Social Capital

Everyone has missed the point of what social capital is to the community you live in. Like it or not, not everyone has highlights in their social, school, or religion that enables them to capitalize on it. At the least, social capital is inequality. Those who have the communication, economic, and educational skills necessary to capitalize upon the success of others does not include everyone in America. As we learned about the library, aspects of the Seattle library do not necessary reflect into an environment that is rewarding for all participants. It is a matter of who you know and not what you know ia another aspect of relationships that we have learned. What is missing is how those with capital restrict that access to those who do not. This is done not only from inferior educational institutions, but being employed in low skilled low wage jobs creates a generational pattern that cannot be ignored.
