Race and gender are outsized determinants that correlate closely with income, social outcomes…

Do race and gender also "correlate closely" with criminality, bastardy, unemployment, drug abuse, alcoholism, dependency?

Why is it desirable to associate distribution of wealth, income and social status with race but not criminality and other manifestations of social disintegration? Why is it illegitimate to associate "merit" with these matters? Why is the issue of race always the hammer and never the nail?

The democRATs have not been this upset since 1863 when the Republicans freed all of their slaves!
