We will have a young group of recently educated potential workers who will not be able to find a job in the USA. They voted for Obama, so deal with it you morons. Educated white males will be on the bottom of the totum pole in order to make diversity numbers look better like they have been for 40 years. Government contracts (the only growing business along with budget deficits) will not award contracts if you have too many white males.

The producers have already figured out that shipping manufacturing job overseas is a good thing for them. With cheap internet phone service, IT jobs, order entry, billing and invoicing, and product technical support jobs are now (and more soon) in India, Malaysia and the Phillipines. Plus they do not get sued for having too many white males, and they are able to fire bad workers regardless of gender, race (hispanic is a culture not a race, but La Raza does not care), or sexuality.

However, I can get my lawn mowed cheap by illegals. They will soon have citizenship to go along with their free emergency room health care. What a deal.

Press #1 for Spanish & 2 for English.

Hope you are enjoying your 401K in your golden years. Goldman Sachs is doing well with the $ you put in them–sucker!

National Health Care will be similar to what was in the Soylent Green movie.

Atlas Shrugged.

The only way the people of west can get a job is to either lower their salary exceptions or educate themselves so hard that they can work in a field the uneducated can not. Globalization is just going to grow and people need to understand the value of education.

Europe is breaking apart with this “welfare state” -ideology due to the growing number of people who need social security. The boat can no longer carry everyone. The truth is, life is getting harder in the west since we no longer dominate the world. Asia is a big player and Latin America hasn’t even started playing yet. The only tool Americans (or Europeans) can fight with is education. The rest, as cruel as it sounds, have no choice but to stay poor.

This child is very bright. She has the ability to be a very good student. But I can tell you right now that if her homelife doesn’t change, the chances of her being a successful student are slim to none. C&YS were contacted. They spoke to the mother and she promised to get her daughter to school on time. That lasted about 1 week. Kids like this little girl fly right under the radar of Children& Youth services. Not enough neglect to remove the child–just poor parenting. Never the less, these children show up in classrooms all over the country and teachers must do their best to educate them. The trouble is –how do we undo what has already been done for the first 5 years of their lifes?
Forgive this analogy, but in a business or manufacturing enviornment, if the materials used to produce a product are inferior they are returned to the supplier. Educators do not have that option. We take all children and do our best to educate them and move them forward.
I love and nuture my kids all day long, but when the bell rings @ 3:30 they return to the place where sadly no one asks how was school today.
America needs to get very serious about good parenting. And not just to make a teacher’s job easier–but to make every child’s life better so she/he can actualize their potential and become well-adjusted,productive members of society. After all, isn’t that the real goal of education?

Is there more of a culture of violence in the urban AA population rather than the urban latino population? What I see in the Twin Cities still seems to fall more along the lines of dysfunctional families with generational histories of drug/alcohol abuse, child abuse and mental illness rather than racial lines. Still why do so many AA families succumb to this and other AA families do not?

I am “white” with distant Hispanic blood, yet my childhood heroes of learning were George Washington Carver and Booker T. Washington. They learned against odds.

At midyear 2008, there were 4,777 black male inmates per 100,000 black males held in state and federal prisons and local jails, compared to 1,760 Hispanic male inmates per 100,000 Hispanic males and 727 white male inmates per 100,000 white males.

My wife is a school social worker. She, teachers and school staff do far more to help students than most of us would consider doing in our day to day jobs. At least in the Twin Cities inner city schools, teachers work hard intellectually and emotionally to give kids a behavioral and educational chance to succeed. For some kids, its apparent as early as first grade that the kids behavioral issues and parenting are dooming him/her to crime. Some kids at that age are already sociopaths.

Other kids have a chance and show brilliance but the parents are more interested in drugs, crime, booze or the gang life. Often the grandparents are raising the kid while dad (whomever that is) is absent and mom is in and out of rehab or jail. Is refreshing to see the Latino and Somali families at her school. Both parents come to conferences and school events.

As long as illegitimacy rates remain high for AAs, their place in the permanent underclass will be guaranteed.

This is a cultural problem. The time is long overdue for leaders in the AA community to campaign HARD against illegitimacy.
