What a surprise. The SJWs at Demos, Brandeis, and Salon think that nothing has changed in the last 50 years and that we are still living in the Jim Crow era.

Intelligence, talent, attitude, work ethic and tenacity are critical to success. Failure in any one of those areas means you end up behind.

from the article: Demos and Brandeis suggest policies to boost homeownership, like better enforcement of anti-discrimination laws, lowering the cap on the mortgage interest deduction so blacks and Latinos can benefit and authorizing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to allow homeowners to modify their loans.

yes, the liberals plan to reduce the wealth gap is another minority based subprime crisis

BTW, the feds have no valid constitutional say about freedom to choose ("discrimination") except when state law forces racial segregation based on original understanding of the ratifiers intent of the 14th Amendment and confirmed by the Slaughterhouse cases. The "Incorporation Doctrine" is patently unconstitutional because it ignore the ratifiers' post Civil-War, Reconstruction intent in passing the 14th Amendment.

It's time to rebel against such federal excesses starting with states exercising their sovereign, constitutional rights.

Tell these two twits who wrote this article that the minorities only have to wait a few more decades as their numbers convert them to the majority. Then they can rise up like they did in Haiti, slaughter all the remaining whites, take over, and live in eternal poverty (and bliss?) forever. Kill the creative, money making machines, and you end up in the $hitter. Oh, by the way, after the whites are slaughtered, you can all tangle with each other to see who is king of the hill next. Good luck with that.

Until all White children are denied the White Privilege of having cishetero fathers [as opposed to turkey basters, baby daddies and random sperm donors] America can never realize true equality.

Whites will simply not be a majority of the young population in the next generation. They will be a plurality: With over 50% of the population being non-white. Using the tired old arguments from the civil rights era are not only out dated, but nonsensical. It’s like going from chess to checkers imho.

Latinos and blacks are unable to work hard, put the results of their hard work into homes, and encourage their children to do the same. Therefore, liberals are encouraging offering lower interest rates, subprime financial requirements, and virtual no-foreclosure guarantees to ‘equalize’ the financial wealth ‘gap.’

Now the reality: This will push home values well above the value that the property is worth, since more people can enter a limited market. More family assets will be taken into the financial system, bankers will make a great deal, so will realtors, and families will find that they are one sick day away from losing their ‘investment.’

But that’s okay, as most of these cut rate mortgage offers will be swooped up by investors who happen to be of the right pigment of Caucasian (IE Latino) and then they’ll point to the great success of the program (like they did before), and expand it even further, but this time also adding in wealth limits to prevent ‘investors from abusing the system.’ And then we’ll get the next subprime bubble, JUST like last time.

Liberals, the only ones who can repeat something over and over again and go ‘THIS time it will result in something different... REALLY!’

Either way, offering anything to anyone based solely on their skin pigment is discrimination. Something liberals love to practice each and every day.

It is a parenting issue, not a race issue.

“blacks and Latinos”-that says the article was written by idiots, since most Latinos are Caucasian-I’m one of those- but can be any mixture of the only three races on this planet-Caucasian, Asian and Black-any intelligent person knows that Latino/Hispanic is an ethnic group, while Black is a race-but since the author says I’m disadvantaged, where’s my free stuff?

And haven’t we already seen that affirmative action home buying movie before? I seem to remember that it didn’t end well for anyone...

“Conservatives believe that if blacks and Latinos simply work hard, get a good education and earn a good income, historical racial wealth gaps will disappear.”

Bingo.

Translation: America has done bad things in its history, but those bad things are gone now, so we should move past those horrors and look forward.

Translation of the translation: you whities should feel guilty for all generations and cough up all your wealth for the gimmedats.

"White Privilege" is old news.

Let's discuss "Asian Privilege".

There's nothing "simple" about doing that. (Well, I guess it's a lot easier if you've get some preferential treatment).
