Plenty of people got rich in Russia too. That doesn't mean it was something open to anyone.



Sounds like something losers tell themselves to feel better.

Please don't post unsubstantive or baity comments to HN. It leads to lousy subthreads, like this one.

A better approach is: if you have a substantive point to make, make it thoughtfully; if you don't, please don't comment until you do.

Edit: it looks like you've also been breaking the site guideline that asks people not to use HN primarily for political or ideological battle. Could you please fix this? That word 'primarily' is an important marker—being on the wrong side of it means being a negative contributor to HN regardless of which views you're arguing for. There's more explanation of this here:
