That’s why they want racially-segregated schools; they hope that the proper lifestyle will just kind of sink in if they see it every day. That way they don’t have to say it out loud, or in print.
The libs still fantasize about this being Selma in 1960. Been there, done that - what we see before us is the result. More of the same isn't going to change anything.
I have a suggestion for education: The 12th grade will be spent learning a work skill. Every student. Then they can work their way through college, if they want to go. If they decide not to attend college, they will already have a skill for earning a living. Wouldn’t that be a step in the right direction?
Didn't liberal lending standards lead to the real estate bubble and the the financial melt-down? (And Barack Hussein Obama.)
"Education"
The US spends more on education than any other nation on Earth, yet the results are truly pathetic. So let's spend even more money?
"Labor Markets"
In contrast to the other proposals, these are likely to lead to more minority jobs and minority wealth. Unfortunately, the minority jobs and minority wealth will be in China and India.
Is Forbes commie now?
‘Mo money.
“Mo money!!!
“Gimmie mo a DAT MONEY, HONKEY!!!!!!!
No. Stop funding education with federal dollars would be a step in the right direction. You can try whatever scheme you want locally and if it fails or succeeds we will all hear about it.
Good way to make the whole country one big Detroit, Camden, East St. Louis etc.
No gap, everyone is poor.
But, the ubermenchen,the totalitarian nut jobs like Bill Gates, Soros, Buffet, Rockefellers will still be there lording over anyone remaining.
Discrimination in education, housing, and employment no longer exist in this country for blacks and haven’t for decades.
I’ve been turned down for two jobs in my 52 years because they were looking for a black candidate. I doubt that any black man my age has ever heard that, except in his own mind.
1.) Marry the girl you impregnated.
2.) Raise your kids.
3.) Don't impregnate any other girls.
1. Change welfare programs to allow women to receive benefits if married or living with the child’s father.
2. Continue welfare benefits for several years for women who marry the baby daddy.
3. Require an IUD or Norplant or proof of Depo Provera injections for every female over the age of 14 in the household as a condition for welfare benefits. If you cannot support the children you have, you cannot be allowed more.
4. Shut the border and start deporting illegal immigrants, who are an undue drain on food banks, school systems and benefits like EITC
Bring back shop class, auto repair classes, home economics. The kids will get more mileage out of that than the social justice classes now taught as civics in some schools.
Even suggesting minors get implanted birth control is sick and disturbing
Here’s my recommendation; “Do nothing.” Let people find their own way.
Happens to be the same opinion as that of the Founding Fathers and expressed in all their documents such as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
11. Ignore facts.
Granted, this wouldn't actually eliminate the wealth gap, but there'd be no one bitching about it.
Get rid of government involvement in education entirely. The schools which still produce delinquents will either be run out of business or be funded by Democrat party operatives.
The author needs to read some Thomas Sowell. No examination of Americans of Asian or Indian descent? How absurd.
if the poor die, the gap will be reduced
Tell me: Do people get paid to write such tripe?
