Is your opinion on this based on research or anecdotal evidence?
I ask because I assume the 500% increase in minority incarceration over the last 30 years has had a massively negative impact on minority communities.
Also, most Conservatives would say the Welfare state and Great Society has only created a dependency on black communities, not mobility.
