Never thought I would either but here we are right smack in the middle of Utah Co. Never know.

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

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

rcbyufan
