  They're very smart; they vote democrat in return for warehousing and other valuable consideration. Apparently the great liberal democrat social failure is only measured in terms economic value given in return for continued political power, because the social costs borne by the rest of society are incalcuable: complete breakdown of the family; nearly 80% of births out of wedlock; horrific school drop out rate; immeasurable crime.
  
  If a democrat is in favor of the trillions pissed away on ruining an entire group of people numbering into the tens of millions, they are either a spineless phony preying on the uneducated, or a complete jackarse.

  Your proposition is contradictory. A smart person or group doesn't continually bargain for short term meager benefits when in the aggregate the bargain is openly and obviously detrimental.
  
  Why are blacks so eager to live miserably on our pathetic welfare state when all they need to do for untold prosperity is elect Republicans who will allow them to be free and thrive off of the democrat plantation?
  
  Lol it is absurd on its face but it is entertaining that this is the theory of hardcore tea partiers. Meanwhile I'm sure it will broaden the appeal of the Republican party to keep trumpeting to minorities how they've been bought and sold with handouts. :thumbup:

  Walter Williams, Ben Carson, Thomas Sowell, Herman Cain, Allen West, etc. are not Uncle Toms. They're all smart and talented men. They're simply incorrect. Private Sector Demand has been largely extracted out of these communities and neighborhoods where the majority of minorities live by sprawl and white flight and the American dream of living in the suburbs from yester-year. The Welfare State has just managed to make these effects less worse than they would've been. However, what we should've done from day one is kept the New Deal going and had a permanent jobs program like Hyman Minsky argued in "Jobs, not welfare" and we would've been able to avoid all of this demagoguery about minorities on teh d0Le and the democrat plantation, etc. that Nixon started to win over working class white voters who were persuaded by the thought of public monies going to "those people".

  He wasn't a Republican. He said this in Cleveland in 1964:
  

  I'm not a politician, not even a student of politics; in fact, I'm not a student of much of anything. I'm not a Democrat. I'm not a Republican, and I don't even consider myself an American. If you and I were Americans, there'd be no problem. Those Honkies that just got off the boat, they're already Americans; Polacks are already Americans; the Italian refugees are already Americans. Everything that came out of Europe, every blue-eyed thing, is already an American. And as long as you and I have been over here, we aren't Americans yet.

  No, I'm not an American. I'm one of the 22 million black people who are the victims of Americanism. One of the 22 million black people who are the victims of democracy, nothing but disguised hypocrisy. So, I'm not standing here speaking to you as an American, or a patriot, or a flag-saluter, or a flag-waver -- no, not I. I'm speaking as a victim of this American system. And I see America through the eyes of the victim. I don't see any American dream; I see an American nightmare.

  Not a Republican and looks to me like he totally embraced the so-called victim/entitlement attitude that you despise. Also heavily investing in these ideas based on color.
  
  Perhaps it's time to drop your affinity for your boy Malcolm X
• BoatShoes

  Worth noting. The whole point of Malcolm X trying to organize the black community after the Kennedy election was to fight for the types of programs and public intervention, New-Deal style programs and civil rights programs that were accomplished with the Great Society which people now use to demonize the black community and their support for democrats.

  So all these smart/talented men are wrong, but you are correct? And you're humble too right?

  Toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo funnnnnnnyyy
  
  
  The welfare state has gifted the black community with 80% illegitimate birth rates, no fathers/no families, horrific unemployment, disastrous public housing, unsurpassed crime, unbelievable school drop out rates, and no hope. And you think we need MORE of that? Talk about immeasurable insanity ---- WOW! You really are a socialist or a marxist; and apparently highly upset that you have run out of other people's money to fund this historic failure of a policy.

  Well, what I said was "Jobs, Not Welfare" in the mold of the WPA. Things would be worse w/o SNAP, SSDI, Section 8 etc. but that doesn't mean we can't do better. Also, in the United States, a country with its own currency, you don't need "other people's money". In fact, it's non-sensical as the money to pay taxes as a matter of logic first comes from the government printing press or computer or from a bank creating credit that is regulated by the Central bank. Ironically that is all courtesy of Richard Nixon who was the most liberal president since FDR that we have had.
  
