[quote=Anonymous]The outrage mechanics will always cherry pick until they get 1/2 as that is all they can really do. Once they get half they will keep going and get more, that is what people do. People with more think they are smarter but most wealth throughout history was simply taken with leverage or force. While the definitions of what is leverage and force have shifted the down-trodden are under the impression that the random policy mechanism should level the playing field to include retroactively and reset the playing field for their ancestral short comings. People are focusing on the bad parts but America has done some much right, the fact that a system was put in place that forces gradual assimilation of groups deemed undesirable by the majority is just about unprecedented. Problem is due to human nature it is a gradual and incremental process that will never go fast enough for the current people who look around and feel like full citizens but don’t get many of the unwritten benefits. They look back and see oppression but fail to remember wars were fought, deals were made and guns were pulled and the today is a holistic result of that. More than likely their fate is the result of their relatives being on the wrong end of those all the twitter posts one can muster can’t reset that. America is trying but if one looked back through history undesirables were simply killed off. This is the messy path to equality that we are figuring out as a people for basically the first time in human history. The problem is who gets equality will always be a difficult question we must answer an the pyramid scheme of capitalism has only a limited number of seats at the top. America simply consumes too much not to be exploiting someone. And if we don’t ramp up exploitation or dramatically lower the standard of living there isn’t enough to go around where everybody gets a house, two cars and an Iphone. The cute saying of we all get equality or nobody does. Isn’t really true. Righting every wrong isn’t realistic [/quote]
