If the GOP is so good at ending poverty, then explain Appalachia. Or even Red States.

[Sun Devil 92]

Because that's worked so well in Appalachia?

Show us your analysis.

Please. You brought it up...show us.

Show us you know anything about finance.
Show us you know anything about poverty and it's causes.
Show us you know anything about science or math.

All you do is post bullshit and you can't stand behind it all.

I thought you “don’t care” so why are you asking for analysis after dodging the topic for 4 posts while trying to turn it into a partisan attack thread?

It’s legit to look at the historical cause and effect of policies to analyze their effectiveness. It is done all the time with gun laws in Chicago, why shouldn’t it be done for Appalachia?

Because the thread was started as a partisan attack thread?

The OP poses a perfectly valid question. Yes the poster has a political bias, but the appropriate response would be to explain why GOP policies did not contribute to poverty in Appalachia. Ya know make an intelligent counter argument to his point. Why don’t you just do that?

We know why Republican policies are the cause of poverty.

It's the anti education. That's a huge part.

Another part is the racism. People don't like to invest in Confederate communities.

Please. How is anti education a huge part.

What education are you talking about ?

High School ?

Can you, for once in your sorry sad life, be clear ?

Try reading this Rdean... and stop you incoherent ramblings about the GOP.

Rderp will post another thread , from Wrigley Ville it's obvious the tard never been anywhere ..

He didn't even know about the cookie factory on division street


Demolition Begins on Former Art Deco Salerno Cookie Factory


An Art Deco-era factory that has long anchored a stretch of Division Street in Humboldt Park is currently being demolished. According to preservationists, the building that spans from 4422 to 4500 West Division Street was listed on the city's 90 day demolition delay list, but was released before that period had been reached. The sprawling factory was once home to the Salerno Butter Cookie company, and similar to the old Wrigley Gum Factory and the Brach Candy Factory which have also been demolished in the last couple of years, helped make Chicago the "Candy Capital of the World." In a joint statement, Preservation Chicago's Ward Miller and Andrew Schneider reveal that preservationists were not made aware of the situation until it was too late.

4500 on West Division????

You know how far away that is?

So once again you are telling us you never drove a car? See I experienced more things in life then you never had. I worked on division street for like 6 months all the way from wheeling Illinois, it was like a war zone..when we had that one blizzard it took me 6 hours to get to work driving a Ford mustang..


The damn hardware store had bullet proof glass, so did KFC..

We had to lock up the ladder to the building to go up to the roof , otherwise blacks would steal it

I remember that winter , I got bored hoped on the snow blower and was cleaning everyone's side walk even behind my company in the residential area..


I remember driving to work on Halloween kids before had great costumes, kids on division street were wearing garbage bags..


Like I said rderp you don't know crap about the country even where you live..i do.

I never drove a car? Then why do I send out $300.17 every month?

You're weird. The way you flitter and twitter from one non connected talking point to another.

Do you make these up or are there "voices" giving you directions?
Do they tell you to do, uh, ............."things"?

The irony of this post is beyond my ability to describe.

Republicans, even at the USMB, constantly attack Democrats over poverty.

But look at where the bulk of the poor in the United States live. In Appalachia. The largest depressed area in the United States covering 13 Red States.

Study: Infant mortality up, life expectancy down in Appalachia

The Cycle of Poverty in Appalachia Continues

A View From Appalachia: Living Below The Poverty Line

It was Appalachia that put Trump over the top.
Ironically, it's been Democrats in Blue States who have actually benefited the most from Trump's policies.

If the Republican base is so lost in poverty, why do Republicans believe they know the way out of poverty?

If you really believed this bullshit, we'd have to ask why you care ?

If you are benefitting, then shut the hell up.

You don't believe infant mortality is up in Appalachia?
You don't believe life expectancy is down in Appalachia?
You don't believe there is poverty in Appalachia?
You don't believe Appalachia covers 13 Red States?
You don't believe the majority in Appalachia voted for Trump?

Which is it? One of these, more of these or all of these?

Don't care.
Stop pretending you do

 

[Thinker101]

No political party or legislation can end poverty.

Get that through your head.

Government cannot fix poverty. It never ever ever ever ever has and never will.

There is no silver bullet for poverty. The ONLY thing that has ever come close is a free-market society.

[imawhosure]

So far, nobody has explained yet why appalachia and other red states are so poverty stricken. They have God and the republicans in their corner and they're still poor.

Your argument is phony, plain and simple. Let me tell you something-------------> NOT creating obstacles for people is the governments job, that is what our constitution, and bill of rights is about. It is NOT their job to insure opportunity, although they can.

In Nebraska, what do people think is more viable...….a liberal arts degree from an expensive university, or animal husbandry? What about a womans study degree, or crop rotation?

