I think green is the only color that matters. If you have it, then no one cares what color you are. If you don't have it, then you sit around wondering if you'll ever catch the people who do have it, regardless of what color they are.

My response: No.

They would stand a better chance, however, if we took the ideas out of Thomas Paine's "Agrarian Justice", where everybody starts on equal footing and goes from there. In the way the society is set up, it is easier for a rich to go bankrupt than for a poor, less resourceful, to become rich.

Likewise, I could make an argument that the Caucasian/White populace can't catch up to Asian populace economically.
