[quote=Anonymous]If you want to eliminate the racial wealth gap you have to do three things: 1. Graduate from at least high school. 2. Stay out of the criminal justice system. 3. Stop having children out of wedlock. 72% of of black children are born out of wedlock. That has also soared for white children comprising some 30% of births. If DC becomes a state it will lead the nation in three statistics: Out of wedlock births, high school dropouts, and income gap. There's a connection. Spend all the cash you want it won't do a thing until those three criteria are met. That's true for whites and blacks. What about successful black families? What did they do? Did they just get lucky? Say it again: 1. Education 2. No incarceration. 3. No gestation without a two parent family. [/quote]
