Do you really think you're fooling anyone?
Guy, I grew up in a town where the only doctor in town had two doors - above one was "white" and above the other was "colored". Oh, they were completely painted over in green paint, and I'm sure that that's what that doctor would have said, that "Hey, I ain't racist - I painted over those signs!"
But green paint doesn't hide inch-deep chisels in marble too well. And this was in 1984, twenty years after the Civil Rights Act. And the people of that small town, Shaw MS, obeyed what those signs said, all the whites to one side, all the nonwhites to the other.
You want to believe in the power of the market...but I've seen firsthand (not only in Mississippi but overseas as well) that the market doesn't always work that way. You can tell yourself all day that everything will magically work out in the end...but I've seen otherwise - I've LIVED otherwise...because I and my entire family was among the racists. My career in the Navy helped me to unlearn my racism...but the rest of my family never did. And now they're all buried with the rest of my family line in a small cemetery by a Southern Baptist church in Sunflower County MS, all in an unbroken line all the way back to the 1870's.
In other words, yeah, I've got deep roots in the area. I know whereof I speak. And having lived it, I know racism when I see and hear it, and I know that the "magic of the marketplace" is all smoke and mirrors, nothing more than entertainment for the rich, the prejudiced, and the ignorant.
