USAA has committed $50 million to nonprofit organizations over the next three years to help improve racial equality and positively address the employment, educational and economic disparities that exist within communities of color and low-income military communities. The goal of our targeted contributions is to help close gaps across education and job training, employment and income disparity.

Yup. Once the declare they are committed, done deal. It would be systemic racism to back out. So by doing this, is it an admission that the participated in the “systemic racism” for a long time? LOL! No escape for the dumbassery.

USAA has committed $50 million in policy holders premiums to nonprofit organizations over the next three years to help improve racial equality...

Isn’t that nice of them to make that decision for their policy holders?

It sounds good on its face, but the question must be asked: are the Obama generals leaning on the USAA?

Most of my friends kids were reading 3rd grade level before kindergarten. Guess it’s that privilege thing kicking in because only white kids have access to books at the dollar store or internet access

“USAA has committed $50 million to nonprofit organizations over the next three years to help improve racial equality and positively address the employment, educational and economic disparities”

Billions of dollars of mostly taxpayer money have been spent since the 1960s to “address” these disparities. If what USAA says is true, then none of that money has made a dime’s worth of difference over a 60-year timespan, two generations of people. These are exactly the same disparities that people were talking about back then.

It isn’t about the money. It isn’t about the disparities. It isn’t even about solving any real problems.

I’m so sick and tired of the rich and powerful, lecturing the rest of us about things that only the rich and powerful have the ability to fix.

The only people that have the power to fix the disparities between whites and minorities is the individual people in the minority communities.

If they really meant it, they’d rename the company US African American. Wouldn’t even have to change the letterhead (USAA).

My guess is that Obama generals are serving on USAA’s board of directors.

It’s on their site, and apparently it’s a done deal.

Wow, all good to know. I suspected it wasn’t the same company it used to be. Liberalism ruins everything.

At the recommendation of a long-time member, I looked into USAA two years ago. It sounds like they were the greatest way back when. When I looked into them, they weren’t competitive with what I already had. I also wasn’t about to commit to banking exclusively online, by mail, or through ATMs.

Never give up.

Send them a different email once a month.

Write snail mail to each member to the Board of Directors.

Then you can look at yourself in the mirror each morning with pride.

You do not want to finance the mob that burns down your house.

You do not want to be “nice” about that.

If there is one thing I have learned in this life, it is that nothing is ever a done deal.

Nothing.

It is up to you to make their life miserable with emails, snail mails and whatever other tactics are in the your comfort zone.

Never accept the triumph of evil.

Never.

$50M? The insanity has begun there. I’ve been there 35 years. I need to watch them to see how much of my money goes to burning cities.
