welfare today=communism

The left sold it as compassion and then moved right into marxism... you are a racist if you see the truth and speak the truth.

> welfare today=communism
Actually “welfare today” is the leftover (and very bloated) remnants of the Freedmen’s Bureau that was established at the end of the Civil War. Freed slaves began migrating North by the thousands and didn’t have jobs, housing or any means of feeding themselves. The Freedmen’s Bureau was established to serve the needs of these recently freed people. When the federal government closed the Freedmen’s Bureau in 1871, the states took over the welfare tasks and have been at it and expanding it ever since.
