In today's day and age, it's blatantly obvious that the average Middle Age White Man in America is the minority. Middle Age White Men in America are paying for everything. Paying for past mistakes, paying for present reparations, paying for future generations.
Affirmative Action: My company hired a under-qualified black man over a much-qualified white man in order meet our "minority quota". I'm paying for this. Me, a middle-age white man. I'm paying for this by picking up the slack left by an under-qualified person who got his job by simply being black. I'm all for fairness.... so if this black man wanted a job at my company, why didn't he earn it? Let's take a step back.
In order to "earn" this position at my company, this black man would've needed a college degree (which he does not have). So, he should've went to college right? Reason he didn't go to college? He couldn't afford it. Let's think for a minute and take a look at this average black man in America:
PAST: He was born and raised in average "inner city" America (which we all know means black ghetto). Single mother, no father present (which we will get to in a later blog post), no positive male role model, mother either worked 2 jobs to support her multiple offspring (another problem in the US that we will get to in a later blog), a drug addict or a "welfare" mother. Forget about the challenges this man had growing up, he still had the same opportunities as the much-qualified white man - he just chose not to take advantage of them. He had public schools and the opportunity to get basic education. Upon graduation of public school, he had many more opportunities than most. He had more minority government scholarships to take advantage of, he had the United Negro College Fund, he had TOPS, he had community college with many financial aid programs strictly for minorities. He chose NOT to take advantage of any of them. So couldn't afford it? I'm not buying that excuse.
The much-qualified white man: Graduated from public school - with the same curriculum and basic education offered to anyone and everyone who can't afford private school. Upon graduation, no scholarship offers, no government programs, no United Honkey College Fund and did not qualify for TOPS. But... he worked 2 jobs in order to pay for 4 semesters at the local community college. Upon graduating from CC, he continued to work 2 jobs to pay for his 4 year University degree. *Remember, he had less opportunities. So now he graduates and is in the hunt for a meaningful job that he has been trained, educated and qualified for. But because my company did not have enough "minorities" employed, he was not hired.
PRESENT: So now my company hired an unqualified black man to meet quota. But now production is low, so now what? Again I'm paying for it. How? Because now my company decides to implement a "work/education" program in order to get this man qualified to do his job. Meaning, my company will now help him pay for college, while he works part time. Again I have to pick up the slack PLUS, pay raises/increases and bonuses are cut-off because this money for college help has to come from somewhere. Oh, and my vacation is now cancelled because we have to make up for low production - so it's a "all hands on deck" work environment until further notice. So how am I paying for it? Me? An average Middle Age White Man in America?
- Due to Affirmative Action, the most qualified candidate was not hired
- Production is much lower than anticipated.
- I have to work longer hours in order to raise production. Being away from my family more.
- No annual cost-of-living pay increase due to low production & paying for unqualified mans college.
- No bonus for meeting or exceeding production quota.
- No vacation (even though it's well earned)
FUTURE: Now because of low production, more costs, over worked and underpaid employees who are producing less, our prices to the public are now higher to make up for the loss. So I (Middle Age White Man in America) now have to pay higher prices for the goods/services my company provides. Yes, the mark-up is now higher and the product is now more expensive.
So let's review:
PAST: Because of the perceived notion that the white man is to blame, we have publicly funded, government programs that provides free public education and free college.
PRESENT: Because of the perceived notion that the white man is to blame, companies are forced to hire unqualified minorities.
FUTURE: Increased costs for goods and services are passed on to me.
Wake up Middle Age White Men!
I'M OUT!!

Hello,
I am the average Middle Age White Man.
I grew up in a normal middle class family in a normal middle class safe neighborhood in South Louisiana - married with kids. Still live in South La with my family. This blog is for the average middle-age white man.
I try very hard to live my life as an intelligent, moral, honest, practical and god-fearing man. Common sense and integrity are essential to me.
These are my thoughts as I've lived through many things.
Enjoy!
