Define "proper compensation". Most would say it is what the market says it is.

And the Utah markets have so many professionals of those types, that the competition drives it down. Which is a normal market force. And a good one for consumers.

I know plenty extremely wealthy professional types though in Utah. So it isn't that bad.

Have you considered trying essential oils?

Great article and love the way the author looks at the necessary aspect more objectively w/o the stereotypes.

Also in Utah, upper class seem to still send their kids to public school.

That's a very good point. I grew up in the Boise area (so not Utah) but the same was true there.

Cultural homogeneity and, yes, race, have a lot to do with that

Could it be considered narrow-minded to think racial lines are the same as economic lines? I did a

Fair point. Nonetheless, lower class kids get to interact with and model upper

I am actually surprised that the article was so fair to the Church, impressive

You didnt read it, you skimmed it. It said other factors were more important

She lost me when her liberal chant about "the church’s racist past" came out.

Racism card is way overused in society but the church ban was textbook racism

rcbyufan

Exactly. The policy was explicitly racist. You can debate whether it was right

Just as there were racist mistakes in the US generally.

I don't think anyone debates that the US in general had major issues with racism
