"There are plenty of poor people with no idea of how to get out of a hole."

There are poor people everywhere who have no idea of how to get out of a whole. The difference is that in the U.S., if you are poor, there is a very real avenue to rise. Britain?

"There are plenty of black people doing very well in Britain."

Black people who began their lives in poverty? I was also referring to elected officials. I wonder how many black people, or people of color, have led Britain's military? Or diplomacy? Or been considered for Prime Minister? I suspect that this dovetails back into your point about class versus money - they may have money, but they do not come from the right class, and therefore the upper classes in Britain are predominantly while, protestant.
