Hundreds of billions? You must be referring to inner city Iraq.

If you can name an inner city school system that is better funded per child than the surrounding white suburbs, I'd love to hear about it. Otherwise, go sell stupid somewhere else.


I looked up the inner cities near me.

Trenton, NJ and Camden, NJ

They both spend over 20k per student while Trenton's suburb, Hamilton spends about 15k and Camden's suburb Collingswood spends about 17k and Cherry Hill spends about 15k per student.

Does PJ have any proof that all demographics of "impoverished" kids perform equally in school?

Racist?

Impoverished students underperform affluent students regardless of race. People who attribute performance to skin color are either ignorant of the truth or are trying to sell a philosophy of race supremacy. We'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you fall into the former group.

If you were presented with an identical diploma/grades from an entry level white and black candidate would you choose the white guy because white guys are better workers? Do tell.


Should congressman clyburn be banned from Congress for life because he complained that Senator Scott did not vote "black"

Should all members of Congress vote according to their race?
Did anybody listen to part or all of Sterling's interview with Anderson Cooper? Sterling didn't help his reputation at all, and only made it far worse. I have no idea why he is so obsessed with Magic Johnson and why he has specific hatred of him? From the sounds of it, if the owners proceed with trying to force him to sell, he sounded like he is going to release dirt on the other owners. This went from very ugly to even being uglier.
