First, racism exists everywhere. There is just as much racism and hatred in Europe as there is here in the States. It’s more blatent here,though, because it is black and white. Having said that, the general idea of Alain’s statement is correct. Everything here in America is designed to benefit the rich, no mattter what their race or ethnic backround is. Our government was designed by rich (white)men to benefit the rich. There is no major effort to even out the balance of money here because that would,in turn, cause the rich to lose their power. The situation in America is this: as long as we our fighting amoungst ourselves over issues such as race, we will not unite and bring about the changes that would shift the balance of money and power. So it is true;it is in the best interest of the wealthy and the government to keep people seperated.
