Education Gap or Culture Gap

I love reading stories about the poor Hispanics or Latinos that are disadvantaged because they don't make as much money as everyone else. If you have read such trash before, you may be familiar with my home town paper. Most stories tend to only focus on pay and ignore education levels. Is it fair that the group that has the smallest amount of education gets paid the least? In my world it is. Education is a normal good. The more of it you have the more you typically make. Brink Lindsey who is the vice president for research at the Cato Institute, has an article worth reading. The Culture Gap.

On the bright side for those of us pursuing a college degree. Apparently the demand for people with a college degree is not being met. That means more money to those who have a degree typically. So make sure you read The Culture Gap and make sure that your culture is not setting you up for future economic failure.
