    Not gimme jobs either. Real jobs with opportunities to excel and grow.
    Wouldn't you expect that to affect Blacks more than whites? Or at least city dwellers more than people out in rural, extremely white areas? Why would Mexican immigrants only be shortening white life expectancies?

    It used to be that women had to stay with abusive husbands, because men were the ones who made money. There was a social effort to give white men better jobs than more qualified Blacks. So a lazy, abusive white man could get a good job, and force a wife to stay with him. Now his wife would leave him, and a harder worker would replace him.

    Does it? The stats say there's a difference but part of that is the aftermath of the welfare system isn't it?

    Another part is simply the economics of our nation where over 90% of school funding is local. I'd like to see the Federal subsidies/breaks to schools increased to 20-30% where needed. Better education opens more doors for American citizens.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.

    Are you totally stupid? Have you spent any time traveling this great big country of ours at all? There hasnt been much difference between city and more rural areas in decades. You seem to have this insane idea that more rural areas of this country are like Mayberry complete with Andy and Barney. Truth is, that hasnt existed in decades. Thats all gone,...has been forever. There is literally almost no difference anymore. Only real difference is less people. You are living on a planet that doesnt exist and hasnt existed in a very long time. Wake the fuck up dude,... you sound like a fool.

    The Unibomber can't remember to change his underwear regularly. The guy is one of those idiot savants that is really good at math and stuff but totally insane and clueless about anything "normal."
