Should have picked our own *bleeping* cotton.
you need to learn a few things. I’m old enough to remember times before LBJ. I grew up in a blue collar inner city neighborhood that was half white and half black. Racial discrimination was a real thing back then and I was in the North where it was not as oppressive as the South. But, most black families lived and worked just like most white families. They had mothers and fathers in the house. The black kids were no more likely to be criminals than white kids. My house didn’t even have a lock on the front door.
All that changed with that Texas SOB Johnson and his “Great Society”. Back then, at least in the North, blacks were as likely to vote Republican as Democrat. Johnson changed that by exploding the welfare roles but insisting that any woman could get a monthly check as long as no man was involved. He wanted them locked into his welfare system. Here we are, 60 years later, with over 70% of black births to single mothers, and white births something like 20% out of wedlock.
Yep… blacks started voting for Democrats while their society and family structure was destroyed. Johnson knew exactly what he was doing. He was warned, but he did it anyway. LBJ has my vote for the most evil president we’ve ever had.
