However, I do have to admit that it has never occurred to me to spend some of my discretionary income filling in a pothole. There are some communal requirements that require a communal organization (ie. Read More...

The biggest mistake that has been made is the overemphasis on higher education for all and the downgrading of trades and skills.

So many students are looking to work abroad beyond just China, reflecting the expansion of markets globally facilitated by worldwide communication via phones, internet, etc. As a student, I see the quickly realization on campuses nationwide of the importance of communication skills of international studies and foreign Read More...

No harm how to get rid of anxiety you if it (a prayer) is useless, but it may help.....and that is why true Christians pray. Nothing is certain, and faith helps fill that void of uncertainty and the anxiety it creates.

Your response is non sequitur. WEW didn't say that there is no racial discrimination, merely that it is not a primary cause of any of significant black problems.
