Derf's Grotto

[gotmilk]

"... whatever creative things we could think of to raise money."

You were able to create something to obtain big money that followed from the flow of money from your parents to allow you to obtain an education following a good high school education based on the upper middle class area where your parents lived that funded lots of cash to the schools based on high property taxes.

So "what the heck message are we sending" where those folks that live in an area having a non-ending cycle of poverty where property taxes obtain directly, or through rent, are of a low value such that the schools are delivered cash that only allows a sub-standard education to all students such that their opportunities based on leaned skills only allows flipping burgers.

The intelligent and motivational skills of those located in the areas marked by poverty and inferior living conditions are the same as folks in your area.

A high percentage of derfies in your area obtain success.

A very low percentage of derfies having a poor education with poor parents obtain success, where most become skilled in criminal activity.

It's obvious that you never felt the rage associated with incorrectness dumped upon you from society.

"Put someone in an incorrect situation, and they will act incorrect." - ancient Churakian proverb
