Wow. This is an incredibly ridiculous and damaging statement.

It's sad that the only way you measure hard work and intelligence is whether or not someone has a six-figure income.

Is the goal of society to improve itself or to spiral into unsustainable state sponsored welfare? A six-figure income was arbitrary definition of an individual who is contributing above the means back to society. Redefine that number as you wish.
