That they will never address. It's a valuable tool. Tell a bunch of white people they're special because they're white and they will silently stand by while you rob them blind. You don't even have to give them anything. Just tell them they're special.

Lyndon B. Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."
