They are used to me now as I am an equal opportunity offender. I bash Muslims and Christians alike. The rich Jews keep their secret internally. There are poor Jews and they have no clue as to the rich Jews' wealth.
The advantage Jews, Muslims, and Chinese to use the three most obvious examples is the ability to hold their cultures, which in turn means holding their communities together, and their communities give all of them a lot of support... The Feds have done much to break up the under the table banking of the Muslims, but the Chinese have theirs, and certainly the Jews have theirs... When people can keep their loans personal and the money in their communities they have the advantage on anyone who is forced to go to a bank for a loan.... When money leaves a community so does their culture, and that combined with the absolutly corrosive effect of law on communities is the ruin of many... We push the individual, individual rights, and individual happiness, but it is a bust... Whether one talks of corporations or ethnic groups, those who sacrifice their individualism have a great advantage over the lonely individual who can offer no resistence what ever to injustice... The key to justice is having others to take up our cause... For the most part, law prevents this from happening...
If you wanted to help people in poor areas, first quit exploiting them, and then give them non destructive products to produce and markets for those products... Indian never wore a lot, but at one time they supplied all their needs, and then came the British with their cheap cloth, and the bones of Indian Weavers littered the ground.... We did the same to Iranian Farmers who once fed their nation... Cheap food to help buy oil threw millions onto the street who became the force of revolution and cannon fodder in their war with Saddam Hussein... We do this to the world, but we now produce and export so little that our wealth is leaving us for luxuries... We are trying to become a third world country, and no part of it is for lack of investment capital, but is because every bit of interest has sucked the wealth out of us... And we pay interest to buy anything, and as part of the price of anything we buy... Its a killer..
