Oh, I don't think so. You are dead wrong if you think the FOP and PBA are largely republican, not in the blue states and big cities. To the contrary, most big city unions are heavily democrat and their political donations reflect that. Most big cities have been run by democrats for decades and the public unions including the police unions contribute bigly to their campaigns in return for laws and union contracts that pretty much make it impossible to fire a bad cop or teacher. It wasn't the GOP that anything to do with that, it was you guys.
The FOP and PBA endorsed Trump last election. You guys now own them and their role in blocking police reform. Oh, yeah, and Trump's role in blocking police reform.
The problem is the world doesn't work like that. Jobs are not good we can just dish out. Now if we could get black people into good schools and they didn't take dumbshit like black studies and did things like Sceince, math, IT, they could get good jobs. School Choice is a great way to do that, but the dems block it because the unions(and dems) would lose control and couldn't force black studies and other bullshit on them, so they strongly oppose it and it holds blacks down.
School choice is a dumb idea, and I say that as someone who was a product of the Catholic Schools. If School Choice existed when I was growing up, my Dad would have INSISTED on his vouchers for his five kids, which means that much less money for the general pool.
School choice will just mean the private schools will collect their government checks and keep taking the kids they want.. It won't help the kid with disciplinary problems, or the kid with the learning disability, or the kid who speaks English as a second language because the private schools won't touch them.
As far as giving everyone a job... there's more than enough wealth do to that, we just refuse to do it. We let the Elon Musks and the Jeff Bezos have half the wealth in this country, leave the urban poor without opportunities, and then wonder why they turn to crime.
Oh, by the way, as much as you like to think that the universities are cranking out "Black Studies" degrees, the reality is, most kids going to college major in something useful.
