Peterson's 12 Rules For Life, have you heard of this?

Rich african americans (even famous ones) also get pulled over for driving while black.  I'm not sure that prosperity is more than a canard in this context.  

Right, and this a problem I've mentioned. Wherever there is the ability or need to arbitrate, then the stereotypes that an officer operates on will lead to that. And it's not only white cops, right? My understanding is that black cops also preferentially detain or harass black civilians-- so they have the same stereotypes in play.

I don't know what the solution to that is. I'd imagine that outraged civilians with guns or a couple torched police stations might make people think twice.

Real opportunity is not present in places -with- tidy gdps, as the case of georgia demonstrates so well.  

I have no doubt that there's a great deal of racial prejudice in much of the south, and probably everywhere. Certainly, I can say that Asian countries explicitly and unapologetically look down on black people.

Entitlements make great-smelling farts.  You could try just handing everyone a check, I suppose, and pat yourself on the back.  But it won't work.

Handouts handouts handouts.

I'd rather make it an entitlement of citizenship, and bundle it with clearly-outline responsibilities.

If all individuals are treated equally, then there is no longer any such thing as a group which is being treated unequally.

Imagine that..and not a single farthing taken from anyone.

Don't you dare agree with me. I've been saying this for many pages.
