Black Americans should stop voting for the nanny state liberals that have served only to make black Americans and indeed all disadvantaged Americans dependent on their welfare programs.
Welfare programs have done a lot to suppress black families by subsidizing family fragmentation and necessitating multi-generational dependency. Black problems aren’t solved by naming streets after Martin Luther King, Jr. or setting aside a month as Black History Month. These are liberal diversions designed to appease the black community, but have any of these actions helped blacks?
Liberals also prod guilt-ridden whites to vote for the advocates of government dependency, and anyone who does not will be labeled a “racist.”
Subsidies have led to the immobility of the poor, the breakup of the black family, and dependency on government programs. Star Parker, once trapped in the welfare cycle, wrote:
“Thirty-five years of Great Society social engineering have forced the disadvantaged to live under the control of the federal government. Politicians control their housing, food supply, schooling, wages, and transportation. A centralized government makes decisions about their childcare, healthcare, and retirement.”
Black Americans should re-examine their overwhelming voter support for liberal Left politicians who offer promises of economic freedom but deliver continued dependency while demonizing all who dare to shine a light on their record of failure.
