re: When did the idea that we're all "created equally" become a widely held belief?

Why can't we tell kids that doctors don't come from construction workers and waitresses?

What makes or perhaps made America great was anyone could become successful and make society better. It didn't put limits on people based on class, so the kids of those construction workers and waitresses could achieve a dream of becoming a doctor. America is built on the success stories of people from the lower classes rising up and you want to send them a message of stay down where you belong?

Because that would be a lie. But we could certainly tell them where the vast majority come from, and probably should.
