the U.S. economy "misses out on $956 billion dollars per year, along with numerous non-monetary benefits, as a result of postsecondary attainment gaps by economic status and race/ethnicity."

Counter point

No one is paying back anything at all now

So no it will not be paid back if you add more people that will never pay it back

What a fricking load of shite

Just because more people get educated, doesn't mean there will be an exact number of jobs available or the economy will grow.


Liberal arts degrees tend not to grow our economy.

When everyone has a college degree, nobody has a college degree.

They say this until you get into the actual upper level courses where 10 people are in your class and the one black chick is always forgetting to bring a pencil to the damn exam.

Even such a simple task she is expects to be helped by others.

Blacks have been at the bottom of academic performance forever in grades 1 thru 12. Seeing major improvement earlier in their education would seem more sensible.

So Yshoo should be doing a puff piece on Biden any day now for securing long term funding for HBCU’s. Wait...that was Trump that did that. I bet they still credit Resident Biden.

There is some truth that opportunity to all creates more strength in the end. I never go against opportunity. I go against equity. Opportunity is starting from the ground up and working on public education which the Fed government has destroyed. Then work on things like..don't shoot each other or assault cops then wonder why you get shot.

Simple things.

This is of course stupid. The only way for this to be true would be a massive shortage of labor for jobs that require a degree that can mysteriously only be filled by minorities.

Shouldn't they work on minorities finishing grade school first.

Waste of money.

Need to stop subsidized breeding by people too immature to raise kids and stop abortions. Personal responsibility needs to be addressed in all groups/ethnicities.

This from the people who said people on welfare are good for the economy.
