    We only take up 13% of this country compared to our white counterparts of 67%. Of that 13% it is less than 2% who makes 100k or more, compared to white counterparts is at 34%. It is a big difference only because of the years of impoverished and lack of resources and to be frank we are the minority in this country but we have the highest debt to income ratios than any other race in this country and that is where we fall. That is the main reasons why. The lack of resources and going and staying in debt to please others and not delaying gratification. The average black man let alone truck driver carries a 70-80%of their income in debt. Car loans, credit cards, (student loans) education that they dont use, furniture bills, and over consumption of department store credit lines, and buy now pay later. And child support/alimony.

      Culture plays a part as well. Because many in our culture are reckless. Go to any inner city. This is a factor other races don’t deal with in large PERCENTAGES. That’s why I always look at these numbers sideways because if we didn’t have a part of our community involved in BS. We’d be waaaaayy better!

      @SVT8203 the crime rates come from the lack of resources. If you cant make thr money to survive or take care of your family the average man wld find a way.

      @@larrysmith2655 the reason why we go and deal with bs is because we lack the resources and education. If we were taught how to buy a home, about credit, real estate, investing, and etc we wouldnt go through any of that and that is what our white counterparts have on is, they have over a 100 years on us

      @@longterminvestmentsonly4817 this is and has been the weakest excuse ever. Other races came here and experienced similar circumstances as we did yet made a way for themselves and their communities without going to crime. Our ancestors built whole townships before and during segregation; yet, you mean to tell me in these times when it is the easiest as it has ever been for blacks to achieve something more for ourselves we choose to do crime, because we have less or no money? That’s a cop out if I ever heard one. I’m blessed to have wised up and left the streets alone, but during my time out there doing dumb stuff I noticed most of the people hustlin didn’t come from being homeless or homes where they didn’t eat for days. No, they were from homes with people who gave their all to make sure their children could make a way for themselves, but those same children chose to go “hustle” and blame it on being a victim, instead of working hard to obtain something legally. Heck, I’ve witnessed athletes with promising futures put themselves in situations where they die or catch felonies for no reason other than to be considered hood, but if you seen the way they were living at home you’d just be left asking yourself, why?
      It’s has nothing to do with having less money and everything to do with the mentality of being systemically oppressed that the majority of us have seemed to latch on to. There are dudes out here with 10’s and 100’s of thousands of dollars from illegal affairs and they don’t invest or use it for anything good, but continue to do crime. What is the excuse for that person?
      Even lower level folk, like I used to be, only touching a few grand at a time, what do they do after obtaining that money to better themselves? Nothing. Nothing, is the answer. That’s because it isn’t about the money it’s the mentality that has been engrained in the culture that we have less because we are oppressed and therefore need to struggle to survive; yet again, this is the furthest from the truth in this day in age.
      I apologize if this was a long reply, but there is so much that needs to be discussed about this topic and I’m passionate about seeing a change in our people and the way we do things. We as a people need to be having this conversation on a grand scale.

    MBM trucking base out of rocky mt north Carolina was a racist company for the terminal in Oklahoma, they purposely mistreated and skipped over and did everything bad to black truck drivers picking up or delivering to the Oklahoma location, that's why punishment came back on them and the company failed and out of business,
