Whiteness
There is an argument going on, around the Alt-Right. It seems they are trying to determine how to exclude people from the country.

Of course, the more extreme members of this group point to our skin color and say, 'There you go brother!' While another 'smarter' group is starting to point at our genes, for the answer to their quest.

The only problem, they may be wrong, just like the skin color based evidence.

First, Chimpanzees and Humans share 98.8% of D.N.A. That's right; Someone could change or remove 1.2% of your D.N.A. and your would go from being human to being a chimp.

Second, "On average, in terms of DNA sequence, each human is 99.5% similar to any other human." Yeap, you read that right. We are only .5% different, genetically, from each other.

In other words, a male and a female human get together, have a 'good time,' and about nine months later a beautiful baby would be born.

As a side note, beautiful babies are Mother Nature's way of insuring the child is excepted by the parents. That's why we have so many cute puppy and kitten pictures on the internet ; - )

If they weren't cute, the parents would abandon them. This includes, humans.

Back to my point.

Needless to say, the so-called Alt-Right is playing raced-based politics, just like the the so-called Democrats, and I think they are wrong.

I think we need to point out that, no matter the person's ethnic background, the underclass or the vast group being supported by a productive society is the problem.

Yes, this means the brain-dead 'white' crack addict is just as bad (for society) as the 'black' gang banger. The 'welfare queen' whether 'black,' 'brown,' or 'white' is a drag on society, and the same goes for corporate welfare.

Of course, this will never happen because it's too hard to fix, just like our schools, military, social security programs, and economy.

Overheard

"We’ve already had the debate. You lost now get over it."

"With the U.S. government, allies, and American companies under siege from cyberattacks, their low cost and high impact – as well as the absence of any proportionate response – ensures that cyberattacks only are likely to become more frequent, particularly as internet-connected devices become increasingly integrated into our lives. The next attack won’t just stop at our elections or financial institutions, but could be on our infrastructure, satellites, smart devices, or our military."

"…and it doesn’t end up how one might expect."

"In other words, those with fixed incomes that don't keep pace with inflation will have lost a third of their income after a decade of central bank-engineered inflation."

"Am I the only observer wondering if Irma may be a fatal blow to the banking system?"
