Black vs White

You have completed the African American - European American IAT.

Your Result
Your data suggest a strong automatic preference for European American compared to African American.
Thank you for your participation. Just below is a breakdown of the scores generated by others. Most respondents find it easier to associate African American with Bad and European American with Good compared to the reverse.

I have issues with this test, does not prove anything. I got boned a few times on the words because of my dyslexia, I got every image only run perfect with no errors. My sexual preference is def European over Black people if that matters lol.

The test is bullshit, I got zero x's and was pretty consistent in time until the last one when it puts foreign with white faces and american with American landmarks. I slow down but has nothing to do with race it has to do with how random the items are and your reversed from the previous test which side to place them. I find the test totally useless. I want to see your rating I bet it will be some what the same.

West Vancouver housing prices see massive jump - British Columbia - CBC News

A housing survey by Royal LePage indicates prices in West Vancouver, B.C., are rising faster than any other major city in Canada — and offshore money from Asia is fuelling the rise.

Royal LePage says properties in West Vancouver posted the most massive gains over the third quarter, with the price of a detached bungalow climbing about 25 per cent since this time last year to an average price of $1.2 million.
Sigh, I am never going to be able to buy a home

This comment says it all from a poster on CBC

If the Government doesn't step in soon and regulate foreign ownership of Residential Property it will be impossible for even a Doctor to own a home. Absolutely no working family can pay this kind of money much longer.

Ya right, it's more like the price of a detached bungalow built in 1948 and slated for demolition is about 1 million...

There should be a 100% tax fro anyone who buys a house in Canada and is not from the country. The middle class dream is dying a slow death in Canada.

What's your issue with Asians? I don't get it.

Besides your stereotype of Asians being bad drivers and have a dirty dirty culture.
Bush Tax Cuts == Job Killer
June 2001: 132,047,000 employed
June 2003: 129,839,000 employed
2.21 million jobs were LOST after 2 years of Bush Tax Cuts.
