Upward mobility
From Conservapedia
Upward mobility refers to a person or family achieving social and financial advancement, generally achieved through hard work, education, and thrift. Liberals ignore this concept on purpose, to justify socialist ideas such as income redistribution, minimum wage, and rent control (see Entitlements).
