As I've said previously....
This is actually one of the 4 or 5 reasons why I say people being overly concerned with "wealth"(Nondepreciating assets) is a silly attempt to justify [insert political worldview / policy here]. I can point you to plenty of African nations with a "wealth" of Nondepreciating assets(on the open market) ...still isn't some grand panacea if noone is willing to buy, they devaluate it / charge more if it comes from you, and you have little means to develop the assets.
EXAMPLE:
In the case of a place like Zimbabwe they straight up told them to "eat" their mineral wealth because they would not buy from Zimbabwe, plunging the country into depression even though that had supplies of (Nondepreciating assets)
I.E.
Even if African Americans owned equal/proportionate amounts of "stuff"(Nondepreciating assets) there still wouldn't be an equal/proportionate wealth assessment because we don't determine the valuation. When you concern yourself with wealth assessment you are concerning yourself with outsider assessment of value.
(And again thats just issue 1 of 4 or 5 that I have with "wealth" talk as of the last 2 or 3 years ....I should make a dedicated thread)
