There are plenty of reasons why blacks are in the situation they are in. Some are self inflicted some are society. But to simply rail in one direction is just irresponsible. The posters here who lean to hard in one direction are choosing to ignore other factors. Those opinions are garbage.
This ppost is a ridiculous example.
Ed Wallis:
Earl Ofari Hutchinson: “This points to the single greatest reason for the higher number of black children who live in one-parent households. That reason is poverty.
SO TRUE!!! I need a state-subsidized nanny too! …and then I’ll be able to spend ALL THE TIME I WANT with my children in my state-susidized mansion, watching the state-subsidized TV together and driving around in my state-subidized limo…an’ “da Man” will gotta pay fo’ it! /sarc
PUH-LEASE: SPeaking of “stereotypes, who IS the moron who wrote this decades old canard…“blame it on “poverty”?! …and why is an ostensibly literate site like PJM sponsoring such cr*p?!
I have seen welfare recipients and they do not live well at all.
My mother raised me as a single mother. She didn’t drive so we could afford the rent in a better neighborhood( still a very rough area). I was the kid who couldn’t get free lunch because my mom was right at the cut off point. In 1988 I got $1.25 every day to by lunch and , that was it. The kids that got free lunch I thought had it made until I got to really know a few. They lived in horrible conditions roaches, rats, violent crime ridden neighborhoods,slum lords. So it is bull to try and glorify welfare life. Now to place blame is another story and is complex. But it isn’t anything like above. That is just a person with an agenda. And it isn’t about spending.
