The word ghetto is an old expression. It actually dates back hundreds of years to Italy and I believe it originally referred to the neighborhoods where Jews lived.

No it has not been lost in translation.....its a way for others to measure they're short comings to what they feel are the lowest class......its a insult to me when I hear it....because I know what they're really saying.................................
