So, a Black person born 20 years ago will have an equal education and job opportunities available to any other white person born during that same period.

Believe it or not, there are many successful middle-class and upper-middle class Blacks acquiring wealth. But some people want to paint an entire race by saying they have low IQ's and are lazy. Thats the point of racism and bigotry, painting an entire race with negative attributes while ignoring the successful individuals.

I didn't say they were incapable of working hard, it's just that when they have the choice [unlike when they were slaves] they often choose 'less strenuous activities'.....

Absolutely.




Don't you think that might have something to do with the blacks themselves?



Nobody is ignoring the occasional success, I applaud it!

I would say a 40 year old Black person is more successful than a 30 year old Black person, which is more successful than a 20 year old Black person.

A 20 year old college graduate will have his options, but a high school drop-out will not.

Many of the Black men and women who attending high school and college during the civil rights era are now successful middle-class and upper-middle class.

So it is accurate to say that a 20-year old will be less successful than a 35 year old. If you want to analyze post-1970, you have to look at the generational gap and culture.

They didn't. That's why were set free: because of the ideology that people who are given an incentive are more productive. It's in the "Wealth of Nations".

Since when are 'blacks' some monolith collective hivemind who all speak the same voice and act the same?

Racial generalizations ftl.

Look, what they want is simple- power, revenge, money for nothing, and freedom from legal and moral responsibility from anything they do.

I was referring strictly to the fact that government caters to them heavily in the form of jobs and social programs, and that has been evident in most of my life time. 40 years ago you probably had a substantial size of the population that was still against them and would not provide them jobs based on color. Today being black holds opportunities for those who want to succeed in life, and more so than a middle-class white male because they are not pampered in the selection or aid.

Since they started listening to rap.....

Good point. It seem this evil music is turning some white kids "black" as well, starting to rot away at the culture of white youth. The disease is spreading.
