Things that really have proven out with all the Great Society programs; like higher test scores/graduation rates, fewer unwed mothers, less abortion, reduced crime in race specific minority neighborhoods, fewer families on welfare, less poverty. Were those not the goals?<br /><br />And how has it worked out? Well, we saw how that worked out when generations of minorities sat on their rooftops during a hurricane and expected the federal government to take care of them. We saw the looting, the gangs in the streets in the aftermath of the hurricane, and the demand that the taxpayer pay them for the things that Mother Nature took from them. <br /><br />The Progressive left basically instituted a policy of giving a teenager the keys to the car, and the liquor cabinet, and wondering why he had an accident while driving drunk. <br /><br />But all this dependency had done one thing, something that FDR knew well; with dependency comes a guaranteed vote, for people will never vote for the guy who vows to take their free ride away, only for the guy who promises to upgrade their ride.retire05https://www.blogger.com/profile/04192090871824415437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-71791208928270160202010-11-28T09:27:58.238-05:002010-11-28T09:27:58.238-05:00Who cares what Cornel West thinks?Who cares what Cornel West thinks?Bandithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15983364311039378859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-78450052186751145552010-11-28T08:33:52.520-05:002010-11-28T08:33:52.520-05:00His policies were racist in effect and consequence...<i>His policies were racist in effect and consequence and especially classist in terms of generating misery among poor and working people, disproportionately black and brown.</i><br /><br />A pretty good description of Re-, er, Progressive dependency-producing social policies, starting with the Great Society welfare state that perpetuated poverty among people of color across generations.Ritchie The Riveterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04142451531127717113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-7991147148578030932010-11-28T08:23:27.037-05:002010-11-28T08:23:27.037-05:00If racism equates to the amount of misery and marg...If racism equates to the amount of misery and marginalization inflicted on a group by an administration's actions then Obama is the most racist president in my lifetime, except for maybe Carter.jkmackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16350941958278768531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-50483222919904437832010-11-28T08:04:57.491-05:002010-11-28T08:04:57.491-05:00He talks about the "interests of black Americ...He talks about the "interests of black Americans" as if they all have the same interests.
