The easiest route to prosperity is to have key contacts within the Democratic Party central planning leadership.

Prosperity comes from education (through high school), individual reading and other skills, guts/balls, hard work, long hours, treating others well and a sprinkling of luck (which some people make on their own).

Brewha, opportunity is real, you make your own luck through hard work, skin color isn't in the equation. If you are a minority and have the same qualifications you get the job, not the white guy. Let's talk welfare reform, it keeps people in bondage no matter what their skin color. I am not talking about doing away with it, on the contrary, probably spending more. Good hospitals, good schools, good trade schools, improving neighborhoods. A definition of insanity is to keep doing something that doesn't work. I would love to take the money spent on welfare and Elon Musk reimagine how to best use it to get the most value out of a dollar. Truely I think the system holds people back.

Clearly a different one that you do.

If you want to talk racism, supremacy, systemic racism, race prejudice then we can talk. Those are all real and there are others.

But poverty doesn't know color. Go to Appalachia, lots of white people live in poverty there. Go to any major urban area, homelessness knows no color. Go look at drug addicts, they come in all colors.

If you want to talk about the second paragraph then skin color absolutely does.

I think you underestimate luck, opportunity, and being the right race.

I recognize you as lacking this attribute.

Cows are brown. It must be a cow.

Do try to keep up. I don't want to be considered a bully as a result of your inadequacies.
