| It is very difficult to pull oneself out of generational dependency and most people of any race couldn't do it. Clearly there are exceptional people who do, more with each passing decade... But, when you are taught that it's hardly worth trying, that the game is so stacked against you, you are at a disadvantage to even try. There are plenty of poor whites in America as well and they don't seem to do much better than their black counterparts. Again, so much of it is generational apathy about "the system". The good news is that the chief determinant of future poverty, unwed childbirth, is decreasingly in both racial groups. |
