Do Liberals Keep Poor Minorities Down?

Most Democrats do not want to "help" Black or poor Americans with these programs that they push and glorify. The ones that still think that most of these social programs are actually helping people are either politically and economically immature or just plain silly. Anyone with a history book, some years on 'em, and a brain can see that these programs are not designed to help people the way that they need to be helped.

Its like putting a band-aid on a bullet wound.

If the welfare system were designed to temporarily help people and get them off welfare, you wouldn't see these 3rd and 4th generation welfare mothers running around like they do. The jobs that they help you get are chicken crap jobs with no upward mobility, and there is no incentive for people who use the programs to ever strive to get off of the assistance. Democrats who have been doing this thing for a while know that; but they don't care. You mess with their money and power when you stop the process. Create a welfare state, and those who promote excessive government involvement stay in power. When you tell Big Brother you need him, he continues to come to the 'rescue'.

Poverty and ignorance are a business, and SOME people are getting paid...

Think about it; if the goal were really to end poverty, either they really SUCK at their jobs, or no one has figured out in God knows how many years how to help poor people not to be poor anymore.

But the people in charge aren't poor....hmmm....they could figure it out for themselves, but they can't seem to help you figure it out.

Anyway, that point has been made. The reason why I say 'no' as well is because its not supposed to be their job to figure out how to get you out of your mess. Its not supposed to be their job to support you. I agree that everyone needs a helping hand sometime. But Negroes act like they need a helping hand, arm, foot, leg, and torso, too! Black people have gotten lazy and complacent, and for some strange reason, most of us still think that someone owes us something. That much is our own fault 100 times over. Its just a shame that so many people have learned to take advantage of us in our poverty and ignorance.

I just hate for someone to PRETEND like they care when they really don't...

My 25 cents (I used my two cents up a long time ago...)
