I hope they didn’t get her white privilege card….

Actually, people aren’t are born with the same ability to earn. Some are born smarter and have more of a capacity.

Actually, smart people (those with degrees) are awarded more money than less smart people, they seldom actually 'earn' it. And that degree doesn't indicate superior smarts. Knowledge doesn't equate to wisdom.

Wtf, doesn’t any dressing come with this salad?

/——/ What a bizarre twist of logic. What makes you think higher paid workers don’t earn it? Their jobs are more demanding and stressful. And if less educated people are so wise, why don’t they get a better education so they can earn more?

No, they did what they were supposed to do. We blacks don't need to see what white people tell us we need to see, because we have approximately 1/3rd the wealth in proportion to our population that we should have.

Uh, again, buddy, you are suffering from the Socialist Disease in its worst form.... the belief that the world owes you a living.

Did your ancestors get bad breaks? Yup. Guess what, so did mine. I don't spend every morning worrying that someone called Grandpa Ludwig a Kraut.

Apparently, they're quite content with what they earn, but it doesn't take a genius to earn more money. Also, we're talking about highly educated people that don't produce anything of value.

Their jobs are more demanding and stressful.

Lots of jobs are 'demanding and stressful' but aren't highly paid.

Some want to deny the system of preferences based on race that whites are afforded. This slideshow points out the many ways whites have advantages. "White privilege refers to the societal advantages that white individuals often experience due to their skin color, leading to disparities in opportunities and treatment."

I love my job and it suits me to a tee, highly productive without being demanding and stressful, no need to chase after more money as I have plenty.

I'm still in 'life's school' and learnin' new things every day.

The most prevalent privilege in the U.S. is "I work for what I want" privilege. Luckily, it is available to everyone willing to . . . you know . . . work for what they want.

True, but most are led like sheep to the slaughter. Worse, we have a generation that is so privileged and entitled that they don't think they should have to do actual work for a living. God help us.

It just doesn't worrk that way for everyone.

And here we see a poster harping about a typo.

The simple fact is that your fantasy doesn't WORK for everyone.

You don’t seem to understand the difference between wisdom and knowledge. Wisdom can, but doesn’t necessarily, come from experience. Knowledge comes from education, that can be formal classroom training, on the job training, or hard knocks. Like wisdom, knowledge doesn’t always come to people. Knowledge can also be very specific, a person can know a great deal about one subject and be abysmally ignorant about everything else.
as for “earning” money, someone who understands how the futures market works is more valuable to a brokerage company than someone who doesn’t. He or she earns that increased salary. A technician who really understands how electronics work and can fix them is more valuable than a “circuit pack switcher” who randomly changes out circuit boards until he fixes a problem.
