I'm just a little tired of the, POOR ME, black discrimination. It's not only black or Hispanic. It's low income. I live in Tampa FL and in a predominantly mid to lower, working class neighborhood. The lines at my precinct are usually 45 minutes and sometimes more. I'm really sick of the blathering overkill of black and brown discrimination. I see good government jobs, almost predominantly black workers. The black person discrimination has been reduced hundreds of percent in my lifetime. And I'm happy for that.
The problem is income, not color. Corey Booker makes 175,000,00 bucks a year. I have never made more than 50,000 a year in my entire working life. Why aren't you comparing Clarence Thomas, or yourself, or millions of other well-to-do black individuals? Get a damn mail in ballot. I do.
I don't deny, there is still prejudice coming from all the different color, race and creeds. But just as you went on saying the word, "equal". Until people can afford to, pay bills, live in a safe neighborhood, afford food and rent without choosing which one this month. The ability to know, if you get sick, you can go to a well qualified health care facility and not wait for hours to see a doctor. On and on. There is no equality for, " all".
