We Must Keep Marching Toward MLK’s Dream

What I don’t understand is why he’s bringing up race – implying that trickle down economics work for White people.

For a while Boomers were on corporate welfare but now that’s fallen apart.

These days trickle down economics are just a complete failure.

Biden is all talk though.

If he actually did something about trickle down economics, don’t you think I would be singing his praise instead of blaming him for standing in the way of people like Yang and Sanders?

Wage slavery is much a problem for White people as it is for Black people.

The reason people don’t post dissident politics is because of wage slavery and the fear of losing jobs if your real name is revealed.

If you took away this fear, a lot more Whites would express paleocon views on social issues.

Washington Post:

Sixty years ago, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and hundreds of thousands of fellow Americans marched on Washington for jobs and freedom. In describing his dream for us all, Dr. King spoke of redeeming the “promissory note to which every American was to fall heir” derived from the very idea of America — we are all created equal and deserve to be treated equally throughout our lives. While we’ve never fully lived up to that promise as a nation, we have never fully walked away from it, either. Each day of the Biden-Harris administration, we continue the march forward.

That includes a fundamental break with trickle-down economics that promised prosperity but failed America, especially Black Americans, over the past several decades. Trickle-down economics holds that taxes should be cut for the wealthiest Americans and biggest corporations, that public investments in priorities such as education, infrastructure and health care should be shrunk, and good jobs shipped overseas. It has exacerbated inequality and systemic barriers that make it harder for Black Americans to start a business, own a home, send their children to school and retire with dignity.

Vice President Harris and I came into office determined to change the economic direction of the country and grow the economy from the middle out and bottom up, not the top down. Our plan — Bidenomics — is working. …

Equality or Equity. Take your pick. They are mutually exclusive.

I’d keep marching in that direction if the left really cared about content of character.

We “celebrate” MLK, but our policies follow the Black Panthers.

No what we need to do is reclaim our heritage, culture and nation

Yep, I remember yesterday, on a thread about Martin Luther King, I learned we aren’t allowed to say anything favorable about him on Free Republic.
