  • To cut off programs like section 8 and welfare, you are compounding the problem. Hows about allowing people to create self -sustaining communities (including agriculture,education, capentry,ect) by providing monies to those who are decendents of Slaves (the u.s. justice dept. proves even as recently as 1963 black people were held ae involuntary slaves ).Syudy history and connect the dots.

  • @SacrificeRecords2

    Fortunately I am not compounding the problem. Mind you (if you happen to ever listen to the news or read the papers) that some people living in section 8 and on welfare is on it life-long. Not only are they on it forever, but their children also follow in their footsteps. How will we ever get ahead if we keep ignoring the problem? Force these people to get jobs and make a living for themselves. ENCOURAGE them to become better people, at least for their kids' sake.

  • @SacrificeRecords2

    I agree we should be givn something but we as black people need to stop harping on the fact that the government has never given us anything. We need to rise up from all of this instead of making excuses for ourselves. We determine our future, not the Government. The government has no control over self-reliance, self-destruction, nor a person's own ambition to become better. Sweetheart, I've studied history, African American History in fact, and I am aware of whats going on.

  • Herman Cain is my idol.. no more excuses

  • When I was driving from Florida to north Oklahoma on business...I could not get over the poverty of northern Louisiana and southern Arkansas...it was not only shockingly poor for hundreds of miles....but families just walking the streets during the late morning. No kids in schools because the schools were closed and grassed over. God help this once great nation.

  • Poverty creates crime. Crime creates Prisons. Prisons creates free labor. If it was a problem that need to be fix they would...But it seems they like it the way it is.....As long as we steal and kill each other it will stay the same....We are doing them a favor.....It want change until there communities are effected....

  • @swill74 since u think u know whats going on y dont u research the fact that even if all able bodied people were to look for work how many jobs r available compared to those needing a job and once u do that research only then can u give an educated assessment of the situation

  • controlled I mean (not cotrolled)//

  • The information I am speaking of will not be in the cotrolled media (newspapersa,news,ect) those are cotrolled entities. What I am talking about is deliberate neglect of black farmers in regards to monies that were disbursed and not given to them. I am talking about communities of sharecroppers and decendents of those who are left desolete and refused resourses. I am talking about school systems set against black children with racist policies.ect,ect!

  • Both replies do not address my statement to you;"Hows about allowing people to create self -sustaining communities (including agriculture,education, capentry,ect) by providing monies to those who are decendents of Slaves (the u.s. justice dept. proves even as recently as 1963 black people were held ae involuntary slaves ).Study history and connect the dots."
