I take it that this is a sign of the "racial wealth gap"?

The news media are trying to rationalize violent riots. CBS News published a piece headlined, “Protests underscore worsening racial wealth gaps: ‘Justifiable anger.’” Authors Aimee Picchi and Irina Ivanova exploited the murder of George Floyd to suggest that the “nationwide protests” have also drawn “attention to the stark socioeconomic differences between black and white Americans.”

The Trump Economy gave African Americans the lowest Unemployment Rate is History. People who work earn Money.
Wealth gaps are caused by work ethic gaps, and by education gaps.
The education gaps are caused by still more work ethic gaps, which are learned early.
The mindless socialist media is driving these arsonists and rioters. And, they’re loving every minute of it, as decent folks lose their hard-earned businesses and livelihoods.
Gives new meaning to the term Ivory Tower Criminals.
When blacks get degrees in STEM and business instead of hyphenate-studies perhaps they can bridge that gap. If college isn't right for a person, then a learning a trade is good. Lastly, very few are going to get rich by working for someone else. There are three options: 1.) Own and operate a business. 2.) Investing. 3.) Real Estate. All of these require capital, so you have to get a decent job to begin with and save. By the way, all of the above applies to everyone regardless of color. I should also note, no one gets wealthy from socialism. (Except the few tyrants at the top)

Will Smith was shocked to learn of a French proposal to tax those earning over $1million at 75%.

Didn’t seem like he’d be up for such wealth redistribution.
Unlike the 0bama years, which were filled with peaches and cream, rainbows and unicorns, and everyone had lots of money.
It's gotta be true, right? Cuz CBS never said a word about racial income inequality in all that time!
No matter what they do, they cannot add 20 IQ points to their average intelligence.
The solution was there: bring back jobs, as Trump did. But the left doesn’t want them to have jobs! They want them to be down and miserable, so they vote democrat and hate Whitey.
The CV19 crisis and this one were engineered precisely for that reason: to destroy the booming economy that Trump had given us and to reduce us to dependence on government. It accomplished its goal. 3 months wasted. Downtowns devastated. Cops threatened.

Hugo Chávez’s family got billions
Reparations are coming...thats what this is about...and the way white people are being beaten down with this “racism guilt”, they’ll get it. Look at the way these mayors and governors are literally kneeling down to all this. If the democrats get another “2008” election result where they control House, Senate, WH...itll be a done deal. Theyve been talking this for 40 years...they know they are so close to finally getting it done...
One of the looters was driving a $300 thousand Rolls SUV.
Would Spike Lee's former home in Manhattan (asking price 32 million) be also a sign of concern for CBS regarding racial wealth inequality?
CBS = Continuous Bull $hit
I believe they looted it from a dealership.
You nailed it. I have a very young coworker that in a personal conversation he initiated (he likes to personally bond rather than follow instructions - won’t lose his job, but will never get promoted) whined about his father being deemed essential and should have not had to go to work. Yikes. I guess he wants to depend on the government to eat.
Kid has a 40 hour a week hourly job with no overtime. Could easily pick up part-time hours doing anything(I did until my last promotion). Games at night to the point he’s overslept during his lunchtime nap.
After the last two “bonding” conversations, I realized this kid will always be poor. The sad part is that he will never figure out why.
It is time to allow black people to open IRAs, participate in 401(k)s, and purchase homes.
Gleeful in fact
