In theory, lets say we took a black person out of the ghetto..... then gave him a super higher paying job.... like millions of dollars..... to do something simple that he enjoyed doing....

would that get rid of the criminal problem?
Actually I think that would get rid of the problem, at least for a period of time, but it is obviously not a feasable solution and it treats the symptoms rather than the cause. First of all, it's important to recognize that there are no simple solutions and even the most effective solutions will take years to see major effects. If you remember, I propsed some measures earlier (or maybe it was another thread). They included increased availability of after school programs, increased availability of preschool, job training, and a larger police presence in high crime areas.
