Does anyone realize that the entire EU gas free healthcare, are they socialists. In fact the Euro is a higher valued currency than the dollar. If free healthcare is socialism and will destroy the economy, then why isn’t the Euro trash?

Typical tRUMPf supporter ignoring facts and embarrassed that they have no counter argument. Nice try saving face.

But he is NOT MY President.
tRUMPf is the first President who is NOT the POTUS of the entire country. He is only the President of his base.
Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter, Ford, and even Nixon were all Presidents of the ENTIRE country regardless of their party. Not tRUMPf.
I think Pence would be...but tRUMPf is not.
God if only he would stroke out we could recite those beautiful words "President Pence."

YOU have the same opportunity to achieve all that you can, IF YOU WORK FOR IT. Sadly the Socialist minded want to sit on their ass and have it handed to them. There are plenty of 4 day work-weeks available out there. And just because somebody chooses to work for something does NOT make them "soul sucked." It's a matter of opinion, and I disagree.

you sure about that? This country is racist if you look closely. First of all Black men never get decent jobs why is that? even if they were fairly educated. Have you noticed how black people get a hundred years in jail for what stealing a bike? It's economic slavery. All of those laborers are working their asses off because they have to.

Equality under the law does not address and solve the centuries of discrimination and slavery blacks face which hold down black people, it simply makes it so such mistreatment doesn't persist for longer.

Slavery ended in 1865. You cannot legislate prejudice. You can legislate equality under the law. The fight against prejudice requires all sides to improve perceptions. If you are a group responsible for an inordinate amount of killing and mayhem you will be perceived as a threat. This is a physiological response to perceived danger. Like when an ibex sees a lion, or a lion sees a man.

Do you realize the devastating material impacts centuries of slavery, discrimination, redlining had on the prosperity of black Americans today? Making it all illegal on paper doesn't erase that damage. And don't get me started on the many systemic biases blacks face in the criminal justice system.

You live in the past and want everyone else to go back and pay for the sins of the father. On the other hand you say those who disagree live in the past and want to bring back the 50’s. The history of man is a history of injustices visited on every group. I don’t owe anyone anything for history. I make no claim for the historical
Mistreatment of my ancestors so why should I honor that claim?

Systemic racism Is a myth, I don’t believe it. You kill, rape, rob, murder you go to jail regardless of skin color. I’m for you staying there until you pay off the victim for their loss. If you took a life you can’t make it up so you stay there forever.

1. If conservatives truly believe in equality of opportunity, then it is imperative that the injustices that make it so blacks today do not start at the same place as whites is fixed.

And I asked you how that is if they both earn minimum wage and marry someone making minimum wage. How does the white woman have an advantage. Just because you were left money or property doesn’t mean everyone has that. There are still lots of white people who get no generational pass down wealth and lots who grow up in poverty. You like to call them white trash or Smelly KMart shoppers. You operate on a series of falsities and lies.

"And I asked you how that is if they both earn minimum wage and marry someone making minimum wage. How does the white woman have an advantage."

Well, in that specific example, no one has the advantage. Of course if a black husband and wife both make the minimum wage, they will have the same wealth as a white family making minimum wage. The problem is.......whites statistically have more wealth than blacks. There are more white people who make way more than the minimum wage as compared to blacks. You haven't made an argument against my point.

"There are still lots of white people who get no generational pass down wealth and lots who grow up in poverty. You like to call them white trash or Smelly KMart shoppers."

Say with with me: S-T-R-A-W-M-A-N argument. Of course there are poor whites in this country, no one is denying this. My point isn't that poor whites don't exist or that poor whites don't matter, but that black families on average, have much less wealth than than white families on average, and that forcing blacks to marry won't solve that.

How is it not a cultural issue? It most certainly is rooted in cultural issues. Generalizing that white women all have more wealth than black women is crap. Who do you think owns the houses in south central LA? Lots of black families own houses that are the basis for generational wealth to be pissed away by the offspring whote or black. Once again there needs to be truthful discussions about the Sochi economic issues and not all of it is white people or the system.
0 ups, 4y
I already demonstrated to you that making black people marry doesn't close the wealth gap. Which means, there are larger forces at play that make it so white families have more intergenerational wealth than black families.....like centuries of slavery, discrimination, and redlining.

Are you saying white kids don’t grow up in poverty and adversity? You can’t regulate fathers choosing not to stay with their children. The true issues afflicting the black community are ignored. Black families use to be very strong. Now their militants and you as their allies poo poo the importance of having a father. Curiously you don’t feel the same about not having a mother. The fact is the opportunity for success is diminished simply by being without one or the other. So how will you equalize that? As long as you blame someone else for your failures you can never address the real issues.

You believe you float through life and are powerless against the tide the wind the weather and just float wherever it pushes you. You will drown 50 yards off shore. Sometimes you have to choose direction and paddle to get where you need to be.

Good thing I never made that argument.

As long as you blame someone else for your failures you can never address the real issues."

This is a very complex issue to me at least, but simply put, even if all black women married black men, it isn't enough to bridge the racial gap. White married woman have significantly more wealth than black married women.

And if you really want more black women to be married, than end mass incarceration and improve the socioeconomic conditions of black men. This isn't a cultural issue,

You demonstrated nothing. You said marriage doesn’t bridge the wealth gap. What you say is opinion so it “demonstrates” Nothing. Tell me how a minimum wage earning female marrying a minimum wage earning male provides a wealth gap for a black vs white couple in the same circumstance?
0 ups, 4y
You claimed that the reason why blacks aren't doing as well as whites is because they don't marry. I demonstrated to you, using facts and data, that even if all blacks marry, blacks will still have less wealth than white families as demonstrated by existing black families.

For real because of people like me? You may Think you're not racist and maybe you aren't on the outside but dude I'ma be real with you, I was walking the other day with my friends we were in a pretty good area and we saw a bunch of black guys pull up in a decent car, they were going to the park. We got scared cause they were wearing those type of hip clothes with their pants down. I felt so bad because they were nice. It's just how this world is shaped, and another thing There are no black people in any good colleges, you said lots of black people get decent jobs, give me examples, I live In Washington. I haven't seen a single black software engineer, and if you didn't know Washington is the biggest I.T. sector in America besides Silicon Valley.

So you fear black men and that means everyone fears them? I’m not doing homework for you there are black men and women all over in positions of power. Including politics, law enforcement, corporate positions, entertainment, etc. but you want to play the all white people are like me and afraid of black people because I’m racist. Sometimes it has nothing to do with you, maybe people don’t like
You because you’re a dick not because of the color of your skin.

Capitalism leads to division of class, oppression from Oligarchs, and Authoritarianism. remember that the next time to have to shell out $$$THOUSANDS for medical procedures or have trouble finding a full-time job that pays enough for you and your family to survive with health insurance benefits. Capitalism is a rigged system.

the Ultra wealthy spend BILLIONS on propaganda to make Conservative/Republican supporters not care if their wealth gets greater. They brainwash you just like Rupert Murdoch. And they use scare words like "Socialism" and tell you its Communism. Well its not. And it does not lead to communism.

I said it’s the same thing. Just because you want to get to communism in baby steps doesn’t mean you aren’t communist. If your Canadian than stay out of our politics you worry about Trudeau and his bullshit. Why don’t you open up your f**king border? How come Canada doesn’t have more black people?
