Robert Reich blames racism for Democrats giving black people dirty water
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | Zachary Faria

Posted on 09/09/2022 7:52:25 PM PDT by lowbridge

Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich blames decades of racism for the water crises in Jackson, Mississippi; Flint, Michigan; and West Baltimore, Maryland. I wonder, what do the leaders of those three cities all have in common?

Reich declared that the “legacy of segregation” and “decades and decades of racism and neglect” have led to water crises in all three cities. Racism, the nameless, faceless specter that simply looms over the city, is responsible for all of these troubles, according to Reich. There is simply nothing that can be done, apparently.

Does anyone really care what Robert Reich thinks, says, or does?

The dirty water issue brought up by Reich dwarfs the slavery issue.

It's not Small Potatoes.

It's a Little more like something the Lollipop Guild would be concerned with.

Why doesn’t the Big Socialist just hand over all of his wealth to the Feds or to his local ‘Rat gov’t for redistribution?

Reich "I wonder, what do the leaders of those three cities all have in common?"

Hmmmm? Oh, I know. They leaders of those cities are all black Democrats. It's like a light-bulb went off in my head!

People vote with their feet. When the local government is unable or unwilling to provide the services their taxes pay for they leave.

California is starting to see the effects of corrupt, inept governance as many head to Texas and Tennessee.

Reich will blame racism for California’s collapse?

Do those cities have a separate water system to pipe clean water to the homes of white people? How does that work?

That would mean Democrats are Racist, because they are the ones controlling the water going to their constituents.

Its like blaming George Bush for levees breaking on unnecessary, open waterways in Democrat run New Orleans.

You are there Democrats. Why didn’t you fix it?

Perpetual Victims don’t make good leaders. Vote for me, I’ll blame everyone else.

Good thing for Democrats their voters are as dumb as their politicains.

Someone set me this

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/nations-poorest-state-used-welfare-money-pay-brett-favre-speeches-neve-rcna45871

and this:
Jackson asked the state for 40M, the state sent 3M after a major flood that damaged the sole treatment plant. This is why they wont elect the GOP. Its because any party capable of doing their own citizens like this is unfit and so is their party

#7: "Sounds like Bob is a Little concerned."

His short list of talking points just don't measure up.

He’s right. Look at Jackson Mississippi. Look at the mayor of Jackson, the city Council and the entire population. Racism resulted in their dirty water.

Democratic racism.

Squandered it was.

He reminds of the character Dr. Miguelito Loveless, an mad scientist dwarf , from the tv show Wild Wild West.

Reich however, is stupid, evil dwarf.
