Sure they might not follow you around at the store checking if you're stealing, but they are also going to charge you full retail because they know you have money.

You have to buy a $250k home, when everyone else gets to spend half that it less.

How much do you have to earn to be considered a successful white guy, and how does that compare to a minority's?

People get all up in arms about pay inequality and priviledge , but they never once talk about expense inequality and how that's paid for. They never talk about the higher expectations they have for a Caucasian over the others.

White Burden matters

Having to make tough decisions -- like sending one's kids to Cotillion vs. getting botox touch ups.

Heavy stuff

Too often, simply ignored by society

Me and my family sleep in a tent so I don't know what you are talking about. Neither me nor my wife work. We spend all of our time with our kid because we love ou r child more than others. We dont need material possessions to be happy. That makes us better than everyone else.

having to pay taxes on my food at the grocery store. I didn't think it was white burden, but just something everyone should have to do. Whatever!

White people will have to recreate civilization after the crash. That's a pretty big burden.

The OT sure does love it some racial discussions. It's kind of cute in a way.

Who knows, perhaps over time the answers to all the world's issues, not just race, will be hashed out on the OT, the world will be a bright shining place, and Chicken will will a Nobel Prize.

I'm fully expected to leave an appropriate tip whenever I eat at a restaurant. And I do. Especially if the drinks are good.
