My Wednesday Rant (holla back black people)

If someone took a poll of honest white Americans and asked them if they would be willing to pay higher taxes to promote social and economic equality between the races, I can guarantee that most whites would object. They would do a mental calculus of benefit/cost. Since they have the higher standard of living, they would lose more than they would gain. Blacks, with a lower standard of living, would thus gain more than they lose, on average. Thus if it is TRUE that equality is better morally than inequality, between races, then the reason whites object is not born from the desire to seek TRUTH but rather, to preserve their monetary and social status interest. That’s the best proof that I can give you, however, you can bring a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink it.

What I am proposing is the promotion of social and economic racial equality. Everyone would be taxed, but those who get the most return over their out flows are blacks and Native Americans. while whites would have a net loss. do not try to obfuscate the issue in terms of progressive or regressive tax methodologies. I am simply taking in theory here.

White leaders can then decide how to use the tax money going to eliminate white poverty, since they BEST understand the issues and problems of whites, while black leaders would be allowed to decide how to use the black dollars, because blacks BEST understand our problems and needs.

In essence, what I propose, would, in effect produce what you want to produce by focusing simply on poverty. No matter how you focus, by class or by race, blacks come out as the primary beneficiaries, due to blacks being disproportionately poor.

Thus, I am all for focusing on class too.

The only thing that I would add, however, is that black people should be able to use the pool of taxes dollars that they would get for the black poor, in the way that we chose to use them and not have a cookie cutter approach of solving poverty that is caused by differing phenomenon.

White leaders can then decide how to use the tax money going to eliminate white poverty, since they BEST understand the issues and problems of whites, while black leaders would be allowed to decide how to use the black dollars, because blacks BEST understand black problems and needs.

It is not absurd. You must really be naïve. Do you not realize that target marketing takes place hourly, where advertisers cater their selling to the specific needs and desires of men, women, young, old, black, white, Hispanic, rich, poor, by zipcodes, by states, by regions so on and so fourth? Why do you think that doctors SPECIALIZE. According to you, they should all be general practitioners instead of tribalizing body parts and organs to develop a greater degree of expertise and solutions and cures to illnesses. Moreover, the whole concept of being American and supporting America is TRIBAL.

You do not know anything about solving problems and you certainly do not even know what is practiced in your own nation dailty, if you cannot see the wisdom of specializing in the specific needs of specific communities.

That is simply asinine and absurd ignorance. Why should be who really do not understand and live the problems and issues of black people, have say over the means to solve our problems? The white majority will create a cookie cutter solution or application of dollars for the poor will primarily address the needs of the dominant majority of the poor, WHICH ARE WHITE. This leaves the special needs of black poverty unattended to.

You people kill me with your hypocrisy. Always talking about not promoting tribalism or division, why being staunch patriots to some dang flag and nation as if that is not tribalism and separation.
