be enforced or the fact to be asserted.

I started the first paragraph, so use this if it helps.

“Equality!” As much as I hear people saying the word and swearing that everyone on Earth is equal, I do not see it anywhere around me. I have also heard journalists and reporters saying that human rights are necessary for everyone despite what social class they belong to, but the question is, “Do human rights work for everyone?” Marxists believe that everyone should have the same rights in a society; however, functionalists would argue that people need to have different roles for a society to function. People who are born into lower or lower middle classes usually die poor because they are trapped in circle of poverty and the society does not let them escape it by the means of religion and culture, favoring the Bourgeoisies.
