Are you normal? I don't mean to sound offensive (I know I will) but that has to be one of the most idiotic statements ever. I feel sad that you truly don't understand what a family is about and that you think income has to do with it. Not everyone is so cold-hearted as you to wish they'd lived with a really high-income family that provides them with "good polish."
This is a middle class family. Cut me a break - the only polish involved is the polish they use to shine their SUV which they think is so amazing. They probably eat at a chain steak joint and think that's amazing. They'll send the child to school and will probably be able to afford private school, but more than likely, won't be able to use their name on a building to leverage the child's admission into an elite school.
Oh and hey, I do make a good deal of change, and I'm not even supporting this.
