Status Seakers and the upwardly mobile

<p>i'm only fifteen and the reason that I want to attend an Ivy league school is because I want something behind my name that most people would regard more highly, and then I can try and work my way into the powerful class in this country to try and make a difference. You can't deny that one has to fight his way through bureaucracy and high up mukkety mukks in order to make something powerful of yourself. It's just something that I'd like to overtake; I see how screwed up things are in media and in politics, and government and such, if we were to eliminate some of those problems that exist, some of the smallest problems, then we could finally say that we are a country of humane values and only then could this country have substantiated patriotic values. You can all see by my CCname what this is all about... and that is why I want the Ivy experience- for empowerment so that I can help this country to follow a righteous path.</p>
