> regular people would be jealous of how kids who were wards of the state lived

In this utopia you describe, I'd think all kids lived like kings.

Learn like kings

Grow like kings

Dream like kings

Give back like kings

Utopia has a really low bar if we get it from treating foster kids like middle-class kids.

Status is relative. If everyone is a king, no one is a king.

History is not my forte but it’s funny to use kings in this metaphor.

So lower class kids (through no fault of their own as well..) should not have access to higher education? That's was very weird of phrasing. What about making education accessible to all people regardless of their who their parents were instead of trying to make people jealous?
