I would say what's wrong with the article starts with this statement: Statistics are systematically compiled data, and cannot be stacked against anyone, as they are merely descriptive. To say that the 'statistics are against you' is not only wrong, but also fatalistic. What's against many people is not being able to recognize their strengths and weaknesses so that they might find a career that they are suited for and that makes them happy.So many things wrong with this article, starting with picking the least sympathetic people I can imagine....
Years passed before John realized just how much the economic statistics were stacked against him, in a way they never were against his father.
