Ben Carson: We need a holistic approach to HUD

[shockedcanadian]

I'm going to say as a very poor kid who was raised in socialist Canada in Government Housing, when Carson talks about this he is absolutely accurate. Spend the three minutes to hear him talk about this, he is bang on and of all the candidates he always understood this best, Trump saw that in him it seems.

The socialist/quasi-communist strategy to the poor is to give you bread crumbs that sustain you and keep you dependent on the state. While quietly allowing the security apparatus and covert police to operate without accountability and interfere as needed. This ensures you will rarely if ever succeed while they will have an open path to success, even at the cost of the best and brightest not meeting their potential. Communism to me is evil.

This extends broadly across the system. There's a popular saying in Canada, "the police like them young and they like them poor". A system of exploitation from government at all levels, often covert all while promoting the fallacy that they are being "compassionate". Yes, many in social work and such enter their field to help, but they don't realize they hinder. They destroy hope, self sufficiency, ambition, opportunity and ones freedoms to use their God given talents to their maximum.

Sleepy Ben Carson is an experienced problem-solver. that's what we need in government. the only downside to him is his low energy.

Walk back to the center of the democrat plantation where you came from.....

 

[Moonglow]

How much more do we need to do for the blacks to get them to learn algebra?

 

[yiostheoy]

Dumbazz Carson is not good for anything in government except as Surgeon General.

Why does he NOT want that job?

He is worthless at HUD.

 

[basquebromance]

Ben Carson will go down in history as the greatest cabinet secretary in the history of the world.

I wish I could have free housing, free food, free clothing, so I could be disadvantaged...

Here is what I find most interesting.
"Progressives" complain that Ben Carson has no "Housing" experience and yet the entire dept is trashed.
One would THINK that a "Progressive" would be open to something "new" being tried...but they are not.
"Progressives" at on record as anting to continue the same things that have always failed over and over and over.
Interesting.

If Ben has ideas to make it better, he's a progressive....Try using a dictionary...

Best way to know what's wrong with Public Housing is live in it for a long time.
Ben Carson has.

Ben Carson: We need a holistic approach to HUD

There were some hopeful signs in his comments, such as getting on the ground, and working harder to leverage the experience of long time HUD employees. And you don't often hear traditional government bureaucrats willing to think holistically - they're usually in a bubble and short-sighted.

Just looking for some silver linings here.

The term Progressive is a misnomer. They don't work for progress. They only claim to.
