Are People Inherently Good?

Are people inherently good? I do think some people are born good, and some people are born evil. Although they are born this way does not mean they are going to stay that way. Everyone changes during their life. No one is truely inherently good. If you are born good you could grow up to be bad, and some people are born into a bad situation can grow up and do amazing things. All this is based on what you want.
Oprah Winfrey wasn't born into the best house and situation, and she didn't grow up with the best of things. She grew up to be a famous and very successful women. She changed from the little girl she used to be. She wasn't born inherently good. She donates to charity and she has done much better for herself. She was born into a bad situation but completely turned her life around.
Maya Angelou was not born into the best of situations. She was molested as a child and blamed herself for the death of her molester. She didn't have the best of everything. She wasn't the richest kid. Her parents were seperated and her situation wasn't good. She is now a famous author. She set goals for herself and accomplished them. Like Oprah she turned her life around.
Shania Twain was also born into a poor family and a not so good situation. She was forced to sing for money in her early years. She was eight years old and singing for people to try and make ends meet. She didn't have the best life, but now she is a famous country singer. She makes lots of money. She has had many hit songs. All three of the women weren't born into the best life, but each one made something for themselves. People do change, even if you are born inherently good you won't stay the same forever. No one is truely and completely good all the time.
