John, that is not exactly a scientific approach. Just kidding John-lol.

I have spent fifty years thinking about this subject above all else. Knowledge makes the mind stronger which allows it to accomplish more and creates interest and provides answers.

Knowledge Directed Perception. To know is to see and to see is the greatest power a person has for survival and allows options and answers.

Those poor folks stuck in ghettos simply do not know how to get out. And they are by and large not lazy they are lost.

Look at the Jews and Japanese. Very few lazy people, because their culture teaches them to think. They all have shit to do. The Jews and Japanese destroy the normal curve. Best to stay out of those classes-lol

Two people are in a Chinese prison with a library. One can read Chinese and one cannot.

Who will be the most bored and appear the most lazy?

I worked out of the laborers union for 6 years. I was one of the few never bored. I read when I had down time and was happy as a clam. When they had no work they mostly sat and stared out the window, sharpened knives, or fiddled.

In the ghettos they too often have an unrealistic understanding of the world and a lot of trouble coordinating information. So they too often give up and take drugs, defeated by life.

I was hoping Hillary would lead to empowering the poor, I was hearing the trumpets of victory

;but now, the enemy is at the gates.

That is simply not true. Education cures laziness. You clearly haven't spent much time hanging around college and university faculties. There are some terribly, terribly hard workers. Just put us all to shame. Driven. But there are the ones who fulfill the stereotype about tenure.
