How do you figure that the average black student comes out of the worst school system in the nation?

Thats about the biggest generalization I have ever seen. You're assuming that just because they are black they go through a bad school system. Not hardly. The world today is geared towards helping the less fortunate. Well it was, until G.W. Just because there are a few bad school districts, that are prodominently black, doesn't mean anything. There are plenty of bad school districts for whites and other minorities.

None of that is taken into account.

Paragraph 3.

The average white male's salary is $61,000. Black male? $53,000.

That's hardly SIGNIFICANTLY less.

(By the way if you're going to say about the women, its White Woman = $48,000, Black woman= $46,000)

Sure, there are poor black kids, but there are also poor white kids, and asian kids, and muslim kids, and arab kids. It's a part of life. I don't think that just because they are black, or white or asian or green or purple , they should get a free ride.