  And, nothing about a strong public sector employer of last resort is Marxist or Socialist (in the vein you mean it). I'm a capitalist who understands that underemployment and unemployment is a necessary by product to control price stability and that the Public has a role in ameliorating this reality. Marx opposed social insurance because it would support the Capitalist mode of production (as Keynes pointed out in the General Theory...talking about how supporting demand freed the entrepreneur to invest in an environment without the odds against him) and prevent the working class from uniting against the capitalists enriching themselves off the rent from the working class.
  
  And, if whites and wealth had not emigrated to the suburbs and cloaked themselves in corporate veils in protection of their wealth, taking the work away with them, the inner cities where minorities live wouldn't have the problems they have today even with the Great Society.

  I didn't say I was smart nor talented or on any plane with these men. What have I to brag about? Just ask QCB, I am a fool. Or ask Belly, I'm a lowly unemployed former Hungry Howie's worker. I'm certainly no combustion engineer.
  
  However, other smart people, who've persuaded me, think differently than these men. There is a difference between being smart and being ultimately wrong. Reasonable and intelligent people often disagree. However, the preponderance of the evidence supports the reasons I list, IMHO, and not the views of these particular men listed. Ptolemy was a smart man undoubtedly but Copernicus ultimately had it right. If you view the world colored by geocentrism like Ptolemy, your theories about how the world works are going to be incorrect, even if you're smart and talented.

  This is a line that I hear regularly with zero fact to support it. It is your opinion. I think if the black community had been forced to take care of itself, we would see far less of the disaster we see today. They vote straight line democrat and look where it's gotten them. The idea of taking care of yourself is largely foreign in the black community. There are low or no expectations and zero shame in taking a free handout of bilking the system.
  
  I remember reading Malcolm X's autobiography a seeing quotes like the one cited in this thread. I wonder where in Africa someone like that would prefer to be.

  The percentage of African-Americans in poverty in 1960 was >55%. The percentage in 1968 was <27%. According to the latest census, 27.4% of african-americans are in poverty. So, the Great Society caused a dramatic improvement but we could've done much better (i.e. keeping the WPA instead of means-tested sustenance progams) but it certainly contributed to improving the lives of african americans if you think 27% poverty is > 55% poverty.
  
  Also, your assertion that black people don't believe in taking care of themselves is, of course, a derogatory and offensive view of an entire group of people. It's not hard to see why blacks don't vote in solidarity with people who think that about them. Hope this helps. :thumbup:

  If you want to have something like the WPA, it should be tied in with Welfare/Section 8/Food Stamps. You don't get your aid unless you work on a public project like the ones the WPA did (parks, public buildings, etc) for "x" number of hours a week (should be around 30 like the original WPA had).
  
  Then you and I would be in agreement for once.

  TANF, Section 8, Food Stamps should all be eliminated in favor a Job Guarantee at a minimum wage/price floor and should've never been created in the first place. The idea that the private sector would absorb unemployed workers and they only needed temporary assistance until the private sector would return to full employment has been nightmarishly wrong. These were created in the 60's when the economy was in the midst of the greatest boom in history and we began to think we had won the day against depressions.
  
  The Non-Accelerating Inflation Rate of Unemployment should be replaced with an Buffer Stock of employed labor at a wage-price floor to control inflation as was called for in the Humphrey-Hawkins Full Employment Act. The level of people employed in the Employer of Last Resort program would vary along the business cycle.

  Did a far left wing liberal just say that Section 8, Welfare, and Food Stamps should be eliminated?
  
  Check your blood pressure and your temperature, because you must be feeling ill BS.

  Your head need not explode. This is what old school genuine keynesian/post-keynesian liberals (not paul samuelson-style neo-classical types) including myself have always stood for. I recognize that the hodge-podge welfare programs are better than if we had no automatic stabilizers besides soup kitchens as in the Great Depression but we can have much better automatic stabilizers in the form of Public Employment as a Last Resort. If you, a hardcore evangelical conservative can agree with me, what you call a far left wing liberal, on this issue...we does it have to be a pipe dream?
