In all seriousness, the nuclear family is the key to building generational wealth unless you are just one of those people who gets lucky and hits it big with a great idea.

For most people, the path to wealth and increased social status is by sharing the load. Two adults living in the same bed doesn't increase costs of living very much, but it allows for a second income or for one parent to stay home and raise children. Two incomes allows for faster wealth building, while a stay-at-home parent allows for children to be raised properly and taught how to live in this world and be successful.

Even if one parent stays at home, their working life extends on either side of the years they spend raising their family and once the kids are out of the home, you pick up a second income and the wealth generation speeds up.

Now you have well adapted children, productive and intelligent in their own right, along with parents who have assets that they can leave to their children to help them on their way in the world.

This is how families move up and get wealthy, but it all starts with being a family.

You will never find a single mother and her three kids by three different men who are now absent improving their station in life. It's a one in a million story when that happens. Instead, that family languishes in poverty forever and perpetuates the cycle.

And the Democrats intentionally keep that going. When people achieve success on their own merits, they are far more likely to be conservative because they want to keep the fruits of that success. Democrats can't have that. Without a permanent dependent underclass, they can't win elections, so they do everything they can to appear to be working for black people while actually doing things that keep them in poverty.

Democrats are easily the most destructive force facing the black community, and really America as a whole

Poverty is the biggest danger to Black people. When was the last time you heard of Beyonce robbing a liquor store? When you can properly elucidate the underlying causes of why black people are poorer than white people, you'll have your answer.

The Democrat party does little for the Black community but pander to them for votes. They have no interest in lifting them higher but are content to leave many of them right where they are, dependent on the Gov. Talk about Quid Pro Quo. You vote for us and we will keep the welfare flowing.. That is harsh but it is true.





Another black person is also a big danger. When I worked in a city that had a majority of black people in it. I saw how they victimized each other by stealing, hurting, trashing, drug dealing, gang issues, destroying and taking advantage of their neighbors in any way possible. How many white neighborhoods require bars on the windows of the homes? It is not white people creeping into the black hood to steal. We speak of racism and always think it is a white on black issue but racism is alive and well in the black community and they can be vicious to each other.





Black on black crime is terrible, the gang incited shootings/murders in those Democrat run cities are tragic yet the elected leaders do nothing. What mom or dad wants their kid to grow up ducking bullets yet nothing gets done.


Trump was trying to help but what did Obama do to help people from his Chicago?
That is the elephant in the room that black people do not want to address. How many young blacks are killed by other blacks each week, and we never see any riots or protests. It is so easy for them to blame someone else for their problems, but the issues like women having baby after baby to multiple fathers, drugs being sold like candy, and young men carrying guns and using them, are issues they should really be trying to fix.

If they were showing some progress in fixing those issues, then a lot of the ones they blame us for would not exist.

It doesn't matter how you order it.

Folks are voting correctly for options 2 and 4, but imo, 4 wouldn't even exist if not for 2.

Black Americans that get out from under the Thumb that metes out crumbs for them and sell them their measly Victimhooded Hope are none other than the democrat party.

Sorry for being so redundant and obvious and factual and boring. But if it touches just one Black American voter, that will make it all worth it.

God Bless and Happy Voting!

Almost 30 years ago and virtually nothing has changed and the statement holds just as true today for most blacks.
