Each of us is born as an individual and the first group that we join is that of family. Without doubt that group defines the shape of things to come. From there on in if we do not put ourselves into a group then someone else will do it for us. It is far better to become a member of a 'club' of your choice.

And there you have it.
Your fate is sealed and hindered or helped by hereditary and genetic birthrights.
The only way to influence your life is to join the club.

When it comes down to 'them or us?' who would you rather be, 'them' or 'us'?

Just depends upon whether or not 'them' have the same 'club rules' as 'us'.
