Strikeout: Stop making excuses. The kids in the back have just as good a chance as the kids in front.
CCCP: It is a culture issue. The kids in the back just need to work hard to succeed. Also there are some white people in back and blacks in front-NOT race. Keep America Great!
Tang, you are becoming a lost cause. You will never help The indigent because you will constantly make excuses for them instead of being proactive and finding solutions. Until you grow up and stop making excuses, you might as well give up on your causes because you only make the situation worse. A true winner faces adversity with solutions. A loser blames everyone else. If you really want to make a difference, read "7 habits of highly effective people." It will change your whole outlook and you will finally start doing something productive instead of ******** all the time. GROW UP, man. You're not a kid anymore. Life comes with challenges. How will you respond?
Would you agree that there is a difference between making excuses and saying that some people have an advantage? I already listed out some solutions, but we must agree on simple facts and the fact that we NEED change to come up with solutions.
Let's say the situation in the video is true to life. Let's say the kids in the back lose, even though they try as best they can. Would you say that those kids are 'losers' and that everyone who states that those kids are at a disadvantage are making excuses for them? It makes more sense to say that those kids are at a disadvantage, so we should help them find solutions to have a fair fight.
I will look into your book, but to the accusation that I am not productive and doing things, well, you are incorrect. Just today I helped out with a poverty simulation to spread awareness, and my father and I have helped hundreds of people get out of poverty through the organization we work with. Here are some other things the government can do:
1. Equalize school funding.
2. Invest in local poverty solutions.
3. Reduce the effect of redlining by desegregating schools, making housing affordable, and opening up communities.
4. Better police accountability by requiring body cameras, and unbiased judicial system.
5. Better and more public defenders.
6. Don't criminalize drugs as much/target black neighborhoods.
7. Break the school to prison pipeline?
8. Prison system reform encouraging rehabilitation, ESPECIALLY for drug offenses.
9. Stop voter ID laws.
