The racial aspect of "the gap that needs closing" applies to the survivors of the defunct h-g culture, in Oz.

The socio-economic aspect of the 'gap that needs closing' IS the socio-economic disadvantage which is manifested in the egregious socio-economic stats (related to black poverty) of the (black) gap.   

Quote:


Note: 'socio-economic' combines concepts of both culture AND economics.

So your question is invalid because blacks possess a culture (partly eclipsed - the degree to which this has happened is disputed), as well as being subject to the current vicious/competitive market economy (with the poverty-level dole as the 'safety net', for all races).


Quote:


I have said before: when Aboriginal poverty exists at the same rate as poverty in the non-aboriginal population, ie the black gap has been eradicated.

Have a read of this on Aboriginal PERPETRATORS! The stats don’t lie!

The whole farkkkking document is on Aboriginal offenders against women including Aboriginal women.

Oh dear, another slow learner, consequent to the 'black- white' (....no grey)  conservative dichotomy. 

Aboriginality is related  to low economic outcomes because of socio economic factors, as described, resulting in systematic exclusion from employment, as the h-g economy was pushed aside without creation of an alternative employment model** (ie different from the h-g 'employment' model in which living and employment are one and the same). 


**appropriate for blacks making the transition to a money economy.

Thanks for mentioning her, she's priceless** - as is your clever imitation of her in the above paragraph. 

Answers:

1. generous, non-racist people in Oz want to close the gap.

2. the JG is financed by properly instituted and authorized treasury and central bank operations, the quantum of financing  determined by the electorate, not the dictates of f**kwit ossified central bankers whose "independence" is a ruse to allow politicians off the hook for the dysfunctional economy.

**she is a sad reflection of the effects of decades of institutionalised poverty on the young in Britain, the outcome of Thatcher's dysfunctional neoliberal  orthodoxy which enforces unending 'austerity' on government social policy.

Oh, dearie, dearie, me, surely you have something more recent than 2010 to cite, Larry?  More over why are you relying on a foreign site when you can access the Institute of Criminology directly here in Oz?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...

You couldn't have espoused a bigger load of BS if you tried.

Most today who are claiming to be traditional leaders are so far from it it's not even humorous.

They never were & never will be.

You are such a lying wanker.

Aboriginal youth are running amok because they don't give a uc about tradition or traditional leaders.

And those that are classed as elders or traditional leaders are doing SFA to remedy the problem with their own youth because they are powerless.

Ah, I mistyped.  I actually meant to type "unwilling" but mistakenly forgot the "un" prefix.  I have now corrected it, so you might want to actually address what I meant to say and please, refrain from any Racism because it just betrays your ignorance and lack of education.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...

Unwilling to reconsider your ignorance or your Racism, hey, Gnads because you just love to insult and annoy your opponent?  Oh, dearie, dearie, me, Tsk, tsk, tsk...
