Bill Gates has white guilt. Look at his racist scholarship program that helps any deserving poor student EXCEPT poor white students. His scholarship is clearly racist but he is not branded racist because being anti-white=tolerance in the eyes of the liberal media.

Who’s Eligible?

Students are eligible to be considered for a GMS scholarship if they meet all of the following criteria:

- Are African American, American Indian/Alaska Native*, Asian & Pacific Islander American** or Hispanic American

God, you're desperate. Who cares if a private citizen wants to build a scholarship for particular races? Are you going to tell me the Negro Scholarship Fund is racist because it only gives out scholarship money to students of African descent?

Yes, the Negro Scholarship Fund is racist.

There is considered to be a difference between engaging in commerce (i.e. purchasing a meal at a diner) and being qualified for a charitable service.

Otherwise, we'd force charities to open themselves and let rich people eat even though they can afford their own food.

Ponzi schemes and embezzlement? I am not sure that counts within the frame of Bill Gates, especially given you are probably using his product which is Windows.

But anyway back on topic to Immigration, I think it is a disgrace that the US has not grown a pair of balls and enforced controls of the border more strictly. Hopefully they harden up and actually protect their country.

Sorta related questions to ponder

1.) Do you think that the next POTUS will help or hurt immigration related reform?

2.) Who is better off to fix the problem of immigration and related problems Democrats, Republicans?

3.) Who do you think would be get down right now kinda guy*.

This is like complaining that the Humane Society is discriminatory for only helping animals, or the Cancer Society of America is discriminatory for only working to treat cancer.


Bill Gates is a human so why not treat all humans equally? He wants to help deserving poor so long as they're not white. There are poor white countries by the way, Georgia and Armenia are in Europe but their income levels are well below France and Germany.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_c ... per_capita

Georgia #119, Armenia #118, Ukraine #107

Taiwan #16, Malaysia #59, Panama #61, Mexico #66

Bill Gates is ignorant in thinking all whites are wealthy versus other races. Even on national scales, this is not always true.

Based on your argument about white people's poor fertility rates, I thought you wanted to import immigrants to increase fertility rates and populations. This is a common pro-immigrant stance. I thought you were concerned about Germany's demographics (falling population and increasing age rates).

Also: I don't know why an older population is bad. 50 is the new 40. People are living longer so of course the average age should be expected to go up.

Older population=more people needed to support the elderly.

Unless, you want to abolish retirement.


Retirement has always been legal. We can cut and/or delay pensions. The elderly should take care of themselves without depending on the govt. A 70 year old today is not the same as a 70 year old in 1940. Also, charities can help.

Nobody in today's generation should have 'white guilt'. Literally nobody alive today is a victim of slavery or a perpetrator, and anyone who is a descendant of a slave owner shouldn't feel any guilt.

A lot of college liberals who don't know much about anything seem to think it is alright to discriminate against their own race for stuff that whites did about two hundred years ago.

Blacks should not be entitled to more than whites, and whites should not be entitled to more than blacks. If we truly lived in a time of equality, everyone would be treated the same. But we dont.


Plus, many immigrants came after 1865 so even their great-great grandparents were not slave owners. My family in the 19th century lived in a mostly white area in the northeast and probably had few encounters with blacks so even if they were racist against blacks, they likely had no chance to mistreat them.

It is funny, I thought MLK dreamed of equality but liberals think we need to be racist. Racist against whites is still being racist and not justified. It only divides society.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

Anyone who breaks US border law in entering the US should be tracked down, arrested, and deported.

I think America should invest in more border security and law enforcement if its finding itself with a border enforcement problem. People should not be allowed to get away with breaking American laws...

Personally, I find the situation extremely frustrating. I would not want my tax dollars to be spent on diapers and housing for the undocumented. The entire protocol of processing them and requiring the undocumented to appear at "immigration court" is outrageous. They are obviously guilty of unlawfully trespassing into another country and a court hearing is absolutely unnecessary. They need to be deported immediately without processing of any kind because they are too much of a drain on resources.

Stories like this greatly upset me because my parents lawfully immigrated to the United States from the Philippines and gave birth to me here. My parents earned their citizenship by working and waiting in line like other hard working families. To see these undocumented people who come and then protest for citizenship because they think they are entitled to it.

There should be absolutely no special laws to give any undocumented people any benefits of any kind because that would be a smack to the face to the people who waited years to earn their citizenship.
