Yeah, white guys are blamed for everything.
When in actuality, it is white men who have given us our greatest inventions.
We wouldn't even be on these computers if it wasn't for a white guy

Uhh, I didn't say anything about rich white guys in my original post. Someone quoted my post, and took it out of context. Go back and read the original.

Maybe they should hire him. Working for them should be some kind of punishment in its self but at least he'd be contributing to something.
