I used to spend a lot of time thinking about solutions and I could never really come up with anything other than a slow weaning of the welfare class off of welfare over a generation or so.

We literally have several generations of welfare/ghetto culture who are fundamentally unable and unwilling to live independent functional lives in todays world.

They lack even the basic desire/ability to show up for a job on a daily basis, much less do anything productive.

I came up the hard way and though I'd try to give something back to society and try to change the world. After a few years of frustration, heartbreak and tears (literally) I figured out that that particular world did not want to be changed, least of all by me. What it did want was the rest of society to fund and support it's dysfunctional lifestyle.

Sad, but true.

We obviously need more rap and hip hop “artists.” Now, that’s something that will carry blacks forward. (Wha’s the bitches and hoes?) And what’s with the loud audio systems that wake up my ninety year old mom from a block away? These bastards literally rattle her house. The new credo of black youth - “vexo. ergo sum!” - I annoy, therefore I am.

Very sad and that is pretty heart braking when you swear you will make a difference and you can’t. You had an entire culture against you. It is very difficult to change a culture dynamically. You can’t exert external pressure on a culture. Cultures just evolve when conditions change. We need to change the conditions that will change the culture.

I don’t know how to do that. We can take away welfare and make people more desperate to motivat them, but how do we repair the nuclear family that has been destroyed. That has me stumped.

I really feel sorry for Ghetto people. They didn’t ask to be there. I wouldn’t want to have to face those odds. At the same time, it makes me mad and frustrated that they generally surrender to it without even trying to get out and work.

Brutal. I’m stumped at a solution but whatever it is, it needs all of society to help. As long as the Dems want to simply buy off the ghetto people with trinkets to keep them enslaved, nothing is going to change.
