I wonder if having more whites in your community makes you less prone to economic disaster.

You mean like all the white guys running Wall St?

Whats most interesting was there was only 1 county in all the united states that kept unemployment at 1.9% or less. That was Slope County, North Dakota.

Its a small county but doing more research, i found that out of the population of 767 people that live there, 765 of them are white. Its the highest percentage of white population anywhere in the country. The two people that live there that are not white, 1 is native american and 1 is hispanic.

I wonder if having more whites in your community makes you less prone to economic disaster. I mean...could it really be a coincidence that the highest percentage of whites in a county also has the lowest percentage of unemployment just by chance?

The WHOLE state have low unemployment. North Dakota have a STATE OWNED BANK, many natural resources too.

Is it the "coincidence" that one county in North Dakota have the lowest unemployment because it is in the STATE with lowest unemployment, and surplus in the budget?

it was more like a bruise moving from coasts in or a virus.

LOL - yeah, it could be seen that way. Either way - pretty scary! That thing still has 8.5% as the UE rate - nice try! I wonder what it would look like if they were using U6?

Its meant for all these white moaners who say the dark skinned people are responsible for high unemployment in this country - why they dont just pack up their bags and go and live in Northen Europe where there is a very small % of darkies.

"I wonder if having more whites in wall street makes you more prone to economic disaster."

How does that make you feel peilthetraveler?

Ok, I make the observation of wall street, white people, and economic disaster. I ask peil what he think of that observation.
My real opinion is the disaster come from investment banking mix with commercial banking is too systemic, not white people.

This county and the majority of North Dakota for that matter is agricultural based. But slope county is predominately all cattle ranchers which are always employed.
