My white son is competing for jobs in a market that gives preference to women and “people of color” before anything else, even legitimate qualifications, but especially if all other factors are equal. If all other factors are equal, he’ll never get the position.

Hiring quotas must be filled to prevent fall out to the companies.

Is that the kind of white privilege that we’re talking about? Being passed over because of the color of his skin?

I am 61, been unemployed since Obamacare put the business I worked 23 years for out of business on December 31, 2016. I cannot even get an interview. I was looking at a nice retirement in 5 years. Now I look to surviving.

But God is good, He has His reasons for me to be in this predicament. I will accepts and look forward to what may come.

My handicapped wife is on medicare, and I have no insurance for the fist time in 30 years. I know I can outlast them, because all my ancestors lived into their 90s.

God is good.
