Public Policy Blacks, Hispanics hardest hit by economic meltdown, but happy, optimistic?

Poor and happy? That sounds inconsistent and maybe inconceivable.
That Blacks and Hispanics are the hardest hit by the excesses of Wall Street enabled by pampered irresponsible and largely uncaring and disconnected from reality members of congress sounds very consistent and conceivable.
I once heard a Southern bigot commenting on the PBS program Now that the poor in the region were fine just as they were. He went on to say that though they were poor they were happy. From the sound of it when both Black and White poor were interviewed they looked none too happy to me but on the other hand they did look poor.
