One of the major effects of this is to separate the people showing any incentive from the competition for college enrollment by putting them in jail. It insures that there will be a permanent ignorant underclass available for exploitation.

This American Aparitied (sp) is a shame to our country and society.
Oh come on, jobs move out from the city because its cheaper. There is no conspiracy.

I really hope the whole "us vs. them" thing would stop.....like this tendency to use the word "us" to mean "white people". Please refrain from including me in any of these generalizations just because I'm white. I do not wish to be associated with any such thinking. I didn't know there was a problem either.

Default bull****

someone didn't tell both sides of this story. as a whole, there are more black millionairs than any other minority group is america. we dominate sports, the music and fashion industries. Need i remind you, we are the most "copy-cated" race in america, bar none. Like the saying goes "everybody wanna be a *****, but don't nobody wanna be a *****". Oh yeah, I've been the jail before. I saw waaaaaaaaayy more mexicans in there then blacks.

College dorms are titanic wastes of $ anyway. For the dorm at my college, after I did the math, I figured out that I could buy a middle class home for the same price after 5 years. Dorms are SUCH WASTES OF MONEY! For the prices of a dorm I could be in a luxury apartment or buying a cheap home. For less than the dorm I am renting a three bedroom house and paying all the utilities. Maybe black students are just smarter than white students who are stupid enough to wanna be in a dorm.

are you kidding, if you commit a crime it's your fault. Do you understand the concept of consequence? Apparently not. DO you understand why we put people in jail? To protect people who don't commit crimes.
