I was talking about you. You think white felons don't deserve a second chance.
Read the article, figure out what it says, and try and think about it. Maybe you will learn something. I will start you off; it does not say that any felon doesn't deserve a second chance, it is not about felons. Come on, I think you can do it!

It is about felons in that part. And you think white felons don't deserve a second chance.
It really bothers you when studies can actually provide evidence that black men face a serious barrier of racism in the job market, and other places too,but most especially in the job market, because that really calls bs on your entire belief system doesn't it?
"And again, absent the continuing power of both personal and institutional racism, would the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, staffed by Bush appointees, have found that the Kodak Corporation was paying black workers less than similarly situated whites, promoting them less frequently and when they complained, either harassing or firing them?"
Opps.
Opps.
"Author Andrew Hacker notes that in studies of black and white job-seekers with identical résumés who apply for publicly advertised jobs, we find incontrovertible evidence of "systemic discrimination that cannot be attributed to differences in skills between comparably educated blacks and whites." In one study, undertaken by the Urban Institute in Chicago and Washington, D.C., in the early 1990s, applicants were trained for jobs with nearly identical résumés to present themselves in exactly the same way in interviews. The result: Black males were three times as likely to be rejected as white males."
Hmm, it's almost as if the deck is loaded for the white male and not against him? Can this be?

The result: Black males were three times as likely to be rejected as white males. Other studies have found that among applicants who were offered jobs, whites were offered higher salaries. Another study discovered that whites' applications were more successful than blacks' even when the whites had criminal records and the otherwise identical blacks did not".
Wow, so it's easier for a white male to get hired even if he has a criminal record and the black applicant is squeaky clean. Huh. It's almost as if we need some sort of policy to address this, institutionalized, disparity in pay and hiring...I wonder what we could call it?

It doesn't call bs on anything. Black culture is fucked up from 400 years of white oppression. Addressing these socio-psychological problems left over which are holding them back is the key. In black culture, doing well in school is considered "acting white". The "thug life" is the set of values blacks are embracing. Your continual bleating about Unfair Unfair is counterproductive, and itself, racist. J'accuse!

Everyone is against them. WHite people are the only people who are not allowed to be proud of their race. Everyone else can have race based groups advocating in their interests. WHite people aren't allowed to.
If you can't see this race based double standard, you're a fucked in the head moron.

Ohh I see many things, but to just whine about them and blame my failings on them.......
The USA is gradually changing from a white based society. Imagine all those hispanics and blacks in commercials now-a days...

Then face facts.
After Reagan's huge tax cuts to the rich and spending cuts, he was of course unloaded on by the biggest weapon the left always uses which was envy. But there is little question they worked.
With his tax cuts to the rich, comes more tax revenue too for the rich as they are encouraged to invest and spend, plus more rich came to America and less moved away from it. Take a look:

Plus all income classes benefitted after Reagan's tax cut for the rich
http://www.census.gov/hhes/income/histinc/f03.html
So while the rich got richer, we all got richer too.
Same thing in the late 90's.
The poor are getting poorer because government has been growing at astonishing rates the last few years, that means less business/investment confidence, which means a stagnant labor market and not as much oppurtunity or competition for new jobs that push up the cost of labor and ultimately make lower classes better off.

Because he didn't understand it, he also said it in 1980 before he even saw the positive effects.
If you'd like to read about it's right here, more commonly called supply-side economics:

You can suck my enormous cock and take the load in your eye. White people have a right to self preservation and a right to desire to increase their numbers, just as any other race. Your anti-white racism doesn't make you cool.
He really gets gross.
