notion of unequal/lack of opportunity in the United States. In fact, the best-rewarded "skills" appear to be "born rich" and "born white" (in that order), closely followed by "born male."
