We have more than our share of lazy white people here in the United States. If you look at the rolls of whose sucking off the government teat, my folks lead the way.

You folks never bother to distinguish between liberals and progressives; much in the same way we lump the MAGA crowd in with the small government, free enterprise loving conservatives. Where Progressives and liberals walk the same path is in the idea that the US is a diverse, multi-cultural republic, where historically, and presently, some racial groups have unfairly treated others. Where we differ is what to do about it.
To a liberal, who believes in the primacy of the individual, having the central federal government deny worthy individuals opportunities because of their racial or religious background is not a legitimate goal. You are not going to end racial discrimination by engaging in racial discrimination.
Equal opportunity is the key. Our constitution demands it. Everybody should get a fair shot, without resort to "isms."
Quotas are not equal. They are discriminatory. You don't make up for two centuries of kicking folks in the teeth by kicking somebody else in the teeth. Just stop kicking people in the mouth.
