As a conservative I believe in free will and the individuals’ liberty/responsibility to make correct choices in life.

Thus, when you reference something “forcing” ghetto people into the right choices, it kinda turns my stomach a bit.

Their ability to make the right choices, as a life path, should be determined by their parents when they raise their kids right.

Oh wait, I think we’ve just hit upon the crux of the problem!

First two steps....(1)law and order in those neighborhoods and (2) jobs, not handouts
