RE: hey i am josh(gaytheist)
It's like a white man moving to china and then complaining white people on average are poorer than chinese people.

100 white people. 20% are 'rich'. 20 rich white people.
10 black people. 20% are 'rich'. 2 rich black people.

Conspiracy theorist; Wealthly white people out number wealthy black people 20 to 2! On average black people are poorer than white people!

Sound the alarm..... Panic
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

Erm...that's not what your stats show at all. If 20% of white people are 'rich' and 20% of black people are 'rich', then on average (assuming we are only separating into groups of 'rich' and 'poor') they are the same.

I think the point that is being made here is that your 20% white/black example isn't the case in the real world. White people have a higher percentage of people classified as 'rich' than black people do. It has nothing to do with absolute numbers; it has everything to do with percentages, which are lower on the black side.

I think in China White people are richer normalized by population. Many white people over there are managing the buildings in which all the manufacturing is done.

Ditto what Adrian said.
'We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart.' H.L. Mencken

'False religion' is the ultimate tautology.

'It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.' Mark Twain

'I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.' Abraham Lincoln

Ok... I suck at statistics.

After using this information portal of mine called "internet connection" I learnt I sucked at statistics.

Well actually I wasn't far off, I was assuming the original poster was refering to actual numbers and not percentages within a group.

I stand corrected.
