Have Black people ever said "thank you" for all the nice things White people gave to them?

Paying taxes is not enough to keep a country stabilized. That's pretty much the bare minimum contribution. If we're measuring in actual contribution towards society and towards the future of the country, aside from taxes and general wageslaving to keep everything moving, the majority of us aren't making discoveries or adding anything except for another unit that takes up space.

You're also dismissing Asian societies that managed to create stable first world civilizations that are not only mostly racially homogeneous (Japan is 98%), but non-white. Notice their birth rates are abysmal too.

Taxes are absolutely crucial in every emergency scenario. Using Brazil as an example, the President admitted their government is all out of money, which is devastating news for a country that was already dirt poor before Covid hit them, and now the people who need the most help are shit out of luck.

So I would say my contributions matter a lot. Going into outer space or building robots is cool, but as long as these Scientists live in my country, they're still benefitting from a society that can bail them out.

I don't live in Asian societies. Good for them though, and my advice would be the same. If Asians enjoy 1st world status, then don't replace them with any other group who can't do it.
