Do Hispanics and Blacks drag America down?


It seems to me that the overwhelming majority of black and Hispanic (the none white ones) people seem to burden the country rather then contribute to its success. There are some good black and Hispanic people but the majority seem to free load off the rest of the country. Not only that, they tend to be criminal and have a terrible work ethic, at least the blacks do. I honesty think white America needs to stop being such a big wuss and tell the minorities how to behave. Firstly kick the Hispanics out, does America really need another minority adding to the problems caused by native blacks? NO! And blacks need to be reminded being in America is a blessing that should be taken advantage of. Honestly I get so pissed off when I see the success of the Asian community. Criminals blacks need to be forced into labor while in prison. Why not use the over seized prison population to do the jobs illegals claim Americans don't want?


BTW I'm an African American guy.

You are a typical Democrat trying to divide everyone up into races and groups. America has many "contributors" and "takers" from all races. What made this country great is our government gives the "contributors" freedom to pursue their dreams and as a results makes everyone better off even the "takers".

Typical Conservative ploy, dividing the country into 'them' and 'us'.

Nearly 50 percent of black males in Milwaukee lack jobs - The Daily Cardinal

Maybe a better question would be what's dragging Black-Americans and Latinos down?

One big problem Black-Americans have is that their economic condition has been tied or overlly tied to manufacturing work. Those jobs have declined in America increasing Black male unemployment. This high unemployment of Black males has led to fewer Black males being able to get married and sustain families. This Black family instability which is connected to high Black male unemployment is at the root of many of the social problems you find with segments of Black America(drug dealing,high incarceration,gangs etc).

The long term solution isn't more government programs but an increase in Black entreprenurship and other wealth building strategies(investing etc). Black-Americans have too much spending power ($800 billion)to have the types of poverty problems that we have.

Absolutely not!!!

I know many in the (legal) Hispanic and black communities that can work circles around the whites.

I'm an employer, and I'm of the opinion that says, if it weren't for the hispanics, blacks and asians in this country, nothing would ever get done.

BTW, I'm a white guy.

because the poster is African-American (you did notice in his post he said black but then referred to himself as an African-American....I guess he was distancing himself from the criminal, no work ethic having, problem solving blacks) of course. See everyone gets all upset and goes "how dare you" and just when they get ready to type a lengthy rebuttal they realize the poster is African-American and therefore incapable of saying anything remotely racist and go get a sweet tea.

Happy Sunday!
