The world we live in is very much like a home where an 800 pound invalid lives upstairs, and the solution everyone proposes is that we not talk about that person. Nobody says to stop feeding that person, stop enabling that person. No, the solution is to ignore the problem and shout down and bully anyone who says that that person could not maintain that weight unless fed far too much food each and every day.
I favor everything that could help poor blacks. I favor Charter Schools, which have been proven to help educational achievement. I support throwing out the trouble makers who make it impossible for the kids who are trying to do the right thing to learn. I support vocational training, and Enterprise Zones.
I support legalizing most drugs so that kids don’t start the rotating door to the prison system early, and I would support releasing most people who are in jail solely on drug related charges.
And I support NOT legalizing 15 million new competitors for existing jobs.
But the core problem is that Chinese can come here not speaking a word of English, and within a generation or two be graduating kids out of Harvard. Yes, the cultural bias is likely in favor of assuming the Asians work harder, but that is because that is what we SEE.
The political Left needs to ask itself if blacks actually are inferior. If they are, then their solutions are in fact the only solution. But if not, then what is needed is a focus on family, personal responsibility, education, and the creation of jobs.
I am very passionate about this subject, for the simple reason that I can see the suffering is real, and that NOTHING these jackasses are proposing will do ANYTHING.
Black poverty has gone up considerably under Obama for the simple reason that his economic policies are shit, and the blacks get hurt first and worst in bad economic times.
The rich have gotten much richer because Democrats have created a system to make their contributors very wealthy on the gravy train of the American government. Wall Street WROTE the “Wall Street Reform Bill” for which Obama was praised. Why? It HELPS the megabanks and hurts their competition.
People need to wake the fuck up, and see with their own eyes. Everywhere you look, someone is lying to you, and most people are too stupid to see it.
