Something like that happens among people. There have been many ponderous academic writings and dour editorials in the mainstream media, lamenting that most people born poor cannot rise in American society any more. Meanwhile, many poor immigrants arrive here from various parts of Asia and rise on up the ladder anyway.
Often these Asian immigrants arrive not only with very little money, but also very little knowledge of English. They start out working at low-paid jobs but working so many hours, often at more than one job, that they are able to put a little money aside.
After a few years, they have enough money to open some little shop, where they still work long hours, and still save their money, so that they can afford to send their children to college. Meanwhile, these children know that their parents not only expect, but demand, that they make good grades.

the asians are a hell of a lot smarter than the ghetto rats. that is why one group prospers, and the other needs "affirmative action".
Jackson and Sharpton are examples of human cancer. They are nothing but race pimps who only look to profit from their own race no matter what the costs. Wake up Black America, your own people are sucking you dry and using you like a pimps!
"From 2002 to 2007, the number of black-owned businesses increased by 60.5 percent to 1.9 million, more than triple the national rate of 18.0 percent, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's Survey of Business Owners. Over the same period, receipts generated by black-owned businesses increased 55.1 percent to $137.5 billion." These are the stats. Anectdotal info.: I see the spirit of entrepeneurship running stronger in black youth today than ever before. Know one young man who had a small start up catering biz that has grown to the point where he has left his job to go into biz. full time. My barber just opened his second shop. My small town has had atleast 6 other black startups over the last 5 years.
