Because it is a judgemental thing. The author is judging the entire group of “white taxpayers” as those that “don’t want to waste money” on SGI education.
You seem to be operating under the assumption that the author is using “white taxpayers don’t want to waste money” in some general sense, but he isn’t. The chart is discussing a very specific cycle.
Yes, it does. How you can arrive at a different interpretation is beyond me.
The dominant group “white taxpayers” don’t want to waste money on SGI education as part of the cycle outlined, which means that the “white taxpayers” actions directly influence the cycle in a negative way.
White taxpayers are part of the problem, that is literally what it is stating.
No, it does not explicitly state this. We know this isn’t true. We pumped $7B into SGI education per the links above. Who do you think paid for that?
Lol… I’m not trying to make “white people” the victim. I’m saying the chart is stupid for the reasons stated. I’m saying the authors premise is factually inaccurate and I’ve got $7B in funding specifically for SGI education to back that up.
Taxpayers, many of which are white, fund SGI education.
Taxpayers, many of which are white, want to maintain or increase educational spending.
It’s complete nonsense. A lack of funding is not holding SGI’s back.
The chart is about the cycle SGI’s are stuck in partially or fully because their schools are underfunded by “white taxpayers” according to the author. It’s dumb to assert “white taxpayers” think it’s a waste of money to support SGI education.
My god, even a majority of Republican’s support increased educational spending per Pew.
