So what law in the great society was designed to trap Blacks in poverty? Where is your evidence of intent?
Johnson a Dixiecrat came up with an idea to end poverty. With that goal in mind, Johnson initiated the largest expansion of government, initiated new policies and programs, and named the package ‘The Great Society’.
What effect has the welfare state brought on our population?
Economics 101= you get more of what you subsidize.
When you subsidize joblessness you get more of it, 1964 80.6% of men over 20 were employed. 2014 67.6% are employed.
When you subsidize single-parent homes you get more of it. 1965 7.7% births belonging to unmarried women, 2014 40%. Note the population in 1965 was 194M and today 331M.
What happened to the fathers.
When you subsidize undesirable behavior you will get more undesirable behavior. The generous welfare system has allowed women in effect to marry the government. And this makes it easy for men to abandon their traditional moral and financial responsibilities.
The welfare state penalizes marriage.
A single mother with 2 children who earn 15K would receive approx 5.2K in food stamps. Now if she marries a man who also earns 15K she loses her food stamps. Section 8 housing subsidy averages around 11K per year, if she is unemployed. If she marries a man earning 20K per year she loses half of her section 8. The government runs over 80 means-tested programs that provide cash, food, housing, medical care, and social services to poor and low-income individuals and each program contains a marriage penalty. Low-income families are usually enrolled in several programs, so marriage penalties from multiple programs add up. And most times far past what the man would bring into the family. The welfare system makes it irrational for low-income couples to marry. And since there is no 'ring on it, it makes it easy for couples to separate when trouble arises.
How badly did the welfare system destabilize the black family? A child being raised in slavery was more likely to be raised under the same roof by his biological mother and father than today.
And here is the kicker. Johnson’s intention was not to lift anyone out of poverty but to give them enough to survive, keep them dependent on the government, in order to get votes.
The point is not that it creates black hardships the point is that it exists. You already admitted that racism exists. I have pointed out how individuals use the system to promote their racist ideals.
I don't doubt that there are individuals who use the system to promote racist ideas. But that is not systemic racism. Test your logic.
If there being racist individuals in a system, and they exploited that system to promote their racist worldview equates to systematic racism.
Then there being homosexual individuals in a system, and they exploited that system to promote their homosexual worldview equates to systemic pro-homosexuality.
Either both make sense or none.
You twisting the discussion from the evidence of systemic racism to evidence of hardship caused by systemic racism. Two different things.
You will still have to show that the evidence of hardship is the direct result of systemic racism.
Lol, a longer prison sentence is the effect of systemic racism but it is not evidence of systemic racism?
No. A longer prison sentence is the effect, you have to prove the cause, = the cause and how it brought about an unjust prison sentence is the evidence. For example, same crime, same points, same judge, same court. Let's say one defendant gets 50% more time than another. Why? In most cases and I would say 99% were pleaded out. When one pleads out one gets a reduced sentence. Now if one wants to go to trial it becomes a roll of the dice for the full amount.
But I got a better idea. If you don't want to do the time, don't do the crime. Why are they in jail- because they committed a crime.
There is no similarity in your analogy....people know exactly who racially profiled them when they are profiled.
The person who is racially profiled by another already has the evidence based on the actions of the one doing the profiling. Cellphone video and audio have worked wonders for people who would not have been believed in those situations.
Your example has nothing to do with systemic racism it has to do with the killing.
Wow. It was a simple logical analysis of your reasoning. It has no impact on your racist narrative.
I don't know that Democrats were not whites, are you for real? You seem to be saying that Democrats were black in 1964
Do you really think that the hardships caused by the GS only happened in 1964? News flash = the hardships continue to this day. And the Democratic party which is had a black president, and now a black vice president, and multiple black members does not own up to their past racist policies and does nothing to correct it.
Both parties are multi-racial. The majority of both parties are whites
Sorry, the nightmare from slavery to Jim Crow to the Great Society was promoted and defended by Democrats, not Republicans.
Here is the difference between you and me. I believe that the one who commits the offense should carry the guilt. Your intention seems to be more geared to placing the guilt on whites. That is racist.
So you believe both parties want control
Read again. There is a difference. Republicans want minimal control. To have a functioning government there has to be some control. The Democrats want total control. Look at the difference by state. California [D} return the mask mandate. Florida refuses to return. Biden [D} says that children under 12 must wear a mask in school. Desantis [R] will penalize any school district that attempts to enforce a mask mandate. Republicans are for freedom and liberty, Democrats are for control.
as opposed to what? Two parents in a home mean one could be looking for a job while the other looks after the kids as oppose to a single parent who has to look after the kids and look for a job. Why are you explaining only to the wife? Both are unemployed one could be looking for a job while the other looks after the kids...in a single parent situation who looks after the kids when the single parent is looking for a job?
You are not making any sense...you want both parents at home while the government supports them?
Such a narrow understanding of the strength of a family unit. Why is it important to keep the family unit together?
For example, children from single-parent homes are:
More than twice as likely to be arrested for a juvenile crime. Twice as likely to be treated for emotional and behavioral problems. Roughly twice as likely to be suspended or expelled from school, and a third more likely to drop out before completing high school. It takes a man to make a man. Mothers cannot make men.
Typical race hustling. How many blacks got lynched since 1965? Zero.
Not once did I say I support it. I am just pointing out to you that the reason for your assumed discrimination is actually white profiteering.
Now that we have identified systemic racism at Harvard what are you going to do about it? Or are you only interested in white-on-black racism?
You missed the point ...the black only seems to benefit... Orientals are used the same way they are given scholarships for their technical skills for white profiteering
And here you are justifying it.
I suppose when all white people on the bus agree that black people must sit at the back
This is a typical race hustle move. Attempt to prove that systemic racism exists today by showing events that happened 66 years ago as evidence of today's racism.
BTW "when all white people" is racist.
Your worldview is racist. You continually blame one race for another race's problems. Why is it always the 'white person'?
When black people say certain rules or regulations make voting difficult for them, white people say it does not make voting difficult you have to accept it. White people make the rules and black people must abide by them...You should ask how many black people had input in the making of the rules that affect their ability to vote?
Am I suppose to take your word for it? Notice this is the third time around and you have yet to show any rule, from any state, that makes voting for blacks difficult. Do you know of any such rule or are you parroting what you hear? BTW I have read Ga and Tx and found no such thing. What I did notice was that voting was made easier and cheating harder. Are you for fair elections or cheating?
