[lbo-talk] A $95, 000 question: why are whites five times richer than blacks in the US?

[c b]

White families typically have assets worth $100,000 (£69,000), up from
$22,000 in the mid-1980s. African-American families' assets stand at
just $5,000, up from around $2,000.

CB: Isn't 100,000 20 times greater than 5000 ?
