[QUOTE="inactive, post: 3215449, member: 7488"] That's the point the article makes waaay down the page. But then brings up race when it further points out that income level correlates with race. But I agree and think "Whites consume more and thus cause more pollution" coupled with "Whites live in the 'burbs away from polluted air" is an intellectually dishonest to frame it. As race [I]correlates[/I] with income, it doesn't [I]determine[/I] one's income (nor obviously does income determine race). [/QUOTE]
