We realize that is YOUR point, but your comment is purposefully leaving out the context of Urban's comment which is that this is happening at all universities that receive public funding. Why only mention the black ones ?

seems this is racial on the rights part to me. hmm.

Democrats in Congress caused the recession, which you would know if you actually were interested in learning historical facts, rather than imbibing and then regurgitating LWNJ propaganda that you hear on MSNBC.
Please tell us more about this fictional history, planning on writing a fiction based book with it?

What are you talking about? Harrier posted what happened.

Have you been so deluded by LWNJ propaganda that you can't recognize the truth when it is right in your face?

Do some research - Harrier can't help you of you choose to be willfully ignorant about the issue which you are discussing.

Why, so he can make sure he cuts off the little chance a black or a mexican had off actually providing work to the federal government.
I wish there were an option to hide spam and hate filled comments like this one above ^

Youtube has a policy where if a comment gets enough dislikes it's counted as spam and the comment itself is covered up, so people don't have to come across the stupid ramblings of racists and bigots.

Sure thing kiddo, Harrier is 100% accurate with Harrier's history, the country's problems are all the Democrats' fault.

That was 6 to 7 years ago. Recessions usually happen every 5 to 7 years and we're ready for another 1, the difference we NEVER came out of the last 1 IMHO.

We do not go into a recession every 5-7 years and the recession we are working our way out of was the worst recession since the Great Depression.

On average we have recessions about 5 to 7 years.
