Except for some politicians, most NFL/NBA players, and rap artists in general, much of the black race in America are still enslaved, by their own choice. FDR's Social Security Act (Welfare) and LBJ's 'Great Society' only enable people to remain in poverty. Temporary Assistance is not temporary when that assistance continues from generation to generation.

If one is not motivated to work for a living and improve one's place in society, then a slave they remain.

The right and the left know enough about our social media generation to play on emotions for everything.

EVERYTHING.

It's all so nonsensical now.

Not everybody has the same opportunities. Sometimes it's not that easy to work and improve one's place in society. Black people aren't the only recipients of welfare either. Not by a long shot.

They do this every election in hopes of bring out the Black Vote for themselves.
At some point - Blacks are going to work out that they have been scammed/conned for decades.
A few wake up every election.

It's more Jussie Smollett. It rarely exists so they have to create it with white face, red hats and nooses at 2am on frigid nights in the middle Chicago.

The demand exceeds the supply.

Who said it had to be easy? It certainly wasn't easy for me to work my whole life to buy a home, and several vehicles over the years. But, work, I did.

Didn't say they were. But, a majority, they are.

Here in Waco, we have the town proper, then we have East Waco, which is black Waco. And South Waco, which is mostly brown Waco. East Waco and South Waco have always been poverty stricken. There are no well-to-do sections in those parts of town. Why is it that?

Well, the Democrats were the party of slavery and Jim Crow.

Wasn't easy for me either, but I'm not presumptuous enough to think that everyone has the same opportunities. Hard is one thing. Some people have it damn near impossible.
