Nearby (to me) Toledo, Ohio was a SWAMP when it was settled. The land was drained, cleared and farmed by WHITES. Negros weren't/arent capable of doing anything with the land. Whining seems to be about itIM2 clings to the fantasy that whites were given prime farm land ready to plant. It wasn’t, in all cases it was virgin wilderness that needed years of work to turn into farm land. On the east coast it was covered by dense hardwood forests and on the Great Plains which is what he usually complains about, it was prairie that laughed at horse-drawn plows and lacked water. Even today those plots are only productive because of deep tube wells and artificial irrigation. Oh and in both areas the land was inhabited by hostile natives who were more than happy to kill, torture and rape the invaders.
I'd think he would prefer Somalia, no whites at all and no government. IM2 could really make his mark there and shape the new government exactly as he wants it. He could really show us racist whites how to do things.You REALLY need to move back to Wakanda. I hear it's beautiful this time of the year
Blacks are just a capable as whites on the whole. You can't judge the whole race by malcontents like IM2 and inner-city ghetto dwellers.Nearby (to me) Toledo, Ohio was a SWAMP when it was settled.

I'm judging by Africa, Haiti, and the rest of the Caribbean. Yes, a percentage of blacks in free western nations succeed better than the majority of whites, but these are the rare fewBlacks are just a capable as whites on the whole.

we totally get it, you are a racist who hates white people...poor black man, some are forced to work for a living...how freaking awful...and those get accused of acting whiteWhether it was colonial government or the current republic we have now, the government has provided whites with more than it has ever given to anyone else. This was not because people of color did not take the opportunity because most of these things EXCLUDED non white participation. The handouts/privilege started with this:
In 1618, the Virginia colony passed "the Great Charter of privileges, orders, and laws." Among these laws was a provision that any person who settled in Virginia or paid for the transportation of another person to settle in Virginia would get fifty acres of land per person. “The right to receive fifty acres per person, or per head, was called a headright.” It got even better for colonists as those who “imported” slaves also got fifty acres per slave. The practice was continued by the government of Virginia, for 161 years, ending in 1779. Headrights were not only limited to Virginia. The headright system was used in all the original thirteen colonies. Headrights were the first of many government handouts of free stuff or guarantees providing whites with economic development assistance.
It continued with this:
The Three-Fifths Compromise is found in Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution. It says: “Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three-fifths of all other Persons.”
And with this:
The Naturalization Act of 1790 states: “any alien, being a free white person,” could apply for citizenship, so long as they lived in the United States for at least two years and in the state where the application was filed for at least one year. This law allowed “children of citizens of the United States that may be born … out of the limits of the United States shall be considered as natural-born citizens.” Please notice the first seven words. Only whites were entitled to be citizens of this country.
And with this:
One of the greatest miscarriages of justice in this nation’s history was a direct rebuttal to the claim that all men are created equal called Dred Scott v. Sandford. I am not going into all the particulars of this case. The court’s opinion says all you need to know. “A black man has no rights a white man is bound to respect.” The result of Dred Scott v. Sandford was that whites were given rights and status blacks were denied.Or- Affirmative Action.
And with this:
Passed in 1862, the Homestead Acts gave away 246 million acres of land. To qualify for Homestead land, a person had to be a citizen of the United States, and blacks were not given citizenship until 1866.
And this:
On April 16, 1895, the United States Supreme Court rendered another one of the sorriest decisions in American history. It is known as Plessy vs. Ferguson. From this decision came the principle of separate but equal.
And this:
The National Housing Act was passed by Congress and signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934.29 This law created the Federal Housing Administration or the FHA. The National Housing Act is the policy that may have had the most impact on wealth accumulation in modern America.
Between 1934 and 1968, the FHA implemented and put into practice a policy that still negatively impacts communities today.30 The FHA Underwriting Manual set the guidelines real estate agents used to assess home values in American neighborhoods. This manual promoted racist real estate practices. It was done by defending racially restrictive covenants and segregated communities. Due to this manual, the FHA established a neighborhood grading system based purely on false racist perceptions.
Redlining was the name of that grading system. My point here is the FHA was a government agency whose policies specifically provided whites with opportunities to increase wealth through homeownership. The formation of the FHA and its guaranteed loan program only worked to increase white advantage. “Of the $120 billion worth of new housing subsidized by the government between 1934 and 1962, less than 2 percent went to nonwhite families.”
And this:
The Social Security Act of 1935 created the Social Security program, state unemployment insurance, and assistance to single women with children.Today, most Americans love the program. However, when the act was signed, the law excluded occupations mainly done by blacks. When President Roosevelt signed the law, approximately two-thirds of the blacks in America were ineligible. For years, most blacks were excluded from social security savings and could not get unemployment.
And this:
Title 4 or IV of the social security act of 1935 provided grants to states as Aid To Dependent Children. Eventually the name of the program was changed to Aid to Families with Dependent Children. This was welfare, folks. Assistance for single moms with children and no daddy at home. In 1935. Blacks were excluded.
And this:
The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 created the minimum wage and time and a half overtime pay for working over forty hours a week. Child labor was eliminated by this act. All these were good things, but… In every law that was passed as part of The New Deal, Roosevelt had to compromise with southern representatives to get the votes he needed. In the case of the FLSA, due to pressure from southern congress members, he decided that industries would be excluded from the regulations where the majority of workers were black. Because of this, blacks were paid less than the minimum wage.
And this:
On June 22, 1944, President Roosevelt signed the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act, better known as the G.I. Bill.38 This law provided benefits for veterans returning from World War Two. This act included funds for college tuition, low-cost home loans, and unemployment insurance. As in every other program during this time, southern members of Congress fought the passage of these laws unless there were provisions that limited access to blacks.
Over one million returning black soldiers were unable to get GI benefits. My father was one of those soldiers.
And today white women are the number one beneficiary of affirmative action. So when you're white trying to diss blacks with affirmative action, look in the mirror and you will see the image of the people who have benefitted the most from what you say Affirmative Action is. When you start ranting about government handouts and dependence look in the mirror again. The dependence on government by whites is why we see the complaining due to the fact that others are getting what some whites think they are entitled to. After all, when you bitch about imaginary quotas that if they were real, would give whites 70 percent of the jobs, admissions, government contracts and promotions, the only reason that you are bitching is because you believe you are entitled to everything.
What a crock. EVERY advance in Science ,industry ,engineering ,and inventivness was done by European White MEN.

