can't be broken homes or divorces. What I am saying that these three things have been proven to work in keeping people out of poverty for every race and gender. Finish high school, Get a full time job, and don't get married until 21 and don't have kids until married. I don't really think that is an unrealistic goal. I agree that people will still get divorced and such but just waiting until 21 makes all the difference in the world. Stats say that over 90% of people who follow these three simple rules are not in poverty as adults and it doesn't matter what zip code you are from. I was turned on to this from a black preacher I know who is the exact opposite of me politically. Too many black kids think that sports and entertainment is there way to make it, but I think these three rules should be preached over and over again as their way out of poverty.
