From the article: "systemic racism in the United States has had a huge cost to the economy: $16 trillion over the past two decades."  Can someone here prove, or even explain, systemic racism in America?!

What article? These numbers sound inflated. Like my recent conversation in the locker room about space and time. It's hard for most of us to fully understand $16 trillion.

$800 billion/year

$2,191,780,821/day

$91,324,200/hour

$1,522,070/minute

$25,367/second

It's also enough to send every US citizen alive right now, no matter age or race, a check for $48,271.22.

Sorry, my copy and paste of the article went haywire.

Reagan, an explanation of systemic racism would not engage your mind since it does not fit your agenda.  Facts do not always support our beliefs - or emotional needs.

If you could explain it you would.  Like me, I'm sure there are many here that would listen to reason!

Reagan, I cannot do this now but will be glad to do so sometime.

SW1966, my friend, trust me, no one anywhere has been able to explain it.  It's one of those catch phrases that is meant to intimidate!  But -- it's just not working anymore!
