When will liberals admit their philosophy is a complete failure?

[Levant]

Poverty is driven by many different factors, sometimes having nothing to do with decisions one makes.

What do you mean by “my horror of restrictions”? We have not discussed restrictions, if you are psychic....you need to tune your receiver.

Name a cause of poverty - any cause that you think has nothing to do with the decisions one makes.

Lack of living wage, ridiculously expensive training and college. We did not just get the worst inequality and upward mobility the last 35 years because people just got stupid and lazy. You are a brain washed functional moron. 6 million tech jobs are going begging great job!

Lack of a living wage? Quit working at McDonald's. I have several people working for me without college degrees who make 70 to 80K a year. Self-taught in IT. I make far, far, more than that and I don't have a degree; in fact, I'm a high-school dropout. Making a less-than-living-wage is a personal choice and 100% directly related to the choices a person makes. And the beauty of it is that they can make new choices and change it any time in their life. I was 45 when I switched from electronics to IT full time - and without a degree or formal IT training.

The cost of college? The poor can attend community college for free. But college is not required to make a good living; hard work and confidence is.

Yes, you did get the worst inequality and upward mobility because you were stupid and lazy. LBJ got you hook, line, and sinker, with his Great Society and stupid people thought they could have a great life while not working.. That's stupid and lazy.

Many, many black people are not stupid and are not lazy and the didn't fall for LBJ's (Democratic) bullshit. I have had many black people and others of color working for me that prove it's not race; it's stupid, lazy, people who don't find their way out of poverty. If you're living in poverty (can you have a PC and Internet and be in poverty?) I will gladly help you build a plan that, if you follow it, you'll be making 60K in 3 years and 100K+ in 7 years. No gimmicks, nothing to buy, just hard work and study.

On the other hand, there's oil field work where you can make 100K next year... Well, not now in the middle of the Democratic economy crash, but soon afterwards. You'll just have to go where the work is. Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota, and many other areas, doing pipeline work. I have lots of relatives doing that. But the work is hard, very hard, physical work, long hours, weekends away from home, etc. But the money's there.

Only stupid, lazy, people make minimum wage or anything close to it.

Face it, your ideas have failed.

actually the result of 30 to 40 years of GOP dominance. The endless war on drugs so that blacks gangs are killing each other for who gets to sell drugs to white suburbanites and country people LOL.the greatest inequality and worst upward mobility in our history is just great. Thanks GOP. Only garbage hate propaganda makes this mess possible.

Bullshit. Republicans haven't led San Francisco for decades. Not a single Republican forced anyone to join a black gang or to sell drugs. More personal choices. I can understand that the choice to not join a gang can be difficult because of peer pressure in the Democratic run cities where the gangs rule but there are people all the time who make the right choices and get out. Then the black community calls them Uncle Tom.

Even for those in gangs, there is a way out. Here are plenty of examples of felons who later found success:

I'm going to take that part back. Making low wages is a legitimate choice but it's a choice. When people make that choice wisely, accepting the consequences of the choice, then it is not a stupid or lazy choice. But for those who make the choice and then expect those who worked harder to make up the lifestyle gap and those who make the choice and then whine about it and blame others, then it is a stupid, lazy, choice.

That is the age old divide between conservative and liberal ideology: what is incumbent on the individual vs. what is incumbent on the state. Individual responsibility vs. collective responsibility.

What did and does a society built on “personal responsibility“ and no social programs (social responsibility) look like?

America, stupid. Or is history among all of the other topics you're so completely ignorant of?

When America enacted Welfare, and Social Security, and even Medicare, Communism of the Soviet Union variety was a threat across the globe. By embracing those social programs we took the teeth out of the argument for Communism. If we had ignored those programs, then it is entirely possible, even likely that we would have ended up Communist.

That is also history, or did you ignore that part?

Social programs which denote a Social Democracy, are usually much cheaper, and preferred over the alternative. If we were lucky we could have seen the French Revolution take place here, and perhaps ended up with a very social democracy, instead of Communism, but probably not.

Time change, and any nation that refuses to change with it, will perish into the pages of history.

These States Offer Tuition-Free Community College

17 states offer tuition-free community college programs, which can be especially helpful in getting students into college that may have struggled with affording a four year school.

www.forbes.com

https://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/paying-for-college/articles/2018-02-01/these-states-offer-tuition-free-college-programs

And you're wrong about your talent. What you didn't have was desire to make more than a private school teacher. And that's OK. You got what you wanted out of life. There's nothing wrong with that. If you wanted more money, you'd have found ways to make more and would have made more. But more money isn't always more.. You might have to give up living where you want. Or you might have to give up a lot of time with family while you learn or travel. So making less money can be more. It depends on what you want more of. But everyone (yes, there are some exceptions) gets what they want. Not what they daydream about or not what they whine that they don't have, but what they really want - because if they wanted more they'd do something about getting more - more of whatever it is they want.

