Never said that. Not once. I'm probably the only one in his thread that is married and living "the traditional lifestyle"
In fact you dapped my earlier posts about marriage. I think it's great and it's what people should strive for, but it has nothing to do with wealth inequality/achievement in America
Men should be there. Has nothing to do with wealth inequality
Make dumb ass assumptions brehettes
It explains alot about your position then. ..
You're also reducing my argument down to marriage solves all problems which is not what I've ever said.
Preaching against it is destructive to me though which is why I'm combating the rhetoric that marriage doesn't matter.
I agree that institutionalized racism has made wealth building hard for black people.
But my question to you is, define wealth. I want to know what exactly you think determines wealthy status for black people.

Dz Ali OG...Pay me like you owe me!
Be a use its like you renting a room in my house. You can make your room pretty as you want...but if I want to I can destroy your room, sell it, or kick you out. It's my house.
US building an economy will work in a similar manner. Ultimately cacs own it.
They won't unless you build an economy amongst your own people. Indians and Asians are proving that point with buying all types of shyt in the western world. America is for sale.
How would white people own something if we own it? Stop being so self deprecating.
Black group economics is a far better starting point than some radical ass shyt I've seen you suggest on this forum btw.
Do you know how currency works? Ever seen what The US's sanctions on other economies does to those countries? Do you pay taxes or interest on anything that you've bought? There you go.
Not one person has said to not get married. We know yall want rings and we understand its the best way to raise healthy offspring. Its just not the focal point for building wealth.
It doesn't matter there owning there in the race where we ain't know no where to be seen in it. Even to the point theses Middle eastern and Asian people are providng black products and services to us in our communites what kind of shyt is that.
This isn't true at all. You do realize that Arabs and Asians only makeup a FRACTION of the Black American population? If you took the best 10 million African Americans socioeconomically then of course our numbers would look great.
THE GOVERNMENT gives them tax credits for opening gas stations and other small businesses. I bet you didn't even know that.
On top of that, they have home countries they can import raw goods and finished products to sell to us.
And even still, they don't have as much wealth as White people.
Do blacks have more wealth than asians?
This thread is specifically about wealth inequality in America.
Talking about marriage rates is a distraction from both the cause and solution for the specific topic of wealth inequality in America.
I've never spoken against marriage. And marriage does not matter for the specific topic presented in this thread.
Again in the context of this thread and the studies in the op. Wealth is the measurement of ownership:
To me personally wealth is happiness and prosperity.
