CMV: Hard Work doesn't always lead to success

The notion of "all you need is hard work" is just laughable. People love to act like that's the case, but it NEVER is. Every successful person, no matter what they are known for, got to where they are by an opportunity given by someone else. Hard work is needed to maximize said opportunity, and likely to even receive such a chance in the first place, but it is not ever the sole deciding factor. People can work hard their whole lives and get nowhere because circumstances didn't go their way and we all need to remember that.

Amazon and Bezos can argue all they want about how their presence improves the economy, it would have happened without the giant tax breaks that the company doesn't need. Yes, they are still spending a ton of money to set up these centers, but Amazon is a BILLION dollar company and they can afford to take a hit to expand. The fact that they chose to act in a way that absolutely will impact poorer individuals is really disheartening.

See it seems like you’re not understanding what people mean when they say success takes hard work. People don’t mean that working hard means that you will automatically become successful. But nobody becomes successful or stays successful for very long without hard work. And that’s what people mean.
