American eugenicists and white racialists also claim that the white race should have the upper hand in America. Their concern and anxiety over the dramatic racial demographic change in American seems to be justified. However, there seems to be a contradiction in their analyses regarding the waning of the Euro-American world. While they bewail the passing of the white race, they fail to critically examine the economic foundations of Americanism, i.e. an ideology that is fully propitious for low wage non-European immigrant workers. What role models will the withering white race of Euro-Americans endorse if American values have gravitated for centuries around the myth of economic progress regardless of whether white racialists or dark multiculturalists are in power? Why should one worry about the passing of the great white race if that race has only been involved in endless economic transactions?