All nations will perish into the pages of history. What will always exist is the individual.

It's sad that so many believe that there's some special race of people who have a birthright to rule over others. I don't believe that. I believe in a limited government by the people, of the people, for the people to provide those limited things the people can't do for themselves. Food and cell phones don't fit in that category. People can either do it for themselves or do without.

• Living wage? If you want a living wage, get the skills to earn one. Quit taking jobs intended as spending money for high-school kids.
• Day care? Unless I fucked your wife and made the kid, why should I pay to raise it? You want day care, pay for it. You can't afford it? Keep your dick in your pants.
• Parental leave? Seriously? You want your employer to pay you to NOT work? Or for me to pay you to not work? Kiss my ass.
• Cheap college? We have that. Community college. Get great grades and get scholarships afterwards for the remaining. But, then, the idea that everyone should go to college is ludicrous. Unnecessary.
• Great Infrastructure? We have that. That's a proper role for government.
• Vacations? Really? If everyone gets a vacation then you pay for mine and I pay for yours. We're even. So let's simplify it: you pay for yours and I pay for mine. But that's not what you want. You want me to pay for your luxury vacation while my vacation is a trip to the local lake. If you want a vacation, save for it. That's the most fucking ridiculous idea for socialism I have ever heard.

And the beauty of it is that they can make new choices and change it any time in their life. I was 45 when I switched from electronics to IT full time - and without a degree or formal IT training.

The cost of college? The poor can attend community college for free. But college is not required to make a good living; hard work and confidence is.

Yes, you did get the worst inequality and upward mobility because you were stupid and lazy. LBJ got you hook, line, and sinker, with his Great Society and stupid people thought they could have a great life while not working.. That's stupid and lazy.

Many, many black people are not stupid and are not lazy and the didn't fall for LBJ's (Democratic) bullshit. I have had many black people and others of color working for me that prove it's not race; it's stupid, lazy, people who don't find their way out of poverty. If you're living in poverty (can you have a PC and Internet and be in poverty?) I will gladly help you build a plan that, if you follow it, you'll be making 60K in 3 years and 100K+ in 7 years. No gimmicks, nothing to buy, just hard work and study.

On the other hand, there's oil field work where you can make 100K next year... Well, not now in the middle of the Democratic economy crash, but soon afterwards. You'll just have to go where the work is. Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota, and many other areas, doing pipeline work. I have lots of relatives doing that. But the work is hard, very hard, physical work, long hours, weekends away from home, etc. But the money's there.

Only stupid, lazy, people make minimum wage or anything close to it.

Pure baloney. Of course I am happily retired private school teacher and businessman. I just worry about all the people in the country and I'm a good citizen who checks his facts instead of believing a lot of crap.community colleges haven't been free for a while and they won't be free until Democrats get in. Congratulations on your success. I don't have talent for it it appears LOL I'm 69 years old and just trying to stay alive.

There are YOUR facts and there are "facts". You're an idiot.

Here's a conservative policy better than Social Security and Medicare: Personal Responsibility.

Here's another: Families supporting their own.

Here's another: Communities supporting their own.

Here's another: The Constitution of the United States of America.

That is the age old divide between conservative and liberal ideology: what is incumbent on the individual vs. what is incumbent on the state. Individual responsibility vs. collective responsibility.

What did and does a society built on “personal responsibility“ and no social programs (social responsibility) look like?

America, stupid. Or is history among all of the other topics you're so completely ignorant of?

Aparently I have more knowledge of history than you do since America has a network of social programs and safety nets and has for some time.

I suspect your ignorance is congenital and unfixable given the burden of your extreme ideology.

Moron, you don't even know what history is. Maybe you should try looking it up or is that beyond you're limited mental ability too.

....my goodness, your response is....awesome....for a kindergartner. Why don’t you enlighten us. Tell us how the US is an example of a Land of Personal Responsibility, with none of those dumb liberal safetynets. I really want about it since it certainly isn’t now and your entire life has been surrounded by those safety nets.

I've spent my life being responsible for myself and contributing to society instead of leeching off of it like assholes such as yourself.
Believe me, if it were up to me, you'd stave to death and not be allowed to breed as nature intended.

Poverty is driven by many different factors, sometimes having nothing to do with decisions one makes.

What do you mean by “my horror of restrictions”? We have not discussed restrictions, if you are psychic....you need to tune your receiver.

Name a cause of poverty - any cause that you think has nothing to do with the decisions one makes.

Catastrophic illness.
Lack of jobs in an area, for example when industries closed up and moved overseas, decimating the towns that relied on them — the so called rust belt, or in my state, the mines. Sure they can other jobs, but none pay near the jobs they lost.
Skyrocketing housing costs in areas where work is available.
Lack of education and fewer opportunities for good jobs without it.
Lack of transportation.
