About taxes, how about just get a tax software? That should hold a puppy's hand through the whole process. by the way, do you really want to be percieved as a puppy on this blog?

I haven't much to say about this "model minority" business. Obviously it's a patronizing stereotype and a back-handed compliment. To answer the argument. It's possible that the racism faced by Asians and blacks are different in quality. There are already built-in expectations that the Asian student is "smart but weak" while black student are "atheletic but dumb," and such expectation may leads to different performances among the races. I've yet to see any Asian community leader referring to us as "model minority," if I do, I would be majorly pissed.
