You discuss how people grow up in bad areas. Then MOVE.


Red, I'm sorry that you're so angry. I'm sorry that you weren't able to research any of the historical and current facts that contribute to the generational degradation within communities of color and poor whites. I'm also sorry that much of your previous post was filled with many hasty generalizations and appeal to authorities. I don't think that's a fertile environment for an informative exchange of ideas.

Last, I will agree that some things are self inflicted, but many things simply are not. It's the result of bad legislation, refusal of capital, and underfunding education.
