Good income, status and self-actualization, independence, and a strong feeling of self-will and control of destiny.
Exactly.
Because it sure helped the GOP candidate in Alabama, didn't it?
Dems about to have a collective stroke! What are they going to do now? They have deliberately kept Blacks down and told them that Whitey is why they are poor and that they should vote dem and the dems will help them.
But how to explain what happened in Alobama?

I suspect Rush is talking about a trend, not an isolated case.
Even Bill Clinton understood the phrase “it is the economy, stupid”
Fair enough. When's the trend going to start?
It wont matter...
Black unemployment figures are as phony, or phonier, than white unemployment figures.
The unemployment figure is a ratio of those not working to those defined as eligible and trying to work. Those who are discouraged or uninterested in working are not counted in the ratio.
That’s why there are unemployment ratios like U-3 and U-6 (which is much higher).
So, it’s not as good, or at least as descriptive, as it sounds. In particular, if more blacks percentagewise are unavailable for work than whites, the ratio is skewed.
I don’t think the typical black voter believes that the black unemployment rate is important. Further, I don’t know why any conservative would believe they would.
Bttt.

I thought it had become widely accepted among conservatives that numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics are flawed because they don’t include people who have dropped out of he work force. Is there any reason to believe these numbers truly show actual unemployment numbers now?
They’re not going to appreciate it. They still hate Trump and they’re always going to be a socialist voting bloc.
1. Unemployed Adult population / Adult population = Unemployment rate
2. (Unemployed population + government employees) / Adult population= Wagon Rider Rate
3. Non Gov Employed Adults / Adult population = Wagon Pulling Rate
The rest of the measures are political spin
They’ll just give the credit to Obama.
Character assassination ... that's what happened.
I agree that your definition is the correct one.
The government stats exclude many of the Riders.
Amen.
This type of news doesn’t matter. In fact the narrative will be something like, it just proves as whitey gets richer they have to hire more blacks to work for minimum wage.
Population - 326,000,000
Adults = 248,000,000
Private business employees = 124,000,000
US Census estimates. That 124mil number probably has a significant amount of government related employees, NGOs, etc.
