So now we are talking about a wealth gap? Are we now saying that Morgan Freeman is a punk ass whose assertions have no merit? I doubt you will watch this video, because you are too stupid to know better. Again it will blow your argument away about a wealth gap, between those that work, and shit fucks like you who dont.You do know that Oprah blows your whole argument that because of race, black people cant make it in the United States, right? Thats because she used her God given talents and didnt sit on her ass, she created her OWN empire and has lived a luxurious lifestyle, almost like a queen, while shits like you have done nothing but moan and groan that life isnt fair because you are black. Dont you see any irony in your post? Not with liberal thinking, it is hard to see anything.This is another common refrain here. This is another comment from the mouth of a white talk radio host and repeated by sellout blacks and asians. And really that's all it is. Here is an example of why I say this.

It would be foolish to not recognize that we have evolved, and that we're not still facing the same kind of terrorism against black people en masse as was displayed with the Scottsboro boys. It's gotten better.
Are there still places where people are terrorized because of the color of their skin, because of the color of their black skin? Yes. But there are laws that have allowed us to progress beyond what we saw in the Scottsboro boys, and beyond even prejudice that we see in The Butler. I mean, his ability to go in...One of my favorite scenes ever -- spoiler alert -- is him going in and asking for the raise. I think that's one of the finest acting jobs I've ever seen. You know that moment?
WG: Of course. Are you saying, problem solved?
O: I'm saying, problem not solved. I'm saying, that's the beauty of a film like The Butler, and it's the beauty of a film like 12 Years a Slave, and it's the beauty of what we're seeing onstage with Scottsboro Boys, is that it allows people to see where the root of the problem started. It allows people to see, oh, that's where it all started. This is how far we've come. And now, this is how much further we need to go.
Of course the problem is not solved. As long as people can be judged by the color of their skin, the problem's not solved. As long as there are people who still...And there's a whole generation -- I said this for apartheid South Africa, I said this for my own community in the South. There are still generation of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism, and they just have to die.

So I guess Oprah is blaming "whitey" for her failure. Maybe if she just got a job and quit waiting for whites to give her something. Oh how miserable it must to be Oprah with all that hate she has for whites. Why can't Oprah be a successful black person like Clarence Thomas or Been Carson? You'll never be successful until you stop talking about racism Oprah.

Actually she doesn't because that's not my argument. And since the information shows that racism has created a huge wealth gap the Oprah recognizes exists shows that your punk ass assertions have no merit. There is no irony in my post. Because you have made an assumption about me that is laughable because it's so false.
I worked for 43 years. And I have researched and know more about why the wealth gap exists than Morgan Freeman. He knows more about acting than me. Who you going to use next? That stale video from Chris Rock?

I can keep going, but you won't read any of this because it vaporizes the racist lie you make yourself believe. And the issue is too complex for an idiot that thinks they can show a video from an actor and think because you saw him play president in a movie that he has a clue about public policy.
You were a janitor for 43 years...cool.
