Why are they in ghettos?Wrong.No, there’s something more. Every opportunity they get, they fail.Again, they couldn’t prosper when the white folk left. Why would they if they got money now11. One more example of how disingenuous the argument for reparations is.
“Reparations demonstrably would be effective if an improved position for blacks is associated with sharp and enduring reductions in racial disparities, particularly economic disparities like racial wealth inequality, and corresponding sharp and enduring improvements in black well-being.”
Focus on the word ‘enduring.’
Why would handing a huge check over to a person who hasn’t managed to progress financially, and how would same make that person permanently....enduringly.... financially secure?
Of course it wouldn’t. The same things would happen to the government largesse that happened to any other money they had before.
“…. by the end of the first year, some people will have more than others. Guaranteed. Some people, you see, will be careful with what they have. Others won’t. Some people will gamble, others will save. Some will spend lavishly, others will be frugal.
Besides that, some people simply have more of the kind of wealth that can’t be redistributed. Intelligence; education; ambition. Drive, as opposed to: aw, we’re gonna get what we’re gonna get anyway, so let’s just stay on the couch and watch TV. Some people will put a little giddy-up in their get-alongs, and will find ways to improve their own lives.
Some of that will be “unfair,” because some people have more and better resources to tap. Intelligence; talent; family. Even accounting for such differences, though: some people will turn what they have into more, while others will not. Therefore, by the end of the very first year (not to mention the first five or ten) “haves” and “have-nots” will appear.” What if we just gave everybody the same amount of wealth? | John Hawkins' Right Wing News
Clearly, the reparations thing has some hidden agenda behind it.
Reparations…..meaningless. It is values, upbringing, character that makes the difference.
I don't attribute it to skin color, but to Leftist policies.
Read the books "Color of Law" and "American Apartheid" instead of listening to Rush Limbaugh and you'll learn why. The root cause of the problems blacks face is white racism.
I read scores of books written by black sociologists and -----non-sociologists. I also read some stuff written
by developmental psychologists on GENERAL ISSUES.
My conclusion is that black child rearing (which includes family structure) is------kinda dysfunctional for both males and females for USA SOCIETY. Indian child rearing (that is indian from India) is a lot different from STANDARD ozzie and harriet childrearing----but somehow it leads to educational and economic success
