You say everyone and post a graph that doesn't prove everyone benefited.

OK.  Post your evidence to the contrary.

You made a claim.  Support it.  It's not my job to prove you wrong, it's yours to show evidence that you're right.
It's called a burden of proof.

Still waiting.

Here's another one for you to try to rebut.

You're not following. 
Pretty graphs, though.   I'm going to get some food.

I'm sure OAM will return with some rebuttal evidence.

In the meantime, I explored a link from Badge's link to the NPR story about New Deal programs turning integrated neighborhoods into segregated ones and I found this: https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/10/19/498536077/interactive-redlining-map-zooms-in-on-americas-history-of-discrimination.

And that led to this: https://dsl.richmond.edu/panorama/redlining/#loc=5/39.1/-94.58.

Which is interesting and disturbing.  You can go to any of the cities shown and see how "redlining" played out in them.

Man, earlier tonight I was walking down the sidewalk, looking up at the stars because they are incredible out here in the middle of the desert, and then WHAM! I swing my right leg right into a GD prickly pear cactus that was hanging out into the sidewalk. And of course I had sandals on, so I had thorns from my toe tops up to my lower shin. WOO WEE! That sucked.

Public-employee unions are problematic in a way that private-sector unions are not.  Public employees' union dues go in part toward political contributions to the same people with whom they negotiate their pay and working rules.
Winner winner.

Cool, I got to look back 6 pages to find this, to prove I'm not avoiding it.  What a fun thread.

So despite my already specifying it's not calling anyone racist, I guess me saying it again will help you believe me?? 
A)  It's not racist to find things similar to yourself slightly more meaningful.  We all do it.  But some of us do it a tiny bit and some of us do it continually. 
Ex:  If a bunch of UNARMED white men were being murdered by cops, it would hit closer to home for white people.  That's not calling anyone racist, I deem it pretty much an easy given.  Unremarkable.

B)  Again, as I stated in the first post addressing this, it's about unarmed people being murdered by police.  If it was a mixture of white, latino, and black, I'm sure we'd all hold hands together in protest.  Maybe not, but it'd be more likely, wouldn't it? 


Now go ahead and tell me how I'm wrong and blah blah.
If it was? It actually is. 50% white, 25% black and 25% Hispanic. We discussed this.

I would likely join a protest if I weren't practicing social distancing still. I'd probably hold an "all lives matter" sign.

Per my previous comment, there's a fundamental problem with public unions that tends to work against the public good.
I think teachers' unions are one of the impediments to real reform in public education.
Most definitely.

Ouch.

You know what the problem is here in Florida? No-see-um bugs.

You can't see them, and you don't know they bit you for hours, sometimes 10-12 hours. And then it's a bitch of an itch.

Finally found some stuff to work for me, but forgot to put it on last night whilst loading up the car. So, I'll bring some nice looking legs (like acne) back to Illinois.

The No-see-ums SUCK.
