    Would Jared Kushner be were he is today if he was born and raised by a family that had to pay rent their entire lives and owned no property like ever?

    If Trump wasn’t born with a silver spoon and a business handed to him by his father he would be selling used cars somewhere.

    Any Psych/Soc 101 class will teach you the strongest predictor of the future success of a child is the socioeconomic status of their parents.

    The whole Horatio Alger story is such BS. Yes there are the Bill Gates and Michael Dells who change the world through hard work and ambition. But we all know their name because it’s so damn rare.

    Most of us are probably doing better than our parents did but we had a stable home and no fear of where we would sleep and what we would eat enabling us to focus on bettering ourselves and moving up Maslows Hierarchy.

    Kushner has no concept of what it means to struggle. He’s as much a success as Kylie Kardashian.

    Kylie Kardashian is actually more of a success, yes she came from wealth but she built an actual succesful company from scratch.

    moral of the story, any white person who criticize black folks, even though carry some truth, will be crucified and labeled ignorant and of course racist. If this came outta a famous black celebrity's mouth, black people will be all ear.

    Can I criticize a Jewish person without being called an Anti-Semite? Cause stereotypes are dangerous.

    why can't you be specific?

    many white people have criticized Clarence Thomas, Ben Carson and those of their ilk; don't think they've been crucified.

    Nah, lower than that. He would be in prison. The only reason he isn't now is because our criminal justice system protects the wealthy.
