The problem seems to be that the politicians think all americans are black.
I think that politicians, and their financial backers, think that America is ripe for the picking as a socialist oligarchy. You’re really close to the mark, because blacks used to represent the labor force democrats and their backers wanted, which is indentured servitude, or sharecroppers and renters indebted to their masters. The fate of many, controlled by the hands
of the few, is the slogan of the government now, democrats AND republicans included.
