'‘White Trash’ — The Original Underclass'

[donttread]

The loss of manufacturing to china, mexico and other low wage third world countries has hurt white middle class workers the most.

And that clearly delights progressives around the world including those here in America.

But as America's ability to process raw material into finished products declines so does our economy overall and our position in the world.

even clueless liberal academics and career politicians should understand that is bad.

but they dont ubderstand because they have bought into the globslization bull$#@! all the way.

They want a service economy all based upon a very vulnerable,very fragile grid

LOL I'm not sure what to make of most replies, it reminds me a bit of when someone claimed the earth was round. Huh? You're kidding right? An excellent book I am reading on the topic is 'White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America' by Nancy Isenberg. I may post some quotes from it, but again this article is worth a read.

"Defense CEO pay was 44 times that of a military general with 20 years of experience and 308 times that of an Army private in 2005. Generals made $174,452 and Army privates made $25,085, while average defense CEO pay was $7.7 million.

In contrast to wealthy individuals who became even wealthier, those who were sent to do the actual fighting comprised disproportionately high numbers of working class Americans. In the combined efforts of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom, almost 7,000 U.S. soldiers have died. More than 970,000 veteran disability claims have been registered with the Veterans Administration." Jonna Ivin http://www.stirjournal.com/2016/04/0...p-trump-trump/

With each passing generation the super rich use their undue influence over our corrupt government to tilt the table a little more in their favor and to favor their offspring over ours. That is one reason why we need a reset. Before we
go to a consumption tax we need for them to foot the bill for some of the damage they have done.

Ah, what the hell, I'll take the bait.

White privilege is what happens when white people dominate the world for three centuries, but the demographics disagree with them.

I've never been White a day in my live, so can't say what it's like to be White.

But whenever the phrase White Privilege is used, it's to outline basic "human" activities and experiences White People never give a second thought to, and the list is too long to document now and if you just liook at The Justice Report on Ferguson, you'd see what Im talking about... but for example have you ever been stopped my the police for nothing more than driving a car .... more than 30 times in just 5 months? If so, I'm sure you'd no less think that was harassment.

I have encountered plenty of police harassment in my life simply looking a bit different than other whites(long hair,beard tattoos)Believe me,it aint reserved for blacks
