Second, people of any race who work full time, are married, and have high school diplomas tend not to be poor, meaning that poverty is a function of one’s choice not to do these things.
and because black married couples have a lower poverty rate than white single mothers, “life decisions” are what creates poverty.
the disproportionately black population in America’s prisons say nothing about racism, because black people simply commit more crimes, and if you don’t commit a crime, you’re not going to be arrested for it because the police are not going around arresting black people for the fun of it.
I always find it funny that people who argue that Asians are doing great are never Asians themselves
Why is that ?
Asians wealthier than whites ?
Not really
When you look at the facts
Median family income in 2014:
- $61,000 Asian American
- $52,500 white
- $38,000 Latino
- $35,300 black
- $33,240 Native American
Asian come on top in
median family income but when you change it to
personal income
You get:
- $24,000 whites
- $23,000
- $22,000
- $21,000
- $20,000 Asian American
- $19,000
- $18,000
- $17,000
- $16,000 blacks
- $15,000 Native Americans
- $14,000 Latinos
Asian Americans come out on top of whites in
median family income only because Asian families have by and large more people working. So this was picked because it supports white ppls stereotype about Asians as successful, which in turn makes it seem like American society is not racist.
And let's break it down even more by nationality:
- $26,000 Japanese, Asian Indians
- $25,000
- $24,000 whites
- $23,000 Filipinos
- $22,000
- $21,000
- $20,000 Asian American, Chinese
- $19,000 Pacific Islanders
- $18,000
- $17,000
- $16,000 blacks, Koreans, Vietnamese, Cambodians, Laotians
- $15,000 Native Americans
- $14,000 Latinos
Asian American covers too broader range.
Most who fled Indo-China after the Vietnam War and came to America with next to nothing are still at the bottom, making less than blacks on average. Even Korean Americans, despite their supposedly high IQs, have not clearly passed blacks, much less whites: they are the same as blacks in terms of median personal income ($16,300) and rate of home ownership
