If you think there aren't millions of white people trapped in the same poverty as minorities, you're nuts.

The market reached as high as 14000 under Bush so it was obvious it was going to bounce back but that's not my point.Well you're kind of stupid aren't you? When Obama took office the great recession of 2008 had already begun and the dow had sunk to 6000. It was up to 19,700 when he left office. The record speaks for itself and you are either real stupid, ignorant as heck but probably both.

Since it only applies to "whitey" I guess we will never really know.
While other groups have definitely been discriminated against in our history...we essentially imprisoned 120,000 Japanese Americans during WWII for nothing other than being Japanese but strangely 0 German or Italian Americans...I wonder why? We never had separate entrances, schools, bathrooms or drinking fountains for Asians or Hispanics. Never had laws specifically aimed at one race other than blacks.
You also seem to forget that white women also have benefited from affirmative action.
Thanks in large measure to affirmative action and civil rights protections that opened up previously restricted opportunities to women of all colors, from 1972–1993:
– The percentage of women architects increased from 3% to nearly 19% of the total;
– The percentage of women doctors more than doubled from 10% to 22% of all doctors;
– The percentage of women lawyers grew from 4% to 23% of the national total;
– The percentage of female engineers went from less than 1% to nearly 9%;
– The percentage of female chemists grew from 10% to 30% of all chemists; and,
– The percentage of female college faculty went from 28% to 42% of all faculty. (Moseley-Braun 1995, 8)
Furthermore, since only 1983, the percentage of women business managers and professionals grew from 41% of all such persons, to 48%, while the number of female police officers more than doubled, from 6% to 13% (U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census 1995, Table 649). According to a 1995 study, there are at least six million women — the overwhelming majority of them white — who simply wouldn't have the jobs they have today, but for the inroads made by affirmative action (Cose 1997, 171)
Dude, what you think of me could not be more meaningless.

Ever heard of indentured servitude? Ever heard of Jews, Irish. Italians being denied housing & jobs? Ever heard of poor whites not being able to vote due to poll taxes? Ever heard of women not having the vote? Guess not.That is just not true. Were whites subjected to slavery, Jim Crow, discriminatory housing, etc? Do you deny that happened?.
Just what the Dems' Great Society did. Broke up poor, mainly black families by denying benefits if husband in home & working.Sure, escaping poverty is difficult for anyone, regardless of race. But it was much more difficult when an entire system was geared towards keeping you in poverty..
I know you don't realize it but you are making the case for affirmative action.But there is plenty of generational poverty among whites as well. Children brought up in that situation are highly likely to continue those traditions.
I believe everyone has the same chance to be successful (barring some sort of legitimate mental or physical handicap.) I said this many times leading up to the election and it has only gotten more true. If you're an able bodied/able minded adult and are not successful, it's because you choose not to be - regardless of race/gender/etc.
There were about 11,000 Germans interned...nearly all were German nationals, not American citizens.Germans were interred during WWI.
You should research Nihau as to why the Govt interred first generation Japanese.

Fake News.Remember, fuzz is the one who wants the government to confiscate 100% of everything you worked to earn in your life when you die. Search the thread for the posts.
I missed all of that and I'm not searching through this cesspool to find it. How about the Cliff's notes version of why you want to limit the amount of my hard earned money that I can pass down to my kids???Fake News.
Please do search because I specifically said that I would limit the amount you could pass down to your kids...$5-$10 million and beyond that you could designate where the other money went.

So now white people as a whole need to pay for the sins of the "progressive" left locking up Japanese people?
Actually, we already paid reparations to the survivors of those that were locked up. Whether it was enough is a debate, though.
If you did some research or read a book or two, you would’ve already known that.
So when you think of the US Govt you automatically think it’s white people?
Who is the racist ?

Well then why did you halfwit morons bring it up?
Lmao...that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
I meant we as in a country.
Not to mention, I don’t think I called you guys racist, recently at least.
Must have struck a nerve.
Even if the answer was yes, that only applies to the people who the government actually imposed an illegal action on. No one, even someone who would be in favor of reparations of those Japanese Americans put in internment camps, would say everyone related to (or even looks like) said people are entitled to anything.Here’s a great question, though. For all you kind hearted Republicans: are you upset we paid reparations to Japanese Americans? Should we have not done that?
Yeah, we know. And we are thrilled that we arent!Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m not like you.
