Because it's irrelevant pedantry?

The article is saying unemployment is very low so your point doesn't stand. The minimum wage isn't hurting employment. What's hurting people are the low wages.

Walmart, Amazon and Target are doing fine and still pay low wages. I don't understand your point or choice of companies to list.

Sure. But it's hardly suprising nor is it a useful comparison to say airpods make more revenue than Twitter.

Most profitable company in the tech world creates new product and uses prior manufacturing skill, brand awareness/loyalty, device lock-in, advertising experience and retail channels to sell it and makes more profit that arbitrary list of companies in different business areas. What's the point?

You can always adopt or foster children if you really regret it later. There are plenty of children that exist that need good homes without having to create more.

> Does the fact that black Americans used to be slaves in the US, or were kept out of certain housing markets, contribute towards the fact that black Americans, on average, have lower credit scores, income, wealth, and collateral? Of course. But is this model racist? Literally not at all.

Saying that because history was racist means I'm absolved of responsibility going forward is not a strong argument. Redlining was literally a racist behavior. The point of the article is to be aware of it so you can try do better than in the past.

Even if this is true (which I don't believe based on your anecdotal evidence about Gen Z who max out at age 24), why is it bad?

> I'm just saying that arresting 84% blacks is not necessarily racist _by the cops_, because every one of those 46 arrests may well have a video like this one, and this guy deserved it.

Deserves to be detained for eating a sandwich? Beligerant for expressing how stupid that is? The police department apologized for this so even they don't agree with you. I think we're done here. Good luck.

So your claim is despite the black ridership being 10%, black people are more likely to be beligerant or do something else that is somehow hidden but illegal so citing for eating is justified?

You're really bending over backwards to give Bart police a pass.
