''Lets play a game: lets pretend that I may have gone and done some homework- perhaps even an obsessive quantity of homework- before I'm moved to any absolute declaration rather than simply questioning. In this case I am quite sure that Poverty is a massive contributor to a predominantly and shamefully black problem in the US and that the solution is not to feed them for a day or advocate "change the damned system, not the family" which was one of the disastrous responses 50 years ago. If the status quo prevails, the next development is Hispanics with their maintenance of family units following Vietnaamese and other underclasses in surpassing black prosperity by far. What then?
I don't know.
As I said before, people outside a group looking in aren't the best judges of what's right for that group.
Anyone who does not go overboard- deserves to.
