Nobody ever explained to me why saying Jewish people were good

I bet the Jewish guys were laughing the hardest.

It has become politically and culturally incorrect to make
generalizations about any group of people even if there is strong
statistical evidence to back up the assertion.

Of course as we have seen, there are exceptions to every rule.

So, Gregg, do you think "Jewish people" are good businesspeople because
there is something inherent in the Jewish religion that genetically
encodes them to be that way, even though religion is cultural?

It is cultural.
Most of the cultural factors are positive
Education
Low alcohol and drug use
Responsibility
Family structure
Community networks
Tradition.

Yeah that is a horrible thing to point out.

...the structure of the Catholic Church and the laws governing banking
back in, well, I don't know how far it goes back.

Are you trying to say something? What IS it? Your jawbone giving you
trouble again?
