How come hispanics make more than blacks when blacks have been living in the States forever while hispanics are recent inmigrants largely descriminated upon, including by blacks?
How come you could be naturalized as an American citizen and still be ignorant enough to think Hispanics in the US are just "recent immigrants?"

Are you saying Hispanics are no better than Niggers?

Aren`t rural areas mostly white?
This could perhaps explain the size of the gap a bit- urban folk tend more towards renting whilst people in the country own.

I'm guessing our very liberal naturalization laws.

Speaking for South Carolina, no.

Of course in Canada, the answer is very much yes.  Or, at least, white and native.

To answer Tyr more completely - immigration over the past 40-50 years has been almost entirely to urban areas.  So our rural areas tend to mirror the racial mixture of 40-50 years ago.

You are never going to settle Nunavut that way!

I lost 2/3rds of my wealth a couple of years ago. My household also got 50% smaller.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Well, no kidding. :lol:

I guess it does depend on what he means by mostly.  Taken as a whole, South Carolina's rural areas are probably "mostly" white, in that the white rural population exceeds 50%.

Quite a few of them are.
