Working class anybody once this immigration bill passes. The new "citizens" get an exemption so if they are hired the bidness doesn't have to pay the obamacare penalty. Pure madness going on right now and all we see are the clowns in DC nodding their heads up and down.
No political ties to men in power (the famous "white privilege" only exists for rich folks)
No advantages in colleges, corporations, or other institutions that utilize affirmative action
No minority scholarships
Is there any advantage at all to being born white and unconnected in the United States in your opinion?
Compare this, with the amount of white votes Romney lost due to his complete about face on immigration. He thought he would "gain" votes, but instead he turned his back on white voters, and lost even more. Imagine, a candidate who didn't care about the white majority. Romney's stance on immigration, along with his proven theory on self-deportation was the primary reason why Romney became the republican nominee in the first place.

As long as beer is still $20 a case and food, sports, and cable are plentiful, the workers will continue to be oblivious to the eventual implosion of the USA just like it happened in Rome....I give it 25 more years at best only because the USA can print money.....Live Well while you can...!

Yes, working class black and Hispanic people.
"As of 2010, white families, on average, earned about $2 for every $1 that black and Hispanic families earned, a ratio that has remained roughly constant for the last 30 years.
By the most recent data, the average white family had about $632,000 in wealth, versus $98,000 for black families and $110,000 for Hispanic families." The recession hit black and Hispanic families harder than whites.
So, there obviously is an advantage to being born white in this country.
