"My comment might be considered racist if I said "only" blacks."Because it's not true and it's lumping blacks in a certain light formed only by your own prejudices. It may be true that some do. But the statement as you posted it is not true as there are certainly blacks who get nothing from Democrats yet still vote Democrat. I'm white. Democrats don't give me anything personally. But I still vote Democrat because I believe they do a better job at running the country than Republicans. I believe they provide a more level playing field to all people regardless of race, color, religion, creed, or sexual preferences. Many blacks likely vote Democrat for those and similar reasons. You're a racist. And to racists, blacks vote Democrat because they get things."blacks vote Democrat because Democrats give them things."Why don't you try to keep up? Here is your quote:
And you are correct, blacks vote Democrat because Democrats give them things. Utterly disgusting way to get votes, but that's what they do. it also helps Democrats to keep the country divided in so many ways.
If every American paid 10% of their income to income tax, the wealthy would still be paying more because they make more. The real benefit however is that it would change the attitudes of those who get things "Free" today because it would no longer be free. They would be paying for all these social goodies instead of the wealthy.

What's racist about it?
Sorry, but it's the truth. Even Johnson realized that when he said he'd have blacks voting Democrat for the next two centuries as he crafted social programs.
My comment might be considered racist if I said "only" blacks. But I didn't say that. I said that the Democrats buy the black vote through programs. It doesn't mean that others didn't fall into the same socialist trap as blacks.
Should I be concerned about Medicare? I'm not on Medicare yet. But my father is. Should I be concerned about school debt? I'm long out of school, but my nephew and niece are still working to pay off their college loans and they are in their early 30's. Should I be concerned about SS disability? I'm not on disability, but one of my tenants is.
You don't have to be on social programs to support them. You may be supportive of them on behalf of your family, friends or neighbors.
Your comment was racist because not all blacks behave the way you think they do.
Really? I don't recall using the phrase "all blacks" either.
