This is the only thing that wasn't irrelevant.
They are choices. You enter into a working relationship with a job orr you don't. What happens at that job is your choice to either put up with or not put up with.
In the 1920's, the gap between the rich and poor was quite low. (lower than the USSR post-revolution..actually) It's a wonder what an economic mess the statists have created to push that gap.

At what point did I say anything like that?

And you don't think the fact that construction companies pay cash under the table to illegal immigrants without having to pay payroll taxes is part of the freaking problem?

That certainly happens. But many construction companies pay legal immigrants as well. Due to their cost advantage, which even recent immigrants have over the African-American populace. To be honest, I like illegal immigrants working here because they're circumventing this ridiculous minimum wage law for both their and their employers benefit. Win-Win.

And if black man knows that the employer is an "out" racist, why would he still pursue said job?

To gain employment, I imagine.
