9. Talk about your racist tripe
"There are few things more repulsive than a person (usually white) complaining about people below him in economic class (usually minorities) as being greedy."

And one of the few things that is more repulsive is stereotyping transit workers as black and people complaining about the strike as white. Aside from news anchors, how do you know that the people complaining about the TWU strike are in a higher economic class than the TWU workers? Additionally, how do you arrive at the conclusion that the majority of transit workers are minorities?
