        It's easier to blame foreigners and people of color for "stealing jobs" than it is to blame the CEOs who export jobs.

        If you are white and your life seems to be a dead end, it would be a lot worse if you were black. So there's that.

        Big biz would rather keep profits off shore or buy back co. stock. Give some more $ to workers? Never!

        I'm not white. I'm melato. Half breed. A mutt. 1st time in my life I've been confused with a Caucasian person.

        So you are white partly. Or how do you define mulatto?

        Mulatto is typically part Caucasian and part African. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
