Even Massachusetts Hispanics are just average. The average across a bunch of states with decent white scores\u2013Connecticut, Washington, Colorado, Minnesota\u2013pretty much the Hispanic average.<\/p>\n<p>To me, the lone data point with a real \u201cmessage\u201d is California\u2013it has the worst Hispanic scores, tied only by Alabama. Enough below the average i\u2019d guess there\u2019s statistical significance.<\/p>\n<p>My take home from that is the more Hispanics you take in, the more they live in a Hispanicized world, in Hispanic cities, with Hispanic norms, Hispanic teachers, administrators, public officials \u2026 the more mediocre the Hispanic performance. Essentially it degrades toward their performance in Latin America \u2026 because they are now living in a Latin America.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s essentially the problem with the Raj Chetty\u2019s bogus \u201csolution\u201d (integration with whites). With fewer and fewer whites around, you simple don\u2019t have enough whites to provide minority \u201cuplift\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>If you want the quality and amenities of a white country \u2026 you sorta need white people around to deliver them!<\/p>\n<p>* Despite the billions of tax dollars thrown at this intractable problem, the stats reveal that you cannot educate those who cannot be educated. Now the region formerly known as southern California has been transformed into Mexifornia. In fifty more years no one will believe that this was once the driver of the aerospace and defense industries. But you\u2019ll be able to get a killer taco de lengue on every rincon del calle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments to Steve Sailer: * Average Hispanic performance is just mediocre.
