It's shocking any african americans vote dimocrat. You'd think they'd be tripping over themselves to get to the gop.
Why?
He's either being sarcastic or stupid.
The former. It's a pretty failed thread.
I don't know if I'd say blacks were "better off" back then either. Pot was around, but narcotics were not cheap or plentiful. Perhaps some blacks were better off in a socioecon sense. Of course all unskilled labor was better off. Still, Moynihan was obviouskt correct in his concern of what welfare requirements for single family homes would do to black males being responsible for their kids. If I'm a black lawyer or doctor, I wouldn't be agreeing with the "better off" comment though.
