Funny , NOW polls are believable??either you believe them or you don’t. You can’t dismiss them every time they aren’t favorable to Trump but always embrace every poll related to minorities.

SURVEY FINDS BLACK BUSINESS OWNERSHIP IN THE U.S. JUMPED 400% IN ONE YEAR

African American business owners are on the rise. According to the Minority 2018 Small Business Trends survey, the number of black-owned small businesses in the U.S. increased by a staggering 400% in a year-over-year time period from 2017 to 2018.

The new survey, which was conducted by Guidant Financial and LendingClub, interviewed more than 2,600 business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs. It found that 45% of all small business in the country were owned by minority ethnic groups in 2018. This is a dramatic uptick from 2015 when the total percentage of minority business owners was 15%. The largest minority group of respondents were African American at 19%, followed by Hispanic at 14%, Asian at 8%, and Native American at 4%.

This isn't a poll.....or statistics.
This is PR from a payday lender....

If the US Labor Agency came up with this after the census....or similar, I'd put some stock into it.

Of, look at the inverse. Certainly we must see Food Stamp or other things BIGLY being reduced, right? After all, taking all the increases this Payday Lender has bragged about for 5 years every minority must be worth a lot by now, right?

What does this ^^ have to do with the original topic?

But IMO kids don't need hair extensions to be a good student. And I know from my black co-workers that hair extensions are expensive and a waste of money, especially for a child. It's a really stupid fashion statement and I would hope that no black child feels the need to be wearing them in order to feel attractive or cool.

All the gross exaggerations and failed deflection attempts in the world can't cover up how clueless you are about the true content of this survey.

You seem to be another one in here who can't stand to see or read about young African Americans succeeding in this country because you've never known success yourself. It's a damn shame that the mere thought of black entrepreneurship improving drastically in this country has you and others all up in your feelings looking for someone to attack.

Unlike some delusional folks, that haven’t the faintest clue. Good luck.

And 110% of blacks now approve of Trump.

Also, 450 Million illegals voted for Hillary.
Lol... yes, the numbers cited in the OP are ridiculous. It must be pretty tough to run a business when you are innumerate.
