Democrats vs The Poor

Post by Newt »

Thomas Sowell is Oozing Privilege Re: Inner City Communities

The Inconvenient Truth about Ghetto Communities’ Social Breakdown



quote:
You cannot take any people, of any color, and exempt them from the requirements of civilization — including work, behavioral standards, personal responsibility, and all the other basic things that the clever intelligentsia disdain — without ruinous consequences to them and to society at large.



i obviously agree 100%. this issue goes well beyond race and the same cultural pathologies in certain black communities that are often highlighted are also seen in many white communities. one such pathology is the lack of stable families and the promotion of substituting family with government.

quote:
One key fact that keeps getting ignored is that the poverty rate among black married couples has been in single digits every year since 1994. Behavior matters and facts matter, more than the prevailing social visions or political empires built on those visions.

quote:
Anyone who is serious about evidence need only compare black communities as they evolved in the first 100 years after slavery with black communities as they evolved in the first 50 years after the explosive growth of the welfare state, beginning in the 1960s. You would be hard-pressed to find as many ghetto riots prior to the 1960s as we have seen just in the past year, much less in the 50 years since a wave of such riots swept across the country in 1965.

This is the unassailable fact that gives me total confidence in describing the liberal intelligensia as intentionally duplicitous in their agenda. They refuse to acknowledge that their approach is totally destroying the very community they publicly crow about helping, and denigrating anyone who tries to point out the obvious. It demonstrates they are more interested in advancing some other single-issue concern over the interests of the people who they supposedly are 'trying to help.'

This is destroying the American culture that made us the greatest nation in the history of the world and we are raising generations of children who are being conditioned to think of our heritage as a negative and are dulling their natural incisiveness and substituting some emotion-driven meme of 'what sounds good' for critical thinking.

Say what you may about conservatives - they have no such fatal flaw in their agenda. In fact, conservative policies are far more attuned to a lasting betterment of the welfare-dependent community.

At the current time, there is no more critical problem endangering the long term survival of the American experiment.

When people can get more money and benefits by being single they will not marry but will join together but not record it. Showing you are single with children brings even more money and free benefits for all. Can't get a legal job that will nearly pay as much so can't afford to work.

This reminds me of slavery days here in America when then and now, folks jumped over the broom and its not just Blacks doing it

Slavery was bad in many ways, but, the slaves had a house to live in, wood heat, plenty of food, free clothes, medical, and a job to go to where doing it well brought prestige and a hierarchy move up same as working mans unions did in the early 1900's.

Compare that to today.

When you have a goverment that conditioned people to the fact that more children equals more money guess what type outcome you will get. You get unwanted children for money.Every social program is over whelmed by people taking advantage of the system taking away from those who truly need it. The dems know control equals dependance and votes.

Not only that Blumouse, but you can't turn on the TV without another Charity begging for money. If "Care" would end poverty in Africa, then where has the money been going for the last fifty years? The nation of self reliant individuals just a generation ago has turned into a nation of disabled beggars.
I sincerely feel sorry for my Grandchildren. This house of cards can't stand another couple of decades without severe consequences.

I would like to express my admiration for the Church in South Carolina who expressed forgiveness after the tragic event last week. They nipped the riots before they started so Sharpton and the race baiters had no traction.

Now its the National Progressives who are not letting a tragedy go to waste. They are milking every concession they can get.

Newt, I live just outside of Charleston and can say that the people here no matter what color have no use for the likes of Sharpton,jesse and the likes of the race hustlers. A couple month ago when the cop shot the guy down in charleston the people of Charleston told sharpton he was not weclome to come here or bring his hate and race baiting. The problem with this country now is when our leaders divide the country with there dumb crap the uneducated take the bait. I am proud that the people of Charleston see charactor before color and if the clowns in washington and the race baitors will pay attention they might learn how to act.

Yep when the federal government is led by race baiters, dividers, finger pointers, blame shifters, racists, biggots and so on this is what you have. The poeple who voted for this administration especially the second time should hang their heads in shame.

Causing Republican,Racist ,Police to think it is the Right thing to do ,To Just Murder Young Black Men in the Streets.And others to just go into anywhere and Kill Black People.

Alabama John
Until today I had A Lot of respect for your comments ,although I Rarely agreed with you..

But
After that Remark about Slavery,,
I Really don't know what to think ,,I am in shock,,And it takes A Lot for A Republican to Shock me.
Just the Mind Set it took to Say that ,Is Pure EVIL.

That said
I do agree with the First Paragraph,,of your post.

If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered

Pinemooch your stupidity knows no bounds and you prove it with every post. Your so dumb you are still running around in your hoody saying hands up don't shoot. You without a doubt will vote for the old lying hag clinton who is running across the country dividing america with the same crap obabbler and his hoard of idiots have done for six years. You have proved that you are a true liberal idiot that will blame others for what your hero's have created, no jobs, 80 million on food stamps, the worst race relation in history,rich against the poor and you have proven you will except a lie before you seek the true. I guess being a clown makes you special in your own simple mind. One last thing clown your consistent belittleing the police in this country showes you are a coward to face the truth.
