Why is it that Hindus are sometimes darker/blacker than blacks, yet they cause no trouble, are the best educated, most affluent group in America,  and win every SPELLING BEE????

Yes definitely. However the black high-testosterone added into the mix makes it a deadly recipe.

Most issues in America come down to culture.  it's not a race issue.  Urban blacks and  poor rural whites actually have similar cultures.  Until that changes it's not going to get better.  

I mean,  grandma and grandpa wasted and don’t work........ Mom and Dad wasted and don’t work.......Not hard to figure out how the next generation will be.

Before the welfare state grew out of control whites and blacks had about the same numbers in terms of single parent families. Afterwards single parent families amongst whites went up but exploded in the black community.

Pretty accurate statement and it goes beyond white and black.

No surprise with those numbers.  women earn less than men because of the careers they pursue therefore when solo their kids will be in poverty.  I question the legitimacy of those numbers as far as fully accounting for child support and alimony.

Fact is 2 parent households are a significant measuring tool when looking at poverty, education, incarceration and income.   All 5 charts basically mirror each other.

Yep, women earn less for many reasons, careers they choose, simple facts like pregnancies and choosing to work less to stay at home with children.  And many women are content to do this as it does help them with their child support and alimony.

There should be another stat added to this.... parents separated but  both still involved. It takes time and money to raise kids and two parents make that easier.

No doubt.   Lots of great kids come out of single parent households for a variety of reasons but the statistics don't lie.

My kids I used to have were raised by both of us, even after divorce at a fairly young age.  Not proud of the divorce, but they are really good adults (As far as I know!).

Lets not forget, the TX Dems DECLINED his resignation.  So he will still be the top DEM in Lamar County.  Dems don't care about this type of behavior....unless it is a republican doing it.

Oh yes - I don't talk or see my daughter (27 in June) as much as my son (24 in March) but yeah, we get together a quite a few times a year.  My son really enjoys snowmobiling, so we get at least 3-4 trips a year together.  I just had to say "as far as I know" as they are living their lives on their own....
