Racism rears its ugly head

[Babagounj]

Give every worker the $15/hr living wage , watch inflation kick in and the poor will still be poor.

That is possibly one of the less thought out things you've said, and that's saying a lot.

You are advocating a slave class.

I suggested no such thing.
I did suggest that by giving all workers a new min wage nothing will change.
The next demand will be that $15/hr isn't enough .
They will want to double it again, and again ,and again.
They will only be happy when the gov't mandates what their wages should be.
Do they show that they have any desire to educate themselves into a better paying field of jobs?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

The govt already mandates a minimum wage---they failed to appreciably adjust it along the way.

 

[Sportello]

No, you are saying no matter what we pay workers we will always have a lower class.

Your comment is nothing more than a feint dog whistle.

We will always have a lower class.

 

[Sportello]

We will always have a lower class.

But that 'class' should be provided the dignity of having a decent standard of living for working a full time job.

Poor means not being able to to maintain a standard of living. @Baba gounj used the word 'poor'.

Don't make excuses for him.

I'm not sure how that destroys racism.

Exactly. You don't get it. Racism is a two way street. White people can be taught to be racist towards others just like black people can be taught to be racist towards others.

Ignorance knows no boundaries of ethnic cultures and types.

It's a two way street.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

I'm not but for you to say that there would no longer be a lower class is simply not true.

 

[Sportello]

I'm not but for you to say that there would no longer be a lower class is simply not true.

Someone will always be 'lower', but to say that paying a living wage make no difference is ignorant.

History proves otherwise.

You're not a good student of history. Oh wait only black people have experienced racism?? In your eyes I'm assuming you believe this.

Yes I know reverse racism is such a huge problem in today's society. SMH

See you're labeling it reverse assuming only black people go through racism. It's just not true. Racism is not just a black problem. It's a people problem.

 

[Orion inc.]

I'm sure Hispanics and Muslims in today's society never experienced racism. Just like the Irish and Italians in the early days never experienced racism.

I know, I agree. White America has experienced so much racism and been held back the past 500 years. SMH

Moreluck is adding something to the discussion.

He is pointing out that BLM leaders have no real solutions to the problems the complain about.

Your cartoons use false and slanted dialogue to smear Trump.

Which add nothing to the conversation.

I was once attacked in the army for being white.

3 African American thug punks, who were only in the army to avoid jail, attacked me and my buddy for attempting to use the break room on a Saturday evening.

We had 2 pinned down when the MP's arrived.

3rd attacker was arrested later that night.

They admitted they wanted that break room to be "BROTHERS ONLY" that night.

This happened 2 weeks before I discharged out after 4 years of service.

So, you were saying?
