What you refuse to accept is that the millions of white immigrants were given nothing by the government. Almost all were poor and disposed and arrived with the contents of a single suitcase. From the day they either walked down the gangplank of their ship, or the ferry from Ellis Island, their choices were work or starve. There was no welfare or food stamps for them, no free health care, no OSHA safety benefits.Joe, white men who have faced no real obstacles need to stop trying to lecture people. YOU and those like YOU are the obstacle. You talk about my father. Now, what would have happened if he had got the GI benefits he deserved white man?
He would have got a college education in the 1950's thereby starting a path to increased wealth. He would have been able to get a government-guaranteed low-interest home loan, thereby able to purchase decent new housing that would have accrued wealth over time. He could have got the same low interest loan Joe Manchins daddy got to start that furniturre business which allowed Joe to have the capital he needed to go into business on his own. The lives of every member of my family would have been positively enhanced white man.
He was not unable to do those things because of the ordinary difficulties a white --- like you talks about are part of life. He was denied access to these things because of decisions made by whites. You don't seem to understand this because you've never faced it. So don't lecture me about life white man, because you've had it easy no matter how much you whine about how tough things were for you.
You don't want to talk about pragmatic solutions because you refuse to realize what the problem is. There is nothing wrong with affirmative action, the problem is the white male attitude of entitlement. Your asses are not entitled to every job. Not every person of color who gets the job is unqualified. Not every pasty white mf who gets the job is qualified. Qualified non-whites get passed over for scrub whites more often than the reverse and whites have had what you consider affirmative action since America was a colony. If you want pragmatic solutions, start recognizing these truths. Your ancestors illegally immigrated over here and arrogantly decided that the governments of 500 nations did not count.
Your ancestors invaded Africa with bibles and missionaries who sold guns to tribes they favored then purchased the prisoners of war and shipped them off to South American, Caribbean, and American colonies. Today some of you in this forum do not talk about that part and disingenuously talk about blacks selling other blacks as if the continent of Africa was not full of different nations and tribes.
You have been shown over 300 years of government handouts to whites and despite several centillion dollars spent on white economic development, there are still poor ass all-white shitholes in this country. Yet you and others like you tell us that after 58 years we should already be caught up.
Spare me the lectures chump, you aren't being blamed, you are being held to account. The root cause of the problems blacks face and our First Nation brethren such as hellbilly face are due to white racism. I've graduated from college. I have worked in Executive positions. And I recently finished a major project. This is not about my failure white man, it is about yours and every other white person who thinks like you.
