How we can close the racial wealth gap

I disagree with the emphasis on closing various types of gaps. If this means some groups or individuals accelerate away from others, so be it. It is my understanding that we benefit greatly from the culture and technology which largely comes from those with Westen values and who have IQs over a 120. So I'm not okay diverting academic resources away from those that are cognitively gifted just so you can close gaps. Also, schools will naturally exacerbate inequities because individuals that are fast learners (high g) will accelerate away from the low g students. Schools don't need to close all the gaps. Don't throw all your money at the smart kids, and don't throw all your money at the slow ones either. It is especially important that you don't throw all your money at the students that are learning English as a second language. It is extremely important that we slow down immigration because they tax our academic resources with ESL programs and so forth, when the money could instead be spent on those that have a heritage and history living here legally. I'd hate for music, robotics, or archery classes to be diminished or eliminated so as to allow funding for lots of special ed and ESL courses.
