It's election year! The democrats will use the race card to attack the current president since Trump is
polling very well with black voters.


Two recent and highly reputable polls have registered an extraordinarily high “favorability” rating for Trump among black voters – about 34-35 percent, far exceeding the 8 percent of the black electorate that actually voted for Trump in 2016. That’s a huge jump from the 9 percent favorability rating among African Americans he earned in 2018 and the 13 percent he achieved earlier this year.

Of course, a 35 percent favorability rating may not translate into 35 percent support in the 2020 election, but it doesn’t have to. Even a substantial gain to double-digit support could provide the margin of difference in key swing states, such as Pennsylvania and Michigan, sealing Trump’s reelection.

Why Trump's Gains With Black Voters Could Swing The 2020 Election

If Biden wins, America's demise will come much sooner than 20 years from now. He is absolutely clueless and they will be voting for the VP...not him.
 
There is this little thing that liberals never want to talk about. It's not hard. It just takes determination, strong will. It's called......personal responsibility! That alone keeps people from having babies, keeps them from having kids where the daddy ran off, keeps them from having kids they can't afford, MAKES them get an education so they don't have t work at Wendys'

But, we can't have THAT now, can we?

So you agree that if we stopped talking about hunger, everyone would have food to eat?
 
Where do you pt the drug addled homeless people? In government housing paid for by YOU that they would wreck with no consequences?

OH WAIT!! We already have "projects" that they wreck. My bad. Shoulda thought of that before I posted. Maybe we could get them to fix it? Nah. Taxpayers will.

Unemployment compensation for simply being unemployed in our at-will employment States is an automatic form of stabilization of our economy. The right wing alleges to hate big government yet avoid actually solving simple economic problems that are detrimental to the Poor under our form of Capitalism.

Who is hungry? Let me know. I don't want reports from some WHO that some kids miss breakfast. I want kids who are truly hungry.

Next question. Why should I pay for your kids?

Homeless people don't work. What will unemployment compensation do for them?

Are u saying all homeless are drug addled?

That the drug addled should be euthanized...?

That's not conservativism...it's evil

I don't entirely disagree but HERE is the problem

Not all humans are capable of being self sufficient, for a plethora of reasons. Yet they obviously continue to be human, the to have needs and etc...

It goes back to education and more importantly to how ppl are raised. If a person is constantly given the message from parents, for example, that he is worthless, can't do anything right...that person will act out that sense of worthlessness....It is sad but true. Psychology is often neglected in these s

They should be imprisoned if they are chronic drug users and sleeping on sidewalks....yes. They are a societal burden.

I agree with what you are saying and to correct this problem would take a complete change in society that cannot be done today. The biggest reason is that we have these government run schools ad unionized teachers who can't be fired and who vote solidly Democrat. They WANT things to stay the same. We should have mandatory vouchers but every time that is pushed, the unions hoot and howl. So, we are lost as a society ow and public schools are THE reason for the riots and discontent today. They have put out ignorant humans who are taught we are bad, racist and capitalism is evil and people are poor because some are rich.

To prove what I am saying, you just watch the responses to this post.
 
Racism sells newspapers.

And it distracts liberals away from bigger problems in liberal enclaves that they have utterly failed to solve.

Human beings are human beings before they are anything else...like "burden"

Why don't we HELP them...(no hand outs but definitely ahand up)
Instead of kicking them when they are down..which is exactly what society is doing...
 
Your evidence of this? Not some vague stuff. Actual hard evidence that racism affects MILLIONS of people.

EZp7obVWAAEw47O.webp

Every minority group in America overwhelmingly believes that it is a problem. But please tell us how it's not actually an issue.
 
It's all about racism...

The last option should read

Because they want Blacks to keep voting for them (keep them on the plantation)

because racism is a clear and obvious evil behavior
 
If you want to selectively ignore all the evidence to the contrary, sure.

Who's ignoring? I'm just sick of the one topic msm

I'm just sick of how the Dems and their puppets in the msm are using racism to win an election. Then once elected they do nothing for blacks.. Worse, they spend time in Congress trying to get rid of one of the few people who DOES want to equalize things btwn the races...

What has the Dem party done for blacks beyond lip service?

Answer

Kept them dependent on government

So I'm clear, you believe is someone works for perhaps a few months as a carpenter and becomes unemployed, he should get unemployment compensation for life?

There is no unemployment under True capitalism only underpayment. Requiring a work ethic lowers the wage rate for Labor. We need wages to outpace inflation.

Please let us all know the details of your plan and how it would be implemented. I am assuming you've thought this through and have it all on paper as to how you would force a private employer to pay employees who are marginal a wage that outpaces inflation?

Your plan is interesting and I'm sure it wouldn't have any effect whatsoever on the inflation rate as the guy who employs say, 25 people, wouldn't raise his prices because he pays higher wages. He would just reduce his profit and sell his house to pay the higher wages? Maybe I have your PLAN all wrong, so I think introducing it to the board here so we can all examine it and hash it over would be a great boon to society. You seem to have discovered a workable plan that no one has thought of before now, and we are all ears.

Automatic stabilization; it really is that simple. And, wages merely need outpace inflation.

The African American vote is there for the GOP to earn. Go for it!!
