Well, yeah, you're hitting on the the kinds of things I was thinking of when I said

between what I’ve stated and many other policies that families of color were still barred from, and many things I’m glossing over

I was focusing on one narrative that I could speak to well, because that's specifically the policies that helped my family, and I know they were not available to people of color. There are hundreds of different narratives that have caused the class divide and the race divide in this country to be so closely associated.

But overall, I agree: If we didn't spend so much money and resources trying to appease the greed of a few dozen people for whom everything would not be enough, then I think a lot of these problems would go away...

That said, I'm not sure how easy it is to talk about boosting up the working class without having a conversation about race. Enough people buy into, and fear, the welfare queen idea. You wouldn’t want to give them free money.
