I am a white male from South Africa...and I am still not racist even after everything that has happened to me...just thoruoghly dissapointed in mankind. I moved to the USA to play sport about 1989 ...lived there for 17 years then came back to my beautiful counry to find out, that life there sucks for a white male over the age of 20...you are completely marginalized unless you have contacts with relatives in a company...there is noway you are getting a job. I was a COO of a $2:7bil/ annum U.S. company before returning to SA...6 years later I have now reluctantly moved to Germany in search of a job in the constrauction industry. I have no work visum and I have little money left...had to sell my car to come here in search of a better life!
