    LMAO. Not a very flattering article - only difference between he and Pete is that Trump has money. At least on paper.

    Oh great, another white house staffer, working in the basement, shilling for Hillary. Bomb throwing "racists" charges against the man that will change the race problems in this country forever. Once the uninformed blacks find out that the race pimps that they vote for have kept them down in that soft bigotry of low expectations for decades then they will turn and devour the Democrats. I can see it coming, why can't you? Blacks are wising up. Calling republicans racist is just a low effect tactic used to impress the uninformed voter. It works too. This drop in on a forum and call Trump a racist is nothing but a form of propaganda that effects very few, but still a few that will vote. Funny that it is the Democrats historically that have been the racists all along. It's even funnier that the blacks have been suckered by them too. Seeing the purposeful exploitation of a major minority in our country for the past 65 years has brought us to this moment in history. Just how vengeful will these people get when they find out who has been keeping them on the plantation. The Washington poverty pimps inside the beltway are just desperately trying to hang on to their power over others. This clown of an obvious tool is just bottom feeding for suckers. Don't be a JAMF.

    Allowing welfare to be a neverending pipeline of money for individuals gives them no incentive to do anything with their life.
    Put lifetime limits on welfare.....and see how fast people get incentive to work. Make the payments decline year after year......and see how incentive sets in.

    Also when I was young out of college, I couldnt afford to live by myself so I lived with 2 other roomates till I could get a better paying job....or get a promotion. I had great incentive to get my own place...I didnt enjoy sleeping in the living room on a pull out couch.

    How come welfare people arent asked to do the same?????????? Why do they get their own apartment. If they are made to have roomies then what better incentive to get off their ass.

    And oh by the way.....if they think the DEMS are going to raise minimum wage so that they have incentive to get off their ass and get off welfare....think again.
    When companies are forced to pay more......then they EXPECT more....they EXPECT greater productivity. So they will not hire people who have been sitting on their asses for 5-10 years. Companies will only hire those that have experience and are highly productive.

    In fact business will cut manpower and expect the people that remain to be highly productive and do more with less supportive help of their fellow employees...as well as use more technology to replace humans. The humans that remain will have high expectations placed on them.

    The black community will eventually figure out that the DEMS have been enablers of the misery that they cry about.

    I just want to point out, in keeping with gizmo's disgust with Math Nazis, that the two posts above have not one shred of objective statistical evidence of any kind. Not any solid evidence regarding calories burned correlating with income, or historical correlations between parties and work rates, or roommate percentages based on income, or anything.

    They are opinions based on beliefs or anecdotal experiences, which are about as helpful as the last 20 spins on the roulette wheel in term sof analyzing anything.

    I don't necessarily disagree with them in any way, but if I agree, it's my opinion based on nothing but my opinion, and I recognize that. Why waste people's time yapping about my personal opinion regarding this or that?

    So?

    I do have a shred of evidence for your pipe to smoke. You hear people complain about "White Advantage." I'll give you white advantage right now. White people don't care if they try to succeed and fail the first or even second time. They just keep trying until they do succeed. But a lot of black people that try to succeed are ostracized by their peers for failing. A black man today has to get up and get off the plantation on the first try or they will be labeled an "Uncle Tom." That's powerful enough to stop a lot of good people before they even try. You add regulations and high taxes to pay for socialism and over reaching of the 8% of our nation's public sector workers, that have much higher wages and pensions than the private sector equivalent workers and you have opportunity almost stopped in its track. The American dream of business ownership is under attack. I don't see anything changing as long as the same Washington insiders keep rigging the game.

    I steer clear of people who are expert in math, programming, cultural relations, and the nuances of ethnic differences, all with the same declarative gusto.

    Too smart for my blood.

    WELL IF PEOPLE WERE EDUCATED ON THE TOPICS THEY WOULD NOT LET POLITICIANS FUCK THEM.
    I am in retail for 35 years and know what happens when wages go up. What I said is 100 percent true. Walmart already is dumping their in store book keepers who where highly paid compared to the rest of the store. THey replace them with automated systems.Just like mcdonalds is going toward eliminating cashiers, with self ordering.on a tocuh screen.

    If people read about obamacare from people in the industry.....they wouldnt be surprised hoe fucked they are right now. They dont even know the half of how they are so screwed. I said this was going to happen. People more in the public eyes said so......but for people who were looking for a document with absolute proof of what the future held......that doest happen in real life

    The point of my original post here was to highlight the irony of the quote shown, nothing more nothing less.

    Do you know what a hit piece is from a journalist at the New York Times with an obvious agenda? If fifty hacks say "Donald Trump is a racist." Then the next ten hacks start claiming that Donald Trump is an accused racist. Funny how propaganda creates and supports itself don't you think? That's all this is. It's just a jerk at the Times earning his pay check. This is common at election time. You are supposed to lie to the people you know you can influence by lying to them. It's part and parcel of the craft. Being a gullible dumbshit is a part in all this too.

    Hilary has continually supported a man who has been accused of rape. At times she has bashed the accusers.

    http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jan/14/hillary-clinton-haunted-by-efforts-to-destroy-bill/

    "Campaign narratives written by reporters detailed how she honchoed the campaign team that handled “bimbo eruptions,” digging up personal papers and official records that could be used to undercut the stories told by a series of women. One top aide later recounted Mrs. Clinton’s intent to “destroy” the story of one accuser, while former adviser Dick Morris said Mrs. Clinton engaged in “blackmail” to try to force women to recant their stories."

    Good old Betsey Wright, Hillary's paid stooge.

    Here's some more on the evil bastards:
    http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/11/23/the-secret-sex-abuse-victims-of-bill-clinton/

    "Bill Clinton is in a similar situation. The public knows all about Clinton’s alleged rape of Juanita Broaddrick from her tearful account on national TV in 1999. They also know that a red-faced Clinton allegedly exposed himself to Paula Jones in May 1991, and asked her to “kiss” his erection. What many people do not know is that when this became public in 1993, all Paula Jones wanted was an apology from Clinton and not a penny. Clinton’s response was that he did not even know her. Later in 1998, Clinton ended up paying Paula Jones a whopping $850,000 for his behavior, which was compounded by his lying."
