This is the definitive book on educational statistics that my friend Hanna wrote. It is obvious from the stats that the more money spent does not indicate an improvement in learning.

In California's future, the whites and Asians with college educations will be the technocrats who run things.

The Hispanics will own the service industries and trades.

Blacks will be faced with a choice: reject the underclass "culture" or be left behind and forgotten.

Harsh but true. I have been saying for a long time that the future is grim for the black underclass in America. Governments at all levels are cutting back on welfare. Illegals do all the menial work that high school dropouts used to do. No one will hire "urban youth" with pants around their knees, incomprehensible speech, and a bad attitude.

And the public no longer cares. The Sixties are over.

Personally, I expect a lot of "urban unrest" and "racial tensions" when the black underclass finally realizes that they really are left behind for good.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inland_Empire_(California)
The Inland Empire refers to the region in Southern California located in Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. The Inland Empire is centered on the oldest cities in the region: Ontario, San Bernardino, Redlands, Upland, and Riverside. These cities were established at about the end of the 19th century and were major centers of agriculture including citrus, dairy, and wine-making. The name "Inland Empire" was first used in the 1950s to distinguish the region from the communities of the Los Angeles area, and Los Angeles itself.

Some California scriptwriter wrote in the movie, Annapolis, that Arkansas was always grateful for Mississippi because they were always above Mississippi in all categories. California ought to change their attitudes.

But there is a difference between black and Hispanic young men.

Hispanics may be in gangs, but they rarely bother anyone outside. And, they tend to work, even while in the gang. And very few of them get into real trouble.

The dropout rate for Hispanics is almost as bad as blacks. The difference is that Hispanics go to work. There are plenty of jobs they can do with little education. They are on their way to dominating the trades and blue collar work, at least here in CA.

Blacks, on the other hand, will not work. The dropouts become drug dealers or wannabes, spending their days on the street getting into trouble. Their level of violence is rapidly increasing.

So, in the future, I expect most Hispanics to get by, working at something, and at least leaning toward the mainstream. Remember- Hispanics come from a culture and other countries where there is no safety net.

Blacks are being destroyed by their endless sense of victimhood and entitlement. As the entitlements end, their bitterness and anger grows. Their cultural alienation from mainstream culture is getting worse, and therefore the white mainstream is further isolating them.

When all these young black men realize that our society no longer needs them, and that they will never, ever get anywhere, they will explode.

Fewer and fewer people are intimidated by blacks these days. Young people simply don't care. They were born after the "civil rights era" and they have no guilt about the past. That's death to the black victim agenda.

Look for some tough, rough times in the cities.

I'm leaving CA soon. I don't want to be here for the riots.

Judging from my service at the Olive Garden last night, I agree with this report!

Much less to do with socialism than with immigration and local politics

Cure your ignorance here.

"Governments at all levels are cutting back on welfare. "

Welfare is the thing that has been keeping people down for generations -

When poor women are "hired" by the government to produce poor children, we will never see the cycle end.

I'm sure some of it is the illegals, but Texas Ranks #25 on the list and we have just as bad of a problem with Illegals as California. Blame the policymakers and Parents.
