I'm so sick of hearing "white privilege"! I grew up just as poor as many blacks and back then there were no welfare or food stamp programs, quotas for college or hiring preferences. I worked my butt off and didn't become a criminal. Being white had nothing to do with my modest success in life, I got there on my own efforts. I served in the military and worked in the private sector and there were plenty of minorities that succeeded as well or better than I did.
