>> why is the income disparity between whites and blacks in this country so large? No one ever said it was easy to move from one social class to another and it often takes multiple generations. I've never been wealthy but I still hope my children will be. Yet, it is apparent that due to stupid federal policy it is an even steeper climb for them. >> Why did blacks make up only 7% of Congressional reps in the 113th Congress when they make up 13% of the population? Because the black politicians who have been elected are people like Barack Obama, Sheliah Jackson Lee, Hank Johnson, and the entire Congressional Black Caucus, the average IQ of which has to be in the 70s. Only now are highly intelligent blacks like Mia Love and Ben Carson pursuing elected office. And you fools oppose them. >> Why is black unemployment always significantly higher than white unemployment? Maybe the minimum wage has kept blacks from being able to learn to solid business skills. Maybe you answer the way you answer so you can ignore the facts and maintain the way of life you have grown to love. Maybe Love and Carson are blacks masquerading as whites. Maybe there are not more blacks in Congress because the GOP has gerrymandered the hell out of their districts. Maybe its a lot easier for whites to move from one class to the other than it is blacks. And maybe........just maybe...........you continue to be FOS.
