[quote=Anonymous]OP Much of the social criticism I have read about the income gap focuses on how much even the .1% makes over the 1% which is still a huge gap for those in the 90%. Given what we can be known of people in these brackets couldn't we assume those kids in that part of DC were never going to Hardy? So realistically the percentage of kids with affluent parents that don't need you or me to get the stag may be increasing and is most likely not decreasing as a percentage in DC. Isn't this as a consequence really what hold Hardy back, there are just not enough of those sufficiently affluent kids ie. 80-90 % versus 1%. In my mind if we don't increase the income capacity of the parents in DC we can't really change the trajectories of most schools. [/quote]
