Donald Trump Forced His Driver To Give Up Health Benefits In Exchange For A Raise, New Lawsuit Claims

Well, let's face it: life is not as nice for uneducated white people as it used to be. Uneducated labor has greatly decreased in value the last few decades, and while it might be considered offensive, I think you can argue this is related to emancipation, globalization and automation.

Black people in America have a long history of being enslaved and oppressed. Due to this oppression, there is less opportunity for success which results in more competition for uneducated jobs. This competition in turn decreases the value of that labor.

Similarly, globalization has moved many manufacturing jobs abroad because it's cheaper, which is relatively uneducated labor. This decreases the number of uneducated jobs that are available, and drives up competition for the remaining ones.

What kind of labor is affected the most by automation? Exactly, uneducated labor. For example, the volume of mail has decreased immensely thanks to various forms of instant messaging and McDonald's is replacing cashiers with terminals. Once again, competition for the remaining uneducated jobs increases and value decreases.

Meanwhile, educated people who still have nice lives look down on them. Of course they're angry! I think the only way to fix this, is to take the real issues they're facing seriously.
