There are no corpses of prejudices in America, though there are corpses of past worse states of affairs.

Very true.  Anyone who denies that oppression based on race is not alive and well is deluded, and anyone who denies that most americans are not racist is even more so.

No actually he 'worked for a living'.
...there's nought you can do about someone being priviledged. Also, why do you sympathize with them, if they have criminal records?

These government programs trap the weak in poverty, as they provide an excuse for them not to find work.

It is ridiculous nonsense to claim that someone like Romney ever 'worked' in any sense that bears any similarity to the toils of the masses.  Sure, he hung around a big fancy office and had people rushing in to kiss his bottom and shower him with money, but this was just an enjoyable game occasioned by privilege.

And there is something we can do about privilege - we can institute conficatory tax tax rates.  Heck at some points in history these privileged enemies of the rest of us have actually be eliminated in the fashion they so richly deserve.

As for your bizarre statement of bigotry against those who have criminal convictions, why wouldn't we have sympathy for such people?  After all the real criminals are Romey and his class, not the poors thrown into prison to maintain the slave-camp of capitalism.
