The argument is that THE PROBLEM is throwing money at things does not work unless it’s about politics, prison and wars, so to solve this Baltimore problem African American men need to PULL UP THEIR PANTS. Well as the great Black comedian and knockout rapist Bill Cosby tells us. Oh and Ben Carson, the silliest Black presidential candidate since Alan Keyes and Herman Cain, says rap music is to blame.
Just throwing money at inner city schools only works until they get on par with white schools, though Republicans will not even even admit to the ON PAR part of that.
What Republicans refuse to address is what is really needed is to throw much more money at teacher pay, Pre School programs, after school programs, building grocery stores to replace liquor stores, police training, infrastructure, job creation and most of all to throw enough money into entitlements so that the 30% of unemployed black men can at least exist without having to turn to crime.
All of which Republicans not only refuse to do but loudly and proudly take as much what little there is in all of that away. All under the code words, NO NEW TAXES, SOCIALISM, DON’T TREAD ON ME, ENTITLEMENTS, NANNY STATE and of course the elephant in the room that more than any other single factor defines American politics…
