Your links are rather long. Would you mind pointing to where it states today the ability to make or lose money in today's economy is about the same or less than before?And that's one reason why your argument fails. Socioeconomic mobility has been flat or declining in the US for decades (there are some differences in mobility between regions and socioeconomic groups).

If Americans did the job, the farmers would be forced to pay them a fair wage, rather than taking advantage of illegal immigrants illegal status as a way of underpaying themMost of the jobs those people do are jobs that American refuse to do as being beneath them or literally are paid peanuts to work. How many Americans were willing to go work at penies a tomato they pick?

But where does it refute the claim that more people are making and losing fortunes in today's economy than ever before?No, trends in mobility are the substance of the entire documents.

These are observations only, like watching someone drown. Not much help. The irony is that thirsty blacks have been led to water. They just won't drink it.
What even are "european prices for fruit", in the mind of americans? I am not sure, because I can buy plenty of fruit over here in europe and don't find it particularly expensive.Ahhh....and there it is. Selfishness.
Because YOU don't want to pay "European prices" for fruit, you feel entitled to argue against a living wage for people.
What if, and I say this knowing how hard it could hit people.....American sensibilities were completely unjust, entitled and unethical.
What if?
Yeah, that was only an illusion to create a widespread loan exploitation scheme.Many are now benefiting from capitalism. India has a thriving small business program built on capitalism, run mainly by women who parlay various skills into salable products. Part of their earnings are dedicated to providing capital for others to start small enterprises.

Everything nice is only a veil before the horribleness.That is sad. The PBS presentation of it looked so promising. Reminds of how Monsanto has ruined so many farmers there.
Right. Slavery is over, Jim Crow is over and discrimination is illegal. Black people are now perfectly free to act like white people. It's not our fault if they don't.I think we've strayed from the main topic which is the American black economic condition and it's causes. If we get back to that you'll see that they are not ignorant of the knowledge needed to advance. They just haven't chosen to put it into practice. If they are content with their condition there's no need for further discussion. However if they are not content it is within their power to remedy it very quickly. Just a cursory study of black culture should reveal this to you.

And you don't see how grotesquely racist it is?
He is, if he expects that the yelling will make the black player act like he was a white player. There is nothing inherently superior about "behaving white."No I don't. Is a coach hollering at a black player racist?

I know. But when my parents spent their winters in Arizona, they would pay pretty insanely cheap prices for things. INSANELY cheap. There are little mexican fruit and veg stands...head of colli. for $1.50....bag of advocados for a buck.What even are "european prices for fruit", in the mind of americans?
