I didn't say the liberal policies were "30 years ago"...I said "30 years of CRUSHING liberal policies". Those policies were from the late 50's through the 1980's. And if you don't know what those policies I speak of...then you are either grossly uninformed or choose to ignore them as a clear cause and effect that will take many more years to escape from.
And I showed you the chart where "crushing liberal policies" reduced the poverty rate for African Americans from 60% in 1960 to 20% in 1999.
Your argument would make sense if there was a vibrant black middle class before those policies were put into place. But the fact is, black folks lived in abject misery before those policies happened. Today, they still aren't where white people are, because Racism, but not to worry, the Republicans have a solution to that.
They are going to make everyone but the 1% poor and miserable.... They've been working on that since Ronnie Ray-gun.
No. Just no.
It isn't the Republicans that are crushing the middle class. It is corporatism. And corporatism is embraced by BOTH parties equally.
Obama has been the greatest friend to Wall Street than perhaps any President in US history. Right now Joe...right now...the Fed and this administration are giving serious thought to NEGATIVE interest rates....which gives the wealthiest corporations and central banks not only free access to $Billions of our tax dollars....but actually pays THEM to borrow the free money. THis is not Republican.
And BTW - Hillary Clinton is an elitist/corporatist to the core.
