Excellent points were made about most people not being successful at a young age and having to work your way up to where you want to be. Not everyone has the same opportunities in life. Some groups of people do have less opportunities. But why punish white people? They didn't choose to be born white or into a good family and I think if most people could choose their skin colour many of them would choose to be white because they know it will bring them a better life.

>> median income in 2011 http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0104552.html

White 55,412
Black 32.229
Hispanic 38,624

>> household net worth and unemployment http://money.cnn.com/2012/06/21/news/economy/wealth-gap-race/


White Americans have 22 times more wealth than blacks -- a gap that nearly doubled during the Great Recession.

The median household net worth for whites was $110,729 in 2010, versus $4,995 for blacks, according to recently released Census Bureau figures.
............................
And these groups also suffer from far higher unemployment rates than whites, whose unemployment rate is 7.4%, below the national average. Blacks, on the other hand, have a 13.6% unemployment rate and Hispanics, 11%.



in what way are whites 'punished'?

I just mean it's wrong to blame them for being successful and for the world's problems.

While most of what you have to say rings true to some degree, the statistical percentages you are using give a skewed outlook of the real picture.

7.4% unemployment for whites who are far greater in population would render a number far more sizable than 13.6 percent for blacks.

Using 2012 population data and your percentages, and rounding figures:
Total pop. : 300,000,000+ (approx)
White pop. : 63%
Black pop. : 13.1%

Unemployed whites: 15,000,000
Unemployed blacks: 6,000,000

There are 9 million more unemployed whites than blacks.

But back to the topic: I think you are confusing rich white men with "THE MAN". And we ALL have a beef with "THE MAN"!
