Yes, but my point is: why should other people have to care? You're trying to make the point that many people just want them to stop causing trouble and don't really care about their future or whatever. Sure, many don't care, but many do care. There's no way you can know who is or isn't.
But again my point there's been trillions spent trying to improve the lives of these people. It's not up to the millions of other Americans of whatever color to "care" about these people like they would their own families.
Lack of care or concern from other people is not ghetto residents' worst problem. The problem is with themselves. If they cared more about improving themselves, other people might care more for them.
“It’s not up to the millions of other Americans of whatever color to “care” about these people like they would their own families.”
You are being honest in that statement. That is what honest folks should be saying. The rhetoric that bothers me is the false piety to the tune that, “cutting off their welfare will make them get a job and improve their lives.” This won’t make anyone’s life “better” except those that will have to possibly pay less tax to support them. Or those in political groups other than the DEMS that have the ghetto vote shored up by the DEMS largess at the expense of all. The DEMS are indeed buying votes.
I am not defending the poor in inner cities or elsewhere that have no desire to work when they can live off the federal and local welfare systems. However, I will not defend fellow conservatives that use false rhetoric about “improving lives” to defund them either. Of course, as you point out, there are those that say this and truly believe it to be true.
I do not know what the solution is. I just want fellow conservatives to be honest.
