The youtube comments are cancer. I understand his point, but probably not the best way of saying it. There is a comic of this, let me find it.

while i agree with the message of this comic it always annoys me because the kids in the beginning look like they're 60

If you're valuable you're going to succeed. If you can't succeed it's more a sign that you have bad genetics, also, the girls parents were doing a bad job, and that is because they had bad genetics, too. They had a bunch of people over for retarded parties and getting her sick for no reason. Why did they have a kid if they have such poor money making skills? That's because they had bad genetics of irresponsible thinking. They also have poor cultural norms which act as a sort of meta-genetics, because our parents passed them down to us, even though it isn't written in the DNA.
I hate it when people have kids out of wedlock, the parents should be sterilized and the kid should be aborted... I thought the left believed in evolution? They don't make excuses why a species failed only because it's environment changed. That is just survival of the fittest. We shouldn't let the unfit bring the fit down. It's a dysfunctional ecosystem.

Yeah no, the last part of that statement makes it stupid. Say, I've a business, I stood at the head of it since the start. Yeah, someone built bridges, someone built roads, someone did whatever and because of that my business can exist, that's fine, someone educated me etc. Thing is - these people didn't do that out of kindness of their hearts to help me. It was their job to do that, it was too someone's business, they were making money this way. I mean, that's just how capitalism works - people work for themselves (to make a living), and in the process, they create an infrastructure that is used by everybody else to make their living.
Like, it's a nice message and it's right at its core, just the examples he gives don't make much sense.

Are you straight out of /fit/?
Sorry, let me counter argue a bit, Are you saying because someones parents made some bad decisions, the kid deserves to fail?

He had me right up until the end.
Having help doesn't mean that you didn't build it yourself.
Realize that the help allowed you to be successful.... But for many people, they did still build it themselves. Having a little nudge(or even a huge nudge) doesn't mean that you didn't do it yourself.

I'd like to think he's being a little bit more "him" now because he's about to leave office and he doesn't really have to appeal to everyone anymore.

..No, not really, with that clip without the context that you know and I don't, it appears that he's stating that business owners didn't make the businesses that they made because they had help.
hes stating that people who say "i did it all on my own" can go suck a dick

Straight up moronic statement right here. You'll make a fantastic overseer when Overlord Trump comes into power. What makes it worse is you actually think you're right about that. Something tells me you swallowed your silver spoon, bud...

"The first step of making a cake is to create the universe"
You didn't build the house by yourself.
Many people were a part of it. Someone gathered and processed the materials, someone transported them, someone sold them.
Someone invented the technologies which allowed this to happen.
Someone raised the kids that invented that technology.
Someone gave you the knowledge to do your part.
It's an enormously huge chain of things.
Sure, you built the house, but you didn't do it alone.

Who would actually profit from making roads and bridges?
The vast majority of the time such infrastructure is financed by the government.
His point is that you owe society for your success. Your success is built on the backs of other people, always.

Don't I kind of already pay taxes? Like everyone else, to finance the government and form a budget?
And people who make bridges and make roads profit from it. They're [b]paid[/b] for it. It's not a charity, not even one step of the way it is. Government does indeed pay those companies, but government isn't doing it out of its pocket either. People who work there are getting paid. Budgets are made through taxes, trade and stuff, all of it consists of people making money to live. Like, sure, society as a whole deserves some credit for individuals' success, but it's not like they were just elevated by someone else. It's a self-sustaining system.
