i feel like the more money you have the better you are treated in society. people with a lot of money get the special treatment. they can buy their way out of stuff because everyone is a sucker for money.

Yes people get special treatment. Based on actions you receive different treatment than others. If you come from a rich background people will treat you different than if you are broke.

Yes there are people that receive special treatment. The main one I think of are elderly people. They receive special treatment because they can’t do it themselves.

The upper class definitely receives special treatment. Not only do they make a lot more money than the rest of society does but, the laws that we obey doesn’t really apply to them.

I don’t think anyone gets benefits for who they are. I would say people are treated fairly for the most part, but money certainly does help with how you are treated. The upper class has some advantages.

People that are well off I believe receive special treatment. People that have nice clothes or have something expensive people will suck up to them trying to get things out of them.

I feel like if you are more popular you are more known and treated better in society. And people that do heroic things like veterans. Better and get discounts on items in certain stores for serving their country.

Especially in this town it just matters what your name is to get special treatment for example getting pulled over with kelton they just let us leave after they found out who it was.

I believe that lots of different people receive special treatment. Such as famous people. But I also think that the people who need special treatment don’t get it. People with mental illness are often shamed for talking out while celebrities get what they want for singing a simple song.

Their are people who get special treatment because of a variety of different reason. Most people that I rich get a different kind of treatment then people that aren’t rich.

In our society the rich and famous get special treatment or if they’re unique from the norm. For example, the rich, in a way pay less in taxes, and the unique get pandered to.

Yes, there are many people in our society who get special treatment. From political leaders (both corrupt and true) to celebrities of the revered films to the reskay ones. This can also apply to what I call “reverse racism” aka giving someone of a particular group special treatment for something their ancestors went through but not themselves. While yes these groups of legal citizens should be recognized and share the same rights as us, it still happens.
