Because the US uses race as a trigger to keep the poor fighting amongst themselves.

That's why.

Or, more parsimoniously (no pun intended), because poverty isn't as strong of a unifying factor as you think.

Are Irish people of a different race than British and German people? You may think they aren't, but it used to be so. Absurd, eh? Except that it was the case, because of a deliberate strategy to make poor people fight among themselves.

Latinos are just the foreign "du jour".Tomorrow it's going to be someone else. And it is deliberate.
