little2add Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Tu quoque Most people just don't care that much about race anymore. My kids barely notice someone's complexion. They go to school with hispanic, white, indian, oriental and black kids and nobody gives a who. There is a ways to go, of course, and yes, Black racism is alive and well, but so is class envy. the idea that somehow we are still living in a "Guess who's coming to dinner" era, let alone a Gone with the Wind era, is plainly wrong. Change takes place slowly, and we all want to see change quickly as our lives are not that long, but a lot has changed since the 1960s. To see that gay marriage is legal now in many places in the US, and that euthansia is on the books in several jurisdictions, is nothing short of flabbergasting. And so are the changes in race relationships. Class envy is a bigger problem. Financial success is not a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little2add Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Class envy is a far greater evil than racism in the upcoming election What's funny is that the winner of presidential election is or will be the politician with the biggest purse, of all the candidates Trump is spending the least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little2add Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) money, money, money talks Recent indications from deep-pocketed institutional investors as well as those who frequent prediction markets say Hillary Clintonwill win. And it's not close. More than 70 percent of respondents to a recent Citigroup poll of institutional clients viewed the former secretary of state, first lady and New York senator as the likely 45th president.

Had you provided a link or some other sort of citation, this wouldn't be plagiarism. The use of statistics researched by others or the ideas of others, even their exact words if reasonably limited, is fine so long as the source is credited. I work as a writing tutor so I deal with this matter all the time. This is plagiarism. If you add a source, though, it won't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
