Much also has to do with putting the straight white male at the end of the line; the poor economy only worsens it.

Take a good look next time you're in a pharmacy, bank, public school, hospital, doctor's office. Very few are men, and even fewer are straight white men.

Look at the commercials on tv. To the extent there are white males there, they are portrayed as sloppy dressers and simple minded. When was the last time you saw a white male in the anchor chair for local/national news - weather...the list goes on.

Part of our ‘fundamental transformation’.

Well you could list Shep Smith and Anderson Cooper...oh, wait, you did say “straight white male” earlier didn’t you?

I think you may be correct; I’ve noticed the same thing. Straight white males are near seen as threatening to the establishments that used to hire them.

Those who have smarts and ambition would do well to look outside the US for jobs..........there’s nothing for them here.
