I'm saying that lower social classes have disadvantages over higher ones. If that is your point, then great, we agree with one another. However, I am also saying that social classes have nothing to do with race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. Perhaps I am mistaken, but that seems to be where you and I differ, and that is where the crux of my issue with your position lies.

Obviously the poor do not have the same opportunities as the rich in this country. I'm sure that we can all agree on that. Saying that minorities don't have the same opportunities is something else entirely.

I agree and that is where I think Rathji was incorrect as he was using race as the issue and not class.
