That’s ok. I’m sure they use their free time to do other productive activities.

Or at least an electorate that doesn't abort, murder and incarcerate itself into irrelevance.
If it weren't for the violence threat, which is rapidly being countered by liberalized concealed carry laws, people wouldn't stand for the "racism" blackmail anymore.

The left has been in control long enough to change this situation - if it wanted to. It doesn’t. It deliberately created an unhappy underclass and turned it against another segment of the country. It told the underclass that it wasn’t responsible for its self-inflicted pathologies, and that another segment of the country is responsible.
The left wants it this way.

Reagan was a man who knew how to reach out without selling out and it worked.

If they want good pay and are willing to work and I do mean WORK, the oil patch is hiring and they don't ask a lot of fool questions.

It deliberately created an unhappy underclass and turned it against another segment of the country.
Which is exactly why the schools won't teach any black American history other than slavery. If blacks understood how big a role both free and slave alike played in building America, they might just replace some of that resentment with pride.

Somehow your math is wrong. 50 Years ago would be 1963 a full 18 years after WW11. Or were you trying to make a point that I missed.
To: Innovative
Which is why they resort to crime.

All the entry level jobs have become career paths for illegal aliens. Why hire a teenager who will expect a promotion in a year when you can hire an illegal alien who will work for minimum wage for a decade and never expect more?

This will be why they riot. Treyvon just gave the Democrats some cover. The press will blame the whites when the real cause is Democrat policies.

He also decreed that man should earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. Who is supporting all this fruitfulness?

I hope they are all happy that they voted for Obama..I agree. He will give them more freebies than they could ever afford with a minimum wage job.
Why would they want a regular job. Now, under the table work, I'm sure a lot of them can find some of that.

Sorry to contradict you, but your frame of reference has slipped.
2013 minus 50 = 1963.
So we need to think about what happened in 1963...
