2020 Dems - Sell USA? - Page 26 - Business, Finances and Investing Forum

This is false.

In general, Asians in the lowest decile of parental income and the lowest parental educational attainment are on average in the middle class within one generation. Truly extraordinary:

Look at that graph. Asians born to very dirt poorest of parents - below the poverty line - end up in the middle class on average. If that's not a robust meritocracy, what is? And people are saying ITT we need to change this system to something more socialist? Extraordinary. If anything we should be teaching the emulation of Asian cultures.

Asian Americans have basically the same upward mobility as white Americans, which is supported by your graph.

Graph seems to show unjust racial inequality is a powerful thing, and that independent of race, where you start out has an extremely large impact on where you end up, on average. Thanks TS.

This is just you lying again. Exploring what is properly defined as racism isn't racism, it's basic philosophy.

It's the same reason Mat shut the old politics down. Poo flinging chimpanzees don't keep clean nests.

Plus my posts exposed well named's ignorance and poor scholarship (he deleted posts which were not at all racist which made his "scholarship" look foolish) so he was less inclined to deal with it. It's par for the course with SJWs and fundamentalists - reasoned criticism is something that must be attacked at all costs.

Anyway, I've got my answer and actually this thread here in BFI was pretty great in seeing the incredible economic ignorance that I didn't think existed in the modern world. I assume people are normal and sane when talking to them but ultimately SJWs are like right wing rednecks or racists - small worldview, limited philosophical understanding, limited broad cultural experience, poor understanding of history, horribad understanding of basic economics. It's just ignorance + nasty emotions + groupthink.

Love well named and I think he's doing a good job with that forum. He's hard left but with none of the flaws of the old politics mod. New politics has the Toothsayer seal of approval. And I'll leave it at that.

lol
