Why should white males give up everything they have created?

Question

Its funny every time I go on Yahoo answers and see people complaining about it being “a white man’s world” and say they deserve more and better then what they have with out realizing white men worked hard and earned everything they got. Of course there are gonna be some angry people posting here trying to deny the truth but it is not a coincidence that the nicest and best countries to live in tend to be created and ran by white men. And lets be honest the majority of the most important inventions used today that everyone loves so much like Planes, cars, television, computers, phones, the internet, light bulbs, motion pictures, photography, assembly line, ect(I could go on for hours) was once again create by white males. What’s really annoying is when white males create a company and invention, they work hard to make it a success like Boeing, Microsoft, Dell, ect, and then non white males demand they hire them and give them high profile or executive jobs like they are owed something. Imagine white men making the same demands to a company owned by a bunch of minorities, imagine all the crying and whining they would be doing.

And before those who say that its cause of colonialism that white males are so successful, I would like to mention that Northern Africans, Arabs, and Mongolians colonized and oppressed white people before, yet we never made it an excuse for our short comings and we freed ourselves and worked hard to become a success.

And for those who say its because of slavery, I say the majority of countries have had slavery in its passed but obviously it had nothing to do with how successful it is now. Look at Brazil, Mexico, the Caribbean, the Middle East, Africa, ect. All had slavery yet none of these countries are extremely successful today.

So why do people think white men owe, have to give up, or have to share what they’ve created? And how many will tell the truth and admit white males have earned their success?

proff, The japanese do not create the best technology. They just try to improve on the existing technology and make it more efficent. Make no doubt about it white males lead the way in discoveries and inovations.

1-Your a moron
2-If America isn't nice why are there millions risking life and limb to get here? Why is American, Europe, Australia, ect always flooded with immigrants and not the reverse? Why are white countries always rated at the top for standard of living?
3-You are way off on that one, white males are the ones who put more importance on education then other people. If people in Mexico, Africa, Asian, ect are not getting educated then its nobodys fault but themselves. And women had the opportunity to get educated if they wanted, don't even try to lie and say they didn't.
4-You are really lost, how about the Mongolians that conquered Europe or the Moores from Africa that conquered Europe for hundreds of years. Go read up and your history. Nobody is forcing capitalism on Africa if they don't like it then don't particpate, stop making false oppression accusations as an excuse for Africans failures.

5-Again did you not read my entire post? If America is successful because of slavery then why isn’t the Caribbean, Mexico, Brazil, Africa, Mid-East, and other places that used slaves equally successful. Because its not the reason moron! America’s success was because the industrial revolution and innovations, created by white men thank you!
6-No, I’m just tired of blacks who think people owe them something instead of working for it like others.

Answer 1

With regards to the Japanese make the best technology. Id like to add to that. Im not going to use the white man. Im saying the US went there set them up with the latest and newest technology for factories. The inventions were already there all they had to do was improve on them. Its called being a business man no ideas of your own. Peace out.........................

Answer 2

You're always going to look at history like it had anything to do with you, but it did'nt. It was a different group of white men and had nothing to do with you so how can you take pride in what they have earned? It basic psychology, you are trying to associate yourself with something you havd nothing to do with, kind of like being a Yankees fan.

It would be wiser if you asked yourself what have you done in life, what have you earned? What you want to do and accomplosh in life, instead of being concerned with things like this. Besides it's your ancestors who made most of the mixed people of the world from Russia to Africa, to the America's.

Answer 3

People who don't have a piece of the pie always feel as though it is their due to get a share. Look at how people treat celebrities also, feeling that since they have a lot of money they should then share it with those who have done nothing to earn it.

But you pass by a large portion of the population, the biggest group of people who somehow feel that they are owed what "white males" have earned, and have for centuries on end tried to maneuver themselves into positions to receive it. And this is no minority, although they will refer to themselves as one. They make up half the population of the world. Yes, I'm speaking of women.

Answer 4

Maybe because theyve made about 90% of the worlds populayion give up everything theyve ever created????

White males(not all) have not earned their respect. In fact, theyre in debt!!!

They owe at least five things to each country in the world.

