Be interesting if there was a racial breakdown on exactly who is failing the 9th grade level testing. I don’t suppose there would be any correlation between a street ethic of deriding education as being “too white” and illiteracy on the job.
Equally, I’ve never seen any numbers to indicate what races comprise what percentage in union jobs. I’ve read elsewhere that unions jealously protect that information, if (indeed) they even know it.
It just seems to me that if you have generations being brought up to hate education, drop out of school, live on welfare and have babies, then what you’ll end up with is Detroit. And employers unable to fill entry-level jobs.
How hard would it be to make and program a robot to do 9th grade word recognition and basic math, and to *not* recognize the words “racism” or “affirmative action” or “lawsuit”.
