Alaska Darin Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Unfortunately this one won't. His willful ignorance , stupidity and racism needs to be crushed and called out and exposed for what it is. Tools like this need to be taken to task. No, they don't. Dude craves the attention his parents obviously didn't give him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I didn't get a chance to open the link... I wonder what the comparisons are through the years. Does the gap close between the 1960's and the through the 1970's, then drop off during the 1980's? Or is it steady one way? What is the whole picture here? As a society through the last 50 years, we aren't just one bag of all conservative policy or liberal policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a society through the last 50 years, we aren't just one bag of all conservative policy or liberal policy. The numbers have gotten particularly appalling since the housing market crash so pinning blame on LBJ and the Great Society as the article hints isn't accurate, but its still shocking that somehow we've produced worse outcomes than a system which was designed to produce poor outcomes. Prior to the housing market crash and great depression, the numbers resembled Apartheid type figures as well. The quick explanation is that home value comprised a disproportionate amount of the net wealth for black families relative to the average white family. When housing values plummeted and many low income families holding subprime mortgages lost their homes, the net wealth of black families plummeted. Everyone was effected by the drop in home values, but white families on average are more broadly invested and held other asset classes which bounced back after the crash, like equities.

Jauronimo Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 The Greta Society decimated the Black family. Please expound on that idea. There's probably valid arguments to be made there, but I'm not prepared to pin the housing market crash on LBJ which is the primary driver of the numbers in referenced in the article.

I'm actually wondering what the numbers are throughout the years, too.............Probably the opposite reason for you, though. I would think the adjusted for inflation number was much higher back in the 50s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
