  Bloomberg Businessweek is taking a beating from critics who say the magazine's recent cover—featuring a cartoon illustration of what appears to be a black family rolling in cash from a housing rebound—is racist.

"I simply drew the family like that because those are the kind of families I know," Guzman explained in a follow-up statement provided to Yahoo! News by Bloomberg Businessweek. "I am Latino and grew up around plenty of mixed families."   

I thought it was all about diversity............so a Latino draws Latinos.........oooops.........PC police, "you can't draw people like yourself".   :lmao:

Everything is racist to those who only care about skin color.

Am I missing something here?  What's wrong with making money off flipping houses?  It's wrong for Latinos to make a profit? 

I can't come up with an objection to a family being happy they made money on the sale of a house.
