Poor whites are subjected to subject to additional law enforcement scrutiny, denied job opportunities, and discriminated against when trying to purchase a home.

This I completely recognize and agree with, but that wasn't the premise posted. The premise was "Irish American". I'd never heard that as a modern day form of discrimination, and that's why I was questioning it.

But you don’t have to be Irish, to be white and get shafted by capitalism.

Right again, but again, that wasn't the premise posted.