White Straight Males can also be liberals, which is just as bad. They budget millions for bike paths while the lakes turn into swamps (also a long story).Not even sure how the two things are comparable... but you do go on.
If you have an entire board made up of White Straight Males on the theory that other white straight males think they are the most qualified, you are going to get a board that doesn't represent the interests of 70% of the population.
That is incorrect.What a crock. EVERY advance in Science ,industry ,engineering ,and inventivness was done by European White MEN. This includes Russians.
No, I'm stating the truth of documented history that you apparently cannot face.we totally get it, you are a racist who hates white people...poor black man, some are forced to work for a living...how freaking awful...and those get accused of acting white
Wrong.Nearby (to me) Toledo, Ohio was a SWAMP when it was settled. The land was drained, cleared and farmed by WHITES. Negros weren't/arent capable of doing anything with the land. Whining seems to be about it
Throughout our history, the only people who have whined has been white men.Nearby (to me) Toledo, Ohio was a SWAMP when it was settled. The land was drained, cleared and farmed by WHITES. Negros weren't/arent capable of doing anything with the land. Whining seems to be about it
Discrimination by sexual orientation is illegal, unless done by liberals and In favor of gays. The best qualified should get the job.

Actually, the lakes are turning into marshes. Rivers turn into swamps.I'm sure it is... and I'm sure that if we had all the details, it's not what you are presenting it as.
My guess, if a "lake" is turning into a swamp, there are probably wetlands issues involved.
Actually, the lakes are turning into marshes. Rivers turn into swamps.
Geologically speaking lakes are scars on the land which nature will heal over time by filling them in with vegetative growth. To maintain lakes for human use they must be maintained as lakes, not allowed to return to their primal state. This is easily done by removing the excess fertility that accumulates naturally in the lakes through nutrient seepage and runoff. This is done by harvesting the excess aquatic weed growth regularly.Okay, that doesn't give me any more insight to how this is a government problem where they spent money on bikepaths instead and that was bad.
What were they supposed to do to keep the lakes from turning into marshes? Was the underlying cause man-made, or was it just nature taking its course?
