[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]aren't white people kicking blacks out of inner cities?

the reason it was racist by paul ryan is because he later followed up with saying rural america has a problem too and then said it was due to a lack of jobs.

if he said inner cities and rural america faced the same challenges, then it would've been race neutral.

but he made city mouse out to be lazy and country mouse just out of luck. [/quote]

Exactly!!! The inner city black kids are lazy and don't want to or value work while the the Mississippi trailer welfare dad that likes to drink beer all day and molest his step daughter (white) is out of luck because XYZ manufacturing went away 20 years ago to China.  Yes I know there are non blacks in the inner city just like there are blacks in trailers, but let's be real here, we all speak that language and if your don't you're in denial.[/quote]

They're both out of luck but the issue is of what you do about that bad luck.  In those old broken down manufacturing communities anyone with a clue moved on to other towns with better prospects.  We have people sitting around whining that there's no jobs and no opportunities even as millions of illegal immigrants come all the way here from places like Honduras and El Salvador with nothing but the shirt on their back, who ARE able to find jobs in construction, in restaurants, et cetera.  And they are jobs that not only pay for food and a roof over their heads but also provide enough money for them to be able to send a big chunk of it home to their families in central America.  That's millions of jobs that were there for the taking for Americans - but Americans turned their noses up at them.  I had my share of hard times too, had to work 2 and 3 jobs at a time, went for stretches where I barely had $7 a week to put food on the table, had to move several times because I couldn't afford to live where I was or had to move because work was drying up, so the whining and excuse-making that I constantly hear is really just a bunch of pure crap to me.[/quote]
