THE NEW FACE OF SLAVERY
Shortly after the Civil Rights movement victories, Democrats
began passing laws to help “poor people,” by providing subsidies for food,
clothing, and shelter.
As
a part of the Great Society, President
Lyndon B Johnson believed in expanding the federal government's roles in
“helping” black people. Here are some of those programs:
Medicaid Grants to States
Food Stamps (SNAP)
Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)
Housing assistance
Child Nutrition Program (CHIP)
Support Payments to States, TANF
Feeding Programs (WIC & CSFP)
Low Income Home Energy Assistance
Food
Stamp Act of 1964
The Economic
Opportunity Act of 1964 which
created the Community Action Program, Job Corps, and Volunteers in Service to America (VISTA), centerpiece of the "war on
poverty" – August 20, 1964
Elementary and
Secondary Education Act -
April 11, 1965
Fifty years and $20 trillion later, LBJ's goal to
help the poor become self-supporting has failed.
Or, maybe it accomplished
exactly what the racist Democrats wanted in the first place. Unfortunately,
blacks became subservient and dependent, rather than free. The Democrats re-enslaved black people
with handouts. Black Americans sold their hard won freedom for food stamps and
housing subsidies, just as Esau sold his birthright for a bowl of pottage. This
biblical example about Esau sees “pottage” is something immediately attractive, but
of little value, taken foolishly and carelessly, in exchange for something more
distant and perhaps less tangible, but immensely more valuable. The phrase
alludes to Esau's sale of his birthright for a meal of lentil
stew ("pottage")
in Genesis 25:29–34 and connotes shortsightedness
and misplaced priorities.
THIS IS THE PREMISE THE LIBERALS SUPPORT:
Democratic voters
declare that property belonging to citizen "A" be confiscated by the
government, and given to Citizen "B," or maybe even to a non-citizen.
That is fundamen-tally wrong! Anyone who cannot see the violation of morality
in that scenario has a cor-rupt soul.
Also, “A government
that robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.” George
Bernard Shaw
So liberals
steal from some citizens, to buy votes from other citizens. This behavior is
just plain evil!
So now blacks
vote overwhelmingly for Democratic candidates.
Of course, it
would have been dramatically more effective and much less expensive to ensure
that blacks were fully equal and fully participating in our society. But that obvious
solution did not fit the desires of southern Democratic politicians. These
racists do not want black people to be free! They want black people to be beholden
to Democrats. And in modern times, the political tactics of liberal Democrats
have replaced those of the group of southern Democrats, and now almost all
Democrats are involved in oppressing black people by encouraging their
dependency.
"The
only thing you can give a man without hurting him is an opportunity." Henry Ford
A biography of Lynden B Johnson reports this quotation from 1964 which illustrates how Liberals and old school Democrats see the their victory in the war on poverty, “These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days, and that’s a problem for us, since they’ve got something now they never had before; the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. I’ll have those niggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.” —Lyndon B Johnson to two Southern governors on Air Force One.

Johnson’s and Obama’s “wars on poverty”
are frauds to keep people poor and dependent on the federal government. By
keeping blacks dependent on them, the Democrats “own” blacks, and keep them
doing their bidding, their work. This is the modern face of slavery, slavery being
something the Democrat party has always owned and has no intention of giving
up.
In the mad dash to vilify the Republicans and Conservatives today many have forgotten the fact that it was
the Republican Party that was the champion of Civil Rights and freedom for
African Americans. Today that story goes either untold or when it is told,
those that do so are immediately under attack, and accused of being a racist.
Many today would like you to believe that just because Conservatives would
rather assist in moving people off the rolls of welfare or any number of
assistance programs, we do not care about those that have been conditioned to be
dependent on those programs, and that is one of the most fatal mistakes that Progressives
make. Conservatives under-stand that people need assistance, but they also
understand that it cannot become a lifestyle, that is passed down from
generation to generation.
SO
WHAT HAPPENS TO PEOPLE ENSLAVED IN A SOCIETY OF DEPENDENCY?
We need to begin accepting
that there is an underclass of people who are racist, criminal, use more than
they produce, feed at the public trough, produce fatherless children, see
themselves as victims, use dangerous drugs, promote prostitution, whose speech
is full of vulgarities and reeks of ignorance, and who hate white Americans.
Gee, who could that class of people be? Do we have a name for them? Or is the
name unspeakable?
Quote from a psychology professor I
once had; “People are not who you think they are. People are not who they think
they are. People are what they do. That is why this is called the behavioral
science." Forget the labels; they are all misleading. By paying attention
to, and describing these people, regardless of their color, according to their behavior,
all the racist politics dissolve into the nothingness from which they came. The
word "racist" was invented by Democrats to buy votes. The social
pathology I describe below is not specific to any particular race, and could happen
to any ethnic group.
