Can you name the time when the U.S. government ever was out there trying to help black folks get ahead because the root word of Capitalism is capitalize and the true nature of a capitalist is not helping people but rather capitalizing off of them to make money? But we were sold the bill of goods that the power is in being a consumer, and there lies the real problem.
 
As long as they're not scamming other poor people is how I normally look at it. IDGAF if you taking from Wawa or Walmart, but don't be jamming the other poor people in the parking lot.
Yeah, I never want them to scam other poor people. Because if anybody gonna go that route, they should target those big businesses and government.

So you want big businesses and the government to target businesses and the government?
That's not how it works..... That's not how any of this works....

I know a lot of people who were scamming that COVID-19 relief stimulus plan at the time and while they didn't get millions like the ones who got caught but they was able to get away with it getting thousands.

Smart people saw it as a honey trap, not so smart people saw it as free honey. That's all I will say on that subject.
 
Well the rich need their tax breaks more than the poor and less well off need their programs/opportunities.
 
They're eliminating Job Corps, destroying the Pell Grant program, getting rid of virtually all low-income student aid for medical/grad programs all while they're expanding police immunity and eliminating President Biden's restrictions from the federal government doing business with private prisons. Anybody who doesn't see where this is going is purposely closing their eyes to reality. But then again, both parties are just the same, right?
Yes, they are,

If the democrats would have done a bit more, we wouldn't be in this situation, but they didn't.

All they needed to do was help us more, enforce more regulation, help us get more opportunity, restrict racism, free speech but they choose to sing and dance church songs, so this is the result. America and the love for philanthropic ideologies of "helping" people without actually helping got them here. A poor man is a lot louder than a rich man vocally so they need and should have done much more.

Specifically for black folks which are the biggest supporters, but they choose speeches and podcasts and conversations, they FAFO... now the poor Cacs come in and showed them how real power works, no sugarcoating, no feelings, speeches, prayers they just make moves and who it is, it is.

They see nothing wrong with it, they see family, this is why it's a great time to have a wife and family structure.

Whatever they do is going to destroy us specifically because we lack the structure.

And when we complain they'll bring up the structure.

Alot of poor white kids are done out here, trust me.

The role of the good cop isn't helping the person that's underarrest.

We as a people don't lack structure. Where the fuck did you get that crazy ass idea from? We are resourceful and resilient. We are survivors.

I've had conversations with kids who think they're going to be billionaires. Our entire mentality needs to be reset.

They don't really care about us. And the “us” with jobs right now need to do what is right.

God ain't gonna save us. He didn't save the Caribs or the Arawaks. He ain't gonna save the Palestinians either. He stands by us as guns are pointed at us.
 
I was thinking this. So many go to Job Corps because they're homeless or come from abusive homes.
Yeah, job corps used to give us free work boots and clothes. We also used to get a check to shop for some clothes at forman mills which was up the street from job corps on 46th & Market.

A lot of homeless people went to job corps to learn a trade that couldn't afford college and got jobs after they graduate getting paid well.

Trump out there trying to fuck everyone's lives up shutting down everything that helps people.

Every young person thinks they are going to be rich. Life hasnt beat them down yet.
 
trump is making sure that black people get fucked, any way that he can do it. They hate us and they're pulling out all of the stops to see that we don't get help for anything!

This administration hates and despises us, and they are experts at making this fuckery appear like "normal" procedures, smmfh.

True.

But this hurts Whites more than Blacks.

When I went into the ARMY back in the 80s, a large majority of the White Boyz in my Basic Training unit came from Job Corps.

They need to block more shit trump trying to shutdown.

I wished they impeached that Orange man..
 
Youre not saying nothing new that hasn’t been discussed b4 on here a billion times.. I’m trying to figure out out how you gonna get out of trying to convince people putting thousands of youth on the street with no shelter and no skills as a good thing for the community
Cause youth with NOTHING to do and no money is ALWAYS a good idea!!!!

If you drive 1 minute from the Tobago airport you're going to see folks that the country has intentionally forgotten. If you go to Scarborough, at our old store, you see folks that the government has forgotten. However sad that is, the reality is there are more men as you drive into the little towns. Joblessness in Riseland, Bethel, all the way to Whim, and that's just on my side. There's joblessness on the Leeward side too. Its a testament to the upbringing of those young men and women that those folks didn't end up like the black folks in Trinidad.

That's the problem. You have people who believe one day they'll be a millionaire/billionaire. So they're ok with tax policies and so forth favoring the rich. You have business owners who favor tax policies for the rich believing they will benefit. Meanwhile companies/individuals classified as small businesses are multi millionaire/billionaire businesses receiving most of the benefits. Because that who the policies are really set up for.
As you state our entire mentality needs to be reset.

It's designed this way.
 
I began my mental health career as a Counselor at Job Corps. While the program is not perfect and has many challenges, the young people I was able to see thrive when all other avenues had failed them were astounding. It wasn't just underprivileged; there were students who wanted to join the military and didn't have the high school credentials, who were able to serve because of the advantages (ASVAB) that Job Corps afforded them. This is quite disappointing.

I'll be in the basement.............

The Republicans and Democrats are on the same team, but most of us don't know it.
