Slaves were brought here and forced to work. Upon being granted freedom, naturally, they did not want to work. In fact, many went to DC looking for “Mr. Lincoln” thinking he was going to care for them. As it turned out they ended up having to work just as hard if not harder to survive as sharecroppers or field hands. Once the government came in and started handing out welfare checks they saw it as an opportunity to never HAVE to work again. And that attitude has been passed down through the generations.

Not wanting to use a broad brush, there were those who moved North so they could find work with decent pay.

Therein lies the rub. He’s assuming that people actually want to work. Why in the world would you want to work when you’re getting a 3k a month crazy check from the gov with all healthcare and education paid for?
