Why America Is The Greatest Country On Earth

[gtc08]

I never said that, at all!

All I said was if your parents were poor, and you wake up and say life is unfair you wont get anywhere.

If you come to this country with zilch you can possibly expect much outside working for it!

That simple.

yea but you also said you wouldnt hire a minority if they had the same merits as a white. how exactly is that having an equal shot at a job if your denied it because of something you can't control.

whatever happened to judging the persons content, character, qualifications, instead of his skin color?

You set the scenario, I just answered the question.

We are not talking about a persons content, character, or qualifications.

You said equal merit, so toss all that out the window.

We as humans as a whole, not any particular race, help those we like. Its salesmanship.

If you had more in common with the black guy that might tip the scales to him too.

You created a rather generic scenario and I answered honestly.

when you typically hire somebody, you look at the person as a whole, not just his qualifications. thats why they ask questions about you, and run background checks on you to make sure you arn't a criminal.

gtc, you are a perfect example of a white person that really has never worked under blacks long enough (if ever at all) to know blacks sometimes are just as prejudiced and racist as you think only white people sometimes are when put into positions of power.

i worked at a place, we had one black manager...he was top dog at entire place, that openly said he was going to promote as many of his own people as he could into other positions of power.

had several black managers while working there. all of them favored black employees, but none were quite as obvious about favoritism as the plant manager.

was that guy racist? um, you betcha...100%

hows that for competition gtc?

govt is largest us employer with plenty of black folks in charge.

what i really think you ought to do instead of getting out the us, is to first move to a predominantly black large city and only look for employment at black-owned businesses and/or govt type jobs with blacks in charge of the hr department.

i actually heard on radio here the other day, some loan company saying its goal was to increase black home ownership. so instead of writing loans to anyone that qualifies they are concerned with black home ownership. the term bho itself is ignorant and stinks of prejudice and racism.

maybe romo can show you around charlotte, nc area.

speaking of the south, not sure if this still is allowed to be done, but one time i was driving on i-75 through georgia, i heard on radio the black business yellow pages being advertised in macon, georgia.

i had to stop the car and take a peek at a phone book. lo and behold it did exist.

i dont suspect youll name that type of thing as being prejudice or racist.

why dont you apply at those businesses gtc? let us know how it works out for you.

America is the greatest country on earth because doc mercer can sit in his shack where everyone knows where he is and post the most vile, libelous filth about the president and the government with no fear of them coming to get him like a true facist government would.

the difference is though i'll give people the benefit of the doubt until i'm in that situation with that specific person. i don't categorize an entire group of people as bad apples based off some bad experiences i've had with them.

every person is different. labels are for people who are to lazy and ignorant to meet other people.

It's a no-win situation. When companies don't make loans to underprivileged minorities who can't afford them they're being racist. When they do make the loans, and the borrowers default and lose their homes, they are the victims of racist predatory lending. (In itself a racist and condescending concept, in that it implies that the minorities are too stupid to understand the terms of the loans.)

I love the people that bash Fox News. It really is hilarious. I am a Conservative myself and I'll admit, they do show a bit of bias for being pro-American. And there is nothing wrong with that. All these people are pissed that they are the #1 network in ratings across the board. Liberals just bitch about it all day long and don't think about why that is. They appeal to the majority of the country (God-fearing, family-loving people, mostly in the middle of the country). Just because those elitist liberals don't agree is the reason they hate it so much. Their networks continue to lag in ratings and it drives them nuts. The same goes for Talk Radio (Air America, what a disaster). They hate that they don't have the forum.

They do not acknowledge that the there are people out there who disagree with them. And until they realize that, they are going to be unhappy campers. It's going to be fun to watch how much the pro-Obama coverage on the mainstream media will hurt them when it comes down to the serious race. It was good during the race with Hillary, but come the general election, flaws will be exposed and the "perfect-candidate" is going to have some real issues.

But I'm getting off topic, Fox News succeeds because they market their coverage to a large segment of the population that has a similar view. What's wrong with running an organization that way? Most do... Liberals blame Fox News for everything under the sun, but in reality, they are just pissed that there are God-fearing, family-loving people. There is no room for you God-less and elitist liberals in middle America. And I'm in CA....ope:ope:ope:ope:ope:ope:

It's really obvious you have no experience in the real world.

In the real world...you will get burned by your way of thinking.

Just the facts.

 

[eek.]

You dont have a right to hire who you feel comfortable with? whether it be because of alumni, organization. church, etc?

this is typical liberal agenda.

Weird stuff...especially from a Jew.

Did the Germans teach you nothing Romo??

Jews in Germany owned the business interests and were kicked out of the country

how is that a parallel?

Im not Jewish btw

 

[ScottL]

You posted in favor of Israel a few times Romo. You gotta be a Jew. And mah second bestest forum buddy! Love, eek

 

[paftraft]

you still didnt answer the question. how are people supposed to compete if there behind the 8 ball already for being who they are. that employer would only accept white people. so if you're not white, you can't get the job. how exactly is that competing? if there were no affirmative action, companies would be doing this all the time because the makeup of the country is predominant white at the moment. not to mention the fact that the government has historically allowed that favoritisim.

That's what the utopian thinkers like you were saying about Rhodesia in 1979.
Rhodesia was always arguably the most progressive country on the African continent, and was certainly the most peaceful in terms of race relations and tribal conflict. Until it became Zimbabwe & then the once shining beacon for Africa, have turned into hell on Earth?
The "majority" today would probably emigrate anywhere they could, now that they have their "majority rule".
