[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ It certainly is an interesting approach to consider.  Maybe the numbers are not exact, but the basic analysis strongly suggests a problem.[/quote]

no, the numbers show nothing of the sort. the census undercounts poor black kids by almost 9%. the annual census projections are esimates with a margin of error. dcps may under or over count its own numbers. the article id 100% horse shit and shame on anyone who thinks it is has an iota of credibility. [/quote]

The undercounts are no longer that high, and they are much worse for kids under 4. see table 4 with undercounts of kids by race since 1940: https://www.census.gov/srd/papers/pdf/ssm2014-03.pdf Agree on margin of error but not as much on undercount.

Also, DCPS/charters probably have an *over*count incentive since that is how they are paid, right, per pupil?[/quote]

No, the undercount is still very significant particularly for inner city black kids ie a huge chunk of DC. the daily caller screed is ludicrous. [/quote]

A big chunk that still leaves a big chunk of non-poor blacks.  Even if the city were 100% low-income poor blacks, it wouldn't erase all of the 11% discrepancy the article calculated.

Where is your data? Why are you so adamant in insisting there's no problem against the observation of many (even aside from the scary Daily Caller)?[/quote]

Because the cheaters and fraudsters have every incentive to attack, obstruct and deflect, in the hope that the spotlight moves elsewhere.[/quote]

Psycho loser, if I was a cheater. I would not be posting at all. You have some kind of martyr complex, you think you're doing something noble and just, speaking of those pg people, and their cheating ways. You are stupid. You are messed up. You are sad. And the only reason I continue to post in this thread is to repeatedly point it out to you. Being you., I'm sure that makes you just feel more noble. But show this to your mother, and she will remember how you loved to pick wings off flies and burn ants with your magnifying glass. Show this to your therapist, and he'll increase your Seroquel.[/quote]
