This part of your post is a very elementary way of thinking of our social world. But the people who will get my point have already gotten it.

I don't know. I think it's "problema" so it can match, but I haven't taken Spanish since high school, and all I remember is eating and watching Destinos. I loved Raquel. Not in that way though. I mean I thought she was sexy as hell. Enough of my tangents...

And I wasn't joking when I said I'm not a Liberal.
What did Karl Marx say that is contradictory to anything I posted about capitalism and slavery, young co-ed?

You never said you weren't.
You're probably some ridiculous major like social work or african-american studies.
