LBJ Destroyed African-American Families

[nehalem256]

That's all you got one dead guy?

Riddle me this Batman, where did all those racist Dixiecrats go running after those acts passed and have been living in comfort ever since?

Since you seem so knowledgeable why don't you tell us what percentage of Dixiecrats went running to the Republican Party?

Except for physical/mental abuse, adultery, and outright negligence, there is this word called compromise were you give a little and try to work together in-spite of ones self and personal desires for the sake of the family,

.

A concept just about alien to the narcissistic millennials.

So kinda like how liberals change the definition of minority to fit their ideology :twisted:



Maybe don't have kids with people you can't stand?:whiste:

Hey you know what also doesn't lead to health atmosphere to raise kids in? Poverty!

You know what drastically increases the chances of a kid living in poverty? Single-motherhood!

Sorry, didn't realize that one of them was your girlfriend. Ah well, there are plenty more toasters at the store. I'm sure you'll find another one to love.

Why was social welfare needed in the first place?
Because of the injustice with the hiring of minorities.
Families needed unions, healthcare, and equal pay in order to succeed.
And to level the playing field.
Ward Cleaver and his family were never turned away from a restaurant due to their skin color. Nor I doubt when obtaining a white color position in the business world.

If the white business world, back then as well as today, had played fair we would not have so much property within minority communities.
If anyone has this illusion that minorities are not treated differently when it comes to employment, housing, and basic treatment, think again.
Not much has changed.
And lately, things have been in regression.

When you are a minority of the wrong skin color, and greatly stereotyped as well, and you need to feed your family or house yourself and no employer will consider you for a decent job, selling drugs on the street corner becomes a plausible option. Probably the only option.

If conditions were different or had been different, sure, we probably would have no need for social welfare today or back during LBJ. But that is the perfect world. We never have lived in that perfect world.
And it looks like we will not for some time to come.
Just watch the national news on any given night to confirm that.

So with Affirmative Action gone, businesses would no longer discriminate based on race or ethnicity (nor age, gender, etc.).

Fascinating, do tell us more.

Affirmative action forces quotas in certain places. Get rid of quotas. It is illegal, with or without affirmative action, to discriminate based on race and gender. Do you think by removing affirmative action that people will refuse to hire minorities?

Yawn!! Old shtick, you need new material.

Let's see, you're a conservative libertarian who helped destroy his family and family values; who knows all about easy access to divorce, aren't you Trollhiker?

2/3 divorces are initiated by women. Pretty sure Texashiker isn't a woman(unless he had another chainsaw accident ).

Do you think by removing affirmative action that people will refuse to hire minorities?

Removing the quota will not promote discrimination.

Affirmative action lowers the bar for employees. Rather than being qualified for a job, just play the race card.

If you want a job, you have to work to get it.

Works out great for government contractors like the people that built Healthcare.gov...

Oh wait D:
