Just a good antidote when people start whining about “Republicans” and “free markets” being the source of today’s troubles. And Sweet Jesus, Pelosi and Frank are such heroically inept jackasses. Update by Howie: You’ll see Maxine Waters a bit bef…

There is no equal treatment under the law but there is great influence here that steered tax dollars into some pockets for no other reason than a race based special influence.

Exactly.

On a similar note, there is very real discrimination going on with the awarding of governement contracts. The discrimination is against white men.

Anyone who is familiar with how government contracts are awarded knows that companies owned by women or non-caucasian males are routinely given preferrential treatment over companies owned by caucasian males.

Yes, there is racism.
Yes, there is sexism.

But the victims are no longer blacks, latinos, and women. The victims are caucasian men.

Oh, you can work a government contract if you are a caucasian man, but more often than not you are forced to do it as a subcontractor for another company that is owned by a racially-approved and/or gender-approved “minority”. The primary contractor makes money off the subcontractor for no other reason than providing access to the government contract…access that the subcontractor would not be given directly.

Minus any physical abuse, it is the modern day equivalent of a plantation, with the roles of the plantation owners and the plantation workers reversed.

Catering to special interests is a contributing factor. How divisive or disturbing would a Caucasian Congressional Caucus be? Any less divisive than the Congressional Black Caucus is today? The Race based Caucus notion should be dismissed immediately for what it is.

Members of Congress that use their office for the exertion of undue influence or abuse the power of their office should have been subject to ethics charges but Caucus Membership may have prevented that in this case.

There is no equal treatment under the law but there is great influence here that steered tax dollars into some pockets for no other reason than a race based special influence. As far as logic dictates, Banks have the same legal recourse as I do. Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and FDIC to cover the account holders. This is a travesty pure and simple. It is about Criminal activity, not race. Until the New Racism is confronted and corrected we can look forward to more of these shenanigans and more waste, fraud and abuse.