And it works in reverse also! A Liberal arts degree would probably be more viable in New York, than a degree in animal husbandry.

Sooooooooo, what is the deal with Appalachia? Quite simple really--------->without coal mining, what are they supposed to do? They don't have Wall Street, or Hollyweird. They are drawing some tourism, but they don't have Dizzyworld. They aren't HIGH enough in the air like Colorado for massive skiing.

And then, during the Obama years, there wasn't a lot of investment anywhere except the stockmarket, because his fed was printing money like crazy.

So lets see what is happening now though! IC that WV has the second fastest growing GDP of any state, and the deep South is growing faster than the rust belt, the West, and yes......even the East. In fact, New York, California, Illinois, and New Jersey are steep declines as their people flee their jurisdiction, and resettle in, cough, cough, red states.

So you see, even Leftists are smart enough to know that THEIR way is FAIL! Now then, as long as those moving remember that what sunk their former homes and states was their insistence on taking care of everything.

I have a feeling MOST of them have learned, and that...….get ready...……..this midterm...…...your side is SCREWED!

Because the motherfucking OP has no interest in a counter argument. He is simply interested in posting flaming bullshit that helps reinforce what he needs to sleep at night in his mothers damp basement.

What he says might be true (not that he could ever prove it) and such a discussion might help move towards some reasonable solutions.

But when the board has to put up with the constant harping of a low I.Q. shithead like deanrd, it really takes away that potential

Well we are all responsible for our own words and actions. If a guys is a hard headed wing nut that does not excuse you to act in kind, it just makes you as bad as he is. This is a discussion board and many people read an engage in these threads. You can contribute to thoughtful and productive discussions or you can contribute to the noise. The choice is yours

There are more people involved in these discussions than just the OP. I don’t see how you avoiding the substance to stoop to petty partisan attacks helps things. It just makes you be as bad as the person you are trying to criticize

You have been told repeatedly that the red states get more federal funds because of the military bases there. Not the welfare you so desperately try to imply. Why do you lie so much? Are you simply incapable of telling the truth?

Another part is the racism. People don't like to invest in Confederate communities.

I don’t think racism is a platform of the GOP. I think some racists people support conservative policies that want to limit welfare and affirmative action, but those policies aren’t rooted in racism, they are rooted in small government and fiscal conservatism which I believe can be fairly debated. I don’t like it when Cons define liberals by the actions of the wingnuts so I don’t think it’s fair to do the same to them.

Conservatives are mellow people and we will always help when we can, we are just individuals doing our own thing, we want to make money, love God our children ..we will do the right thing, I don't want to get racist here but I believe in my heart blacks, Mexicans , Asians, ect... ect.. all really want to do the right thing..

But we can't have everyone in the world in our country.. some slip in..


Like the little girl I met on a greyhound bus , I posted it before, the bus driver slammed on the brakes, she went flying, I picked her up and put on the seat..but she was scared of me thought I would report her



No I said " honey are you ok"?

She ran in back of the bus, came back and kept looking at me..she found out I was no threat are her snacks and ... calmed down..

The Republican party is a threat to school lunches for hungry kids

[LuckyDuck]

Name the countries that don't have poor people. Even Norway, Denmark and Sweden have some poor.
Look around your residence, if you have:
A roof over your head.
A kitchen with pots, pans, and utensils.
A refrigerator with food in it.
A fan or air-conditioning.
A bedroom and bathroom.
A cellphone.
A television.
Some money in a bank or credit union.
Can read and write.
And....a job.
You ain't poor and the vast majority of people in this country have all of the above.
If you want to see poor, go to Marxist countries and third-world nations.

And you never want to admit why




Conservative survey respondents, then, were likely being critical not of higher education’s role in engendering success, but of what they believe to be the role of postsecondary institutions in promoting liberal values and suppressing conservative viewpoints. More than 10,000 undergraduates have participated in my research studies on campus racial climates; many are white and politically conservative. Some students of color in my studies also are conservative; they rarely characterize their campuses as racist.

Republicans, even at the USMB, constantly attack Democrats over poverty.

I already explained this to you in another thread - sending you running with your tail between your legs in humiliation.

Every county you declared as the “poorest” county in America - I proved was a Dumbocrat county. Each and everyone of them. You desperately try to pin it on conservative states, but just because the state of Texas and Florida are conservative doesn’t mean they are 100% free from progressives. Quite the contrary - they have large and vast counties of idiot progressives. And that is where you find the poorest and most destitute. Same with cities (such as Detroit). The county may be conservative, but the city in it can still be completely controlled by left-wing mayors with left-wing city councils implementing failed left-wing policies.

Class dismissed (again).
