I’m not talking about home ownership increasing, I’m talking about the amount of kids decreasing.
Like, say there’s a pizza, if it’s just you, that’s more pizza than you should eat. If you have to share it with 9 people, there’s not enough for anyone.
Because the price of homes drastically increased, and number of kids keeps declining, that means there’s more “pizza” and less people to share it with.
Even without homeownership, less kids still leads to a larger inheritance per child.
Maybe so, but that still mostly only applies to white people. A larger inheritance per child doesn’t matter if the inheritance is a paltry sum. Or no inheritance at all.
Have you ever heard of West Virginia, or Kentucky?
That’s not even getting into poor white people living in cities.
Shit, look at the republican voter base, it’s mainly poor white people. Just because some have money, doesn’t mean it “trickles down” to other people for having the same amounts of melanin in their skin…
If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.
Keep in mind, he was talking about what republicans were/are doing, not saying it as something we should do.
It’s decades later, and you’re still carrying that water pail for republicans and dividing Americans by race instead of wealth.
Common white people are able to inherit it.
Generational wealth for people of color is still something many of them are not lucky enough to have.
I think you misunderstood.

Do…
Do you think no poor white people exist?

Are you really unaware of the generational wealth gap?

You’re making it this: Black vs white
I’m saying it’s: rich vs poor
Maybe you need to brush up on your LBJ history:

And I bet you wonder why it’s not working…
