Now longevity is racist.  🤦‍♂️

From the article:

LaVeist then suggested that if all other factors are hypothetically the same, White people in America will benefit more from Social Security because they tend to live longer than Black people.

"The program was developed, but if you look at the differences in life expectancy, if you say you have a Black worker, White worker, they begin working at the same day, at the same job, for the same company, they make the same salary, which might not always be the case, but in this example, they make the same salary. They paid the exact same amount of money into the Social Security system, and they both retire the same day," he said. 

"Because the White person on average is going to live longer than the Black person, there’s going to be a difference in how much they’re going to get out of that system that they paid into," LaVeist continued.

Everything is racist nowadays. Funny, the only time I experience racism is on the internet. Sure, you have exceptions to every rule, but in real life, I get along fine with all races.
