It isn't poverty, it's CULTURE.

Children raised in poor immigrant families which valued education and insisted their children get ahead were reared by parents who cared about them and instilled a work ethic. The kids never considered growing up and being nothing. They were taken to the public library. They were shown free or nearly free art exhibits.

It does not take money to raise a educated adult. It takes a family with the culture expecting their kids to be educated adults. Lots of kids from upper middle class homes are utter losers because their parents indulged them.

It isn't poverty, it's CULTURE.

You're right... but what is it that makes one culture value education and order and another culture value excuses and chaos...
