pgMemberTo me, this seems to be the usual complaint about affirmative action. Unfortunately, this sentiment is not really true. Those who have received the greatest benefit from affirmative action are white women. Many people have trouble getting jobs today as the economy evolves from low-education/high-pay manufacturing to high-education/high-pay information society. The person making $60,000 a year with a high school education is rare today; they are generally in the lower-paying service sector. Before blaming affirmative action, check out the jobs available and skills required, and then take a hard look at your resume. As far as a second language, Americans have been isolated and have never really needed a second language. Citizens of less-isolated nations often speak two or three languages. With the development of a ‘global community,’ a second or third language would be to your benefit. In other words, look at trends and requirements and work to stay ahead of the curve.

pgMemberblacks in general are more likely to be overweight than whites. black women are also more likely to be overweight than men. this is most,likely the result of self image – blacks have not bought into the anorexic ideal of beauty which seems to have started in the 60’s with twiggy. neither black men nor women have problems with the zoftig female form. again this may account for a lower incidence of anorexia/bulimia in the black population.
