If white people are so privileged, why do they need the government to repay their student loan debt?

We all know that all white people just have an endless supply of cash laying around due to their white privilege. Shouldn't they be required to pay the student loan debt themselves without relying on Uncle Sanders?

    You show your ignorance of the term "white privilege" with this "question".  Ever been stopped for driving while white?  Ever been followed through a store for no other reason than you are white.  Ever gotten the cops called on you for being a white guy walking down the street?  Ever gotten pulled over for some non-offense and wound up in the back seat of the cruiser while the cop searched your car with no cause... other than you are white?

    Not likely.  Those are examples of white privilege... whether you can pay your college loan or not has nothing to do with it.  Stop dropping terms like this like you know what they are... 'cause you haven't a clue.

    People that think white privilege is real are delusional. We’re all the same, and no color is superior to the other.

    Privilege has nothing to do with race, it has to do with wealth
