Seems that way here in Chicago.
All the good jobs are taken by the college educated out here.
I may pass by a token few while I walk the streets of the loop
that are dressed for work with suits, etc.
I honestly see as many homeless black beggers in the south
loop here as I see blacks dressed in working suits.
Meanwhile, the city itself is 45% black, and the city black community finds itself pretty much out of the running for jobs.
The unemployment rate in the black neighborhoods and suburbs
approches 30-40%, and the working 60% are in primarily
gov't or quasi gov't jobs like the Post Ofice and the DMV
or unskilled laborer jobs, in which they compete in a losing battle
with the hispanic illegal aliens.
The foreclosure rate in our minority neighborhoods and suburbs
is astronomical, and the boarded-up look is everywhere.
SO what's up with the marginal status of the black race today?
They seem to be completely out of the game and loop.
Is the game over for them?
