Being Democrats doesn't make them America haters. You people just plain blow.
Check the Democrat platform and what ALL the Dem Presidential candidates are pushing.
Amnesty for Illegal Aliens
Free healthcare for illegal aliens
Free college for illegal aliens
Climate Change taxes, and much higher energy costs
Higher income taxes
Reparations for Blacks (guilting Americans)
Reparations for LGBT (guilting Americans)
How is that not America HATE?
I don't support all that. But "hate" is the wrong word. Sounds like a lot of generosity to me. I thought you folks have already been saying illegals get free healthcare. Isn't that one of your biggest bitches? Some states have already begun offering community college for free. It's not a bad idea if they can afford it. I don't know what makes you think it's being offered to illegals, though. Are you talking about DACA kids?
We can pay for climate change now, or pay through the ass later.
This retort brought to you by a person who loves America.
Sliding in agenda comments with your principal agenda comments is why people are tired of you. Here is a direct queation you should have some anger with. Why did the United States remove a black female astronaut from a mission to the International Space Station in Jan. of 2018. She was scheduled to go a couple of months later. Its been over 18 months and we do not know why. Some people are calling it racism. Now find out. So we all can know.
Sure we do. It's called privilege. You have a black woman who was already marked as a child as an under achiever because of who she is and where she came from. Their culture was imbedded into our society for four hundred years, between slavery, no right to vote, and were denied the use of white bathrooms and eateries. This went on up until the sixties. And your shallow minded thinking can't see the damage that was done there. Was she prepared? Probably not? And I wonder if she ever will be, knowing the history of family members before her.
It's all about the culture of a people, and the wealth and power each represents. In your shallow world, you expect a four hundred year old culture to just simply vanish. Blacks should be experiencing the same benefits as whites, when they clearly do not, even to this day. Why? Because whites still control all the wealth and power in this country. That is the answer to your question. Education, housing, opportunity has never been the same. And affirmative action was always a joke, because we put people in positions they didn't qualify for, so it ended up as a failure.
My parents did not see anything improve in their lives until the mid 1950's when they were married. They had no wealth and power. Both worked. My mother a secretary which is a common job. And my father after delivering sandwiches for a few years ended up working in a clothing manufacturing job. This one tuxedos.
That's because we had a depression and two wars. Which by the way, left Blacks totally out of mainstream society. To even attem-pt to compare the two dynamics in that period of time is totally laughable, and out of touch.
African Americans worked these jobs also.
No they didn't. Show me the statistics of their participation? Hell, they weren't even able to use the same bathrooms or eateries.
I do not believe quotas and affirmative action are a joke.
Sure it was, because it was designed to fail by hiring unqualified Blacks.
I believe a percentage of what was hired is a joke. And that denied jobs to others.
That argument is moot, because it does not address the underlying failure of affirmative action.
I have made excuses in life. I also have been wronged. You bring up the being wronged part. But not the excuses.
They are not excuses. They are a record of fact. The training for jobs with affirmative action were never there.
To those who have screwed me over I have no concern for. And no concern for their families.
Not their fault. That is the fault of the system not the employee. It blows my mind that folks like you turn the other cheek to the obvious.
You do realize people paid a price to improve things don't you? One example...in the early 1970's quotas and affirmative action ramped up to the point that white males were put last on the list and not hired for half decent jobs.
That is the fault of the system, not unqualified blacks. Again, how people like you cannot see the obvious is just too shallow.
You do realize that, don't you? Going to college was not as infected as today though. So those who went still had a chance to half decent white collar jobs. Others went into the service like me and the same agendas after getting discharged was prevalent. The difference being you got 5 points if you took a test for a job. That is when I became a bit political. You seem to be another judge, jury and executioner on people who if they do not kiss your butt have to be haters and racists. You better find out about white male impoverishment and them being on the bottom of the ladder.
That is another kind of racism in this country pedaled by the Right-wing. Keep them stupid, ignorant, and gullible to the cult of personality which exemplifies the Republican party, then it is mission accomplished.
I believe we have institutionalized poverty.
You just figuring that out? Lol! What do you think section 8 housing was/is all about?
I believe a percentage of people do not want to leave it also.
That is the percentage who know the system is stacked against them. They realized that with section 8 housing and much of the rural white impoverished south and midwest.
They have made a currency within the currency we use to survive and made up their own rules with the social welfare system we devised to help people to get out of poverty. Any wealth my family ever had it earned. For it was at zero in the beginning.
And they are white, good for them. Because the blacks in the same area never stood a chance to even get that far, because they were not associated with privilege.
