These schools will teach sex education and the lgthtd agenda in our schools before they teach black children how to invest, how to balance an income statement, budgeting, the basics of business models, cost of living analysis or financial literacy. Foh with this white supremacy suppresses white people. They suppress themselves. That’s not even a valid statement. There’s a reason why kid’s coding and STEM camps are $4,000 - to outpace and outprice the average net worth, working black family while the tuition is nothing but pocket change to whites. So even if black people WANT and have interest to get into these fields - it takes money to make money is the mantra that hold them back. The average black person cannot go to their mother or father for a $20,000 “loan” from their parents because they want to build the next app out of their basement or garage.

Again all of this assumes that capitalism creates a fixed pie, which is empirically false, otherwise the GDP would stay the same year after year and no one, rich included, would make any money. This is a ridiculous argument.

You realize that when everything becomes monetized, when everything is for sale....(things like health care and education), youre cutting a significant amount of people out from achieving any sort of financial success? Yes theres still ways for people to generate wealth and those people tend to be well off already.

Not saying that poor people don’t have it difficult, yeah healthcare, living expenses, education cost money. But 1. Whites don’t even need a college education to earn a middle class living and 2. prudent saving and investing can mitigate rising quality of life costs and eventually aid in becoming part of the class that benefits from a rising GDP. Poor Black people, even if they want to save and invest, have nothing with which to do that because the barriers to entry for middle class jobs are so much higher for blacks.

Im not disagreeing with the bolded but what youre missing here is that the middle class is all but gone even for Cacs.

Mind you, Cacs themselves are the ones to blame as they happily voted for Union Busting and shipping jobs to China/Mexico to create "trickle down economics".

Ive spent the majority of my life raised around blue collar cacs and let me tell you, some households are lucky to be bringing 80k a year (not poor but barely middle class in todays economy).

Where blue collar cacs of today have the advantage is that the previous generations of cacs were line workers, coal miners, back when that shyt was paying the equivalent of 80k a year AND had paid pensions, so current cacs who are young adults-early 30s have support from parents/grandparents who arent rich but arent broke either.

Also unlike Black Folks who by and large live near major cities, alotta blue collar cacs can live out in the country (lower cost of living by vast amounts).

But eventually the older generations who are supporting them are going to die off (many of whom are raising their grandkids too) and the decay of rural America will catch up to the ones more so than it has already and the level of crazy will multiply.

middle class still makes up more than 50% of CACs breh. If you’re pulling in $80k of yearly household income, it’s your dumbass fault if you’re not saving and investing so you can benefit from the growing pie. These blue collar cacs aren’t living in high cost of living areas like SF or manhattan either, so while $80k a year isn’t extravagant, it’s still a decent income if you don’t have a billion kids (which is a choice) and provides plenty to invest with if you’re prudent. This is all a choice.
