Compare and contrast the Greasers' and the Socs' experiences with their right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

Do they both have the opportunity to pursue their happiness? For example, their educations, their jobs... Do they get the same amount of recognition in the news if something tragic happens to a member of their crew?
