My mother and father were white people. Yhey had sexual relations, and my fathers seed impregnated my mom. I was born in a hospital, mostly serving the white community in Wilmington, NC. My dad was in the navy, so in 12 years, I attended 13 schools.
I have learned much about people, while I learned Chaucer and Latin, biology and history. I learned of a countryrenched away from the poor "Indians" and settled by iron will. I live in WV these days, and here there is still an "independent" spirit. There is a love for privacy and "leave me the hell alone" attitude. Pickup trucks are a status symbol driven by black and white!
I learned about leaches, while I worked in the furniture business. I saw a perpetuated welfare community, four generations deep within gum't "projects" which is a euphemism for warehousing. The gum't gave them money for their kids. they got checks for the purchase of furniture, and diapers. they got food stamps for their several householdds, and barterd for booze and drugs. It hasn't changed much...
Curious as to where in WV you're at?
Page,when I said"your example"I didn't mean your personal bio!Hope thats not what you infered by my comments.
Well,I agree.There is a real sense of entitlement going on today and it goes beyond the ghetto underclass.Maybe an"only the strong survive"ethic needs to be implememted.Sink or swim and then see ya in the next life if you can't make it in this one.
