[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm just vastly amused that in a place like DC, where so many of your jobs are completely dependant upon the public teat in one form or another, there are crazy racists who like to post about black people and their government jobs being like welfare. I mean, I have to be amused, because otherwise I'd cry. [/quote] I think you are taking it a little far, and attacking a straw man at this point. There are many people in DC govt who merit their positions and are providing valuable services, competently and honestly. And then there are the others who don't meet that standard.[b] It is widely acknowldged that previous admins, particularly Barry, did use the govt as a form of employment program for unqualified people, what you call welfare. [/b]And, there was quite a lot of corruption, some of which continues. We are still dealing with the negative consequences. This is widely documented, including in traditionally liberal and sympathetic publications such as the Washington Post. But if you prefer to race-bait and ignore facts, I can't stop you. Back to the topic at hand, there are those who think that residency cheating is wrong. There are others who apparently see it as a kind of distributive justice, or even reparations as one poster put it. This line of thinking seems to me to be underpinned by the same philosophy that motivated Barry's employment efforts. It is just as flawed now as it was back then. [/quote] [b]Acknowledged by whom?[/b] People like you who only thinks the worst about Black people. People like you who think that most, if not all, middle class blacks rose up through the ranks by corruption. [/quote]
