Everyone who grows up in a single-wide in the woods can have a mansion and a yacht. Well, several actually. Duh.

In bae's world the exception is the rule!

Like Rubot once said:

"We're not a nation of haves and have-nots. We're a nation of haves and will-haves!

Yeeeeeehaw!

I am not so sure about that. Let me ask you specifically, IL. Are you a racist?

Which race are you talking about? The whites down South in the 60s who were unwilling to conform with new anti-segregation laws, and so they started killing blacks and civil rights workers? What are we supposed to conform with?

I read an article about how we shouldn't use the word "racism"--we should call it white supremacy, which is closer to what the problem really is--that is to say, systemic.

I haven't formed an opinion on this yet, but it's an interesting idea.
