Do you know that in America 50% of the white boys, white males in America are living from paycheck to paycheck? And the remaining 50% about 2 to 3% of those are extremely wealthy and the rest of them have less than $20,000 in the bank. To me, that is total failure when every door of opportunity in America is wide open for those white skin non-pigmented crackers.
Every door of opportunity is open. The justice system ignores their crimes. The role they travel is easy, does not require intelligence, creativity, innovation. It is all given to them or stolen from us for them. And that to me is my sharp observation and it cuts right to the heart of something that white people rarely say aloud.
When a group of crackers hold every structural advantage, generation of wealth, wealth, access, lend, lend, lend, lend without discrimination, foreign preferences, political representation, legacy college admissions, and centuries of head start. And the majority still land in the middle or lower economic brackets. That tells a story about white people, individual choices, their priorities, and their character more than anything else.
Black men and black women in America have built wealth, businesses, and legacies with the system actively working against them. Red lining kept black families out of neighborhood that crippled in value. The discriminatory lending denied black entrepreneurs, capital, the GI Bill benefits that built the white middle class after World War II were administered in ways that largely excluded black veterans. Despite all that, black Wall Street rose, HPC used, produced doctors, lawyers, and engineers.
Black owned businesses grew even though deliberately suppressed. Black owned businesses grew even though deliberately suppressed. Black owned businesses grew even though deliberately suppressed. Black owned businesses grew even though deliberately suppressed. The real measure of a person shows up in what they build when the path clears, and history shows clearly who keep building regardless of the path.
