I don’t own a Tesla but I think the 1964 Civil Rights Act was ok. What destroyed the black family structure in America was Johnson’s Great Society programs passed in 1965 that had nothing to do with Civil Rights. The Great Society nationalized welfare programs. Johnson’s supposed war on poverty which sent billions now trillions to Washington that established a welfare trap for poorer people and fueled corrupt politicians and government hanger ones with spectacular graft.

The irony is that in 1957, the Eisenhower administration sent a bill to congress that would have done the same thing as the 1964 act. Lyndon Johnson was majority leader of the Senate then and did all he could to gut that bill.
