Strikeout: Stop making excuses. The kids in the back have just as good a chance as the kids in front.
CCCP: It is a culture issue. The kids in the back just need to work hard to succeed. Also there are some white people in back and blacks in front-NOT race. Keep America Great!
Tang, you are becoming a lost cause. You will never help The indigent because you will constantly make excuses for them instead of being proactive and finding solutions. Until you grow up and stop making excuses, you might as well give up on your causes because you only make the situation worse. A true winner faces adversity with solutions. A loser blames everyone else. If you really want to make a difference, read "7 habits of highly effective people." It will change your whole outlook and you will finally start doing something productive instead of ******** all the time. GROW UP, man. You're not a kid anymore. Life comes with challenges. How will you respond?
Would you agree that there is a difference between making excuses and saying that some people have an advantage? I already listed out some solutions, but we must agree on simple facts and the fact that we NEED change to come up with solutions.

Let's say the situation in the video is true to life. Let's say the kids in the back lose, even though they try as best they can. Would you say that those kids are 'losers' and that everyone who states that those kids are at a disadvantage are making excuses for them? It makes more sense to say that those kids are at a disadvantage, so we should help them find solutions to have a fair fight.

I will look into your book, but to the accusation that I am not productive and doing things, well, you are incorrect. Just today I helped out with a poverty simulation to spread awareness, and my father and I have helped hundreds of people get out of poverty through the organization we work with. Here are some other things the government can do:
1. Equalize school funding.
2. Invest in local poverty solutions.
3. Reduce the effect of redlining by desegregating schools, making housing affordable, and opening up communities.
4. Better police accountability by requiring body cameras, and unbiased judicial system.
5. Better and more public defenders.
6. Don't criminalize drugs as much/target black neighborhoods.
7. Break the school to prison pipeline?
8. Prison system reform encouraging rehabilitation, ESPECIALLY for drug offenses.
9. Stop voter ID laws.

But, just for kicks and giggles, lets go through your list.

1. You can equalize funding, but funding isn't the problem. I've already showed you that even in poor schools, the students are still provided for.
2. It's not the governments job to invest in poverty solutions. That should come from the private sector. It's the governments job to have enough funds to run a government.
3. How do you make housing affordable? More subsidies? More handouts? The housing market is what it is. Sometimes it's expensive and sometimes prices are low.
4 - 7. Skipping this for now. More blacks are prosecuted. That's a fact. I don't know if it's because they commit more crimes or because they are unfairly targeted. I don't have enough knowledge of this and neither do you.
8. I'm okay with that.
9. This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. You should have to prove you are who you say you are when vote. It's not hard to go to the DMV and get an ID.

8. Great.
9. Voter ID has no point and is discriminatory against black people. It basically never actually does its job.

3/18/2018 6:28 PM
Echoing Dino, yes, thanks for your service and compassion. I will still bust your balls for excuse making all day long because it's counterproductive. I want to see you succeed.
3/18/2018 6:30 PM
My posts at you are not intended to be offensive. I'm pushing you to think critically.
3/18/2018 6:31 PM
There's an old adage in baseball that says "worry about the things you can control."

People in poverty can only control their personal situation. If people blame factors that are out of their control, they will never succeed.

Things they can control:

1. Education
2. Not having kids out of wedlock
3. Money management (I lived on $2,000/month with a wife and newborn baby, it sucked but it's possible. We did not take any government assistance. We lived extremely tight and all the bills were paid)

Like I said, people in poverty can say, I'm at a disadvantage and give up or they can fight. Are you a winner or loser?
3/18/2018 6:38 PM
anyone who is doing so much to help others succeed is thinking very well.......on the day when you transform into an elderly and poor african america person who might have medical issues you will see the purpose of the hard to get voter id and who is pushing for it and why.
3/18/2018 6:41 PM
Also, it's a fact that more minorities are in poverty, but the struggles they face see no race. I live in a town that is 80% white. It's dirt poor. The same mistakes that keep the cycle going are made here that are made in Lithonia, Ga which is 80% black/Hispanic which leads me to believe that CCCP is correct in that poverty is not a race issue.

I'm not buying it. It's not hard to get an ID. Same question that I asked Tang, how would you ensure that the correct person is voting? I'm open to other ideas, but having an election without some way of guaranteeing the correct person is voting is foolish.
3/18/2018 6:44 PM
some states have voter id laws that create great difficulty complying......it disproportionately effects minorities in certain areas......thats a fact ..jack.
3/18/2018 6:47 PM
So, what is your solution in place of voter ID laws? Are you okay with just showing up at the ballot box, saying "I'm Joe Smith" and then voting with no proof that you're really Joe Smith?

9. Voter ID has caught about 7 cases of actual fraud. 25% of black people cannot acquire voter ID for some reason or another.