Look into going to College.

Answer 5

PPL who think that their PPl invented everything in the world, well guess what? every nationality is iportant in the workd

Answer 6

I didn't even to bother to read. You lost me at "everything the white man created." which amounts to nothing without all the other races. Every thanks giving you should be reminded that if the natives hadn't rescue those pitiful setteler there probably wouldn't even be a US.

BTW, one reason (among others) why other countries that had slaves are not as succesful as the US is because the US had slavery the longest. They held on to slaves long after it was abolished in the rest of the world.

Answer 7

1. You're a fool idiot.
2. Our country is not all that nice and pleasant for all people. You shooting your mouth off about white supremacy due to your utter historical ignorance is only one example of this.
3. Things were invented by whites because they were the only demographic allowed to be _educated_ until about 100 years ago, when women suddenly became smart enough to go to school.
4. I don't think anyone in the history of the _earth_ has ever colonized and oppressed white people. Both whites and Arabs have and still are, however, oppressing blacks around the world with their religion, greed, and capitalism.
5. If America hadn't had slaves to do all the _manual labor_ needed to build up the land and to farm the crops, we wouldn't be half as "far along" as we are now.
6. You seem to assume that "success" is wealth. Even Jesus Christ himself would disagree with you on this one.

7. Women in Europe fact never had the opportunity to get educated unless they were wealthy and their families hired them private tutors or they became nuns. Women were *not allowed into college* until *150 years ago*. I will quote you a flocking article from UCLA here:

"There were strong male and female voices of dissent against the intellectual subjugation of women. For example, the famous author Daniel Defoe ("Robinson Crusoe," "Moll Flanders") who, in 1692, wrote: 'one of the most barbarous customs in the world, considering us as a civilised and a Christian country, is that we deny the advantages of learning to women. ... Their youth is spent to teach them to stitch and sew, or make baubles. They are taught to read, indeed, and perhaps to write their names, or so; and that is the height of a woman's education. ... What is a man (a gentleman, I mean) good for, that is taught no more?'

In nineteenth century England and America, the great disparity between the education of girls and boys began to diminish. John Stuart Mill, a very influential philosopher, was a strong advocate of equality of the sexes. In 1869 he published his famous essay on the Subjection of Women and asserted that 'the principle which regulates the existing social relations between the two sexes - the legal subordination of one sex to the other - is wrong in itself, and now one of the chief hindrances to human improvement.'

In the middle of the nineteenth century in the United States, coeducational colleges and universities were opened. The first of these was Oberlin College in 1837; then others followed - in 1852 Antioch College, in 1860 the Normal School at the University of Wisconsin, in 1866 the University of Wisconsin, in 1869 Boston University, in 1870 the University of Michigan, in 1874 Cornell University (Sage College), in 1890 the University of Chicago. The number of women in coeducational colleges and universities increased from 3,044 in 1875 to 19,959 in 1900. Many of these were studying in state universities" (http://www.physics.ucla.edu/~cwp/hist/WL.html ).

8. "Conquering" does not = "systematically oppressing."
9. Natives of the Caribbean, Brazil, and Africa *were also oppressed themselves* by white colonizers. *They were slaves too.* Belgium and France "divided up" Africa as though it and all its natural resources simply belonged to them: http://web.jjay.cuny.edu/~jobrien/reference/ob45.html
10. I forgot to mention natural resources, most of which - rubber, diamonds, oil - we've plundered from other nations.
11. You still have not countered or even remotely addressed the fact that you are equating wealth with happiness. Plenty of black and indigenous civilizations got along well without white people taking them over and would have had a great time if we would have left them alone and not sent them off to live on desert reservations or forced them to work on our plantations for no pay.

Answer 8

Don't forgot that white males also create Ku Klux Klan(KKK).

Answer 9

The Japanese make the best technology, Look at the
cars , computers, video games. Historically speaking
white males took credit for others inventions due to
the fact in America, minorities couldn't obtain patents
for their inventions, so they had to be marketed by
white america in order to sell the technology.
No Bullshit, This is the Real McCoy

Answer 10

What did they create? I didn't know forcing slaves to do things for you is creating something!
