We’ve all heard the endless warnings coming from the Democrat Party, and it’s numerous front groups like the NAACP, and directed at blacks about the hazards, economically, socially and just about every other way, of living in one of those ‘red’ states. And, for the most part, blacks tend to go along with all the BS because, I dare say, to do otherwise would be to jeopardize their growing list of freebies. They’ve become addicted to the ‘benefits’ that the government so generously provides even to the detriment of their own community. Their lot in life is not my fault, and any sympathy I may have once thought they deserved, long ago simply evaporated.
Which brings me to one of the deepest of the “deep
blue” states, the state of Illinois. A state that just so happens to rank dead
last in racial equality, despite the fact that it is run nearly completely by
Democrats. This would be according to a recent study conducted by a personal
finance company by the name of WalletHub. And as I mentioned, WalletHub’s
findings come despite the ultra-“woke” policies of the state’s controlling
Democrats. This particular study looked at how blacks and whites are faring
economically in all 50 states by measuring poverty rates, homelessness,
employment, home ownership, household income, job status, and other metrics.
The resulting list did not break down along
red-and-blue state lines as other economic lists have tended to do. But the
study did show that a state with some of America’s most liberal, left-wing,
“woke” policies has failed miserably when trying to create the climate its
minority citizens need in order to find the opportunities for economic success.
The only other area of the entire country that fared worse than Illinois was
ultra-left District of Columbia, which came in in the 51st spot and is also
failing its minority population. Several other blue states also figured in the
top ten. None of this that should come as a surprise to anyone who’s the least
bit familiar with Democrats.
Illinois has a “progressive” income tax policy. It
has all manner of taxpayer funded set-asides for blacks, Hispanics, women, and
other supposedly disadvantaged groups. And it has endeavored to undermine its
criminal codes in order to release more people from its jails, it has a growing
list of handouts available for illegal immigrants, and, no surprise here, it’s Democrats
who control both houses of the state legislature and every single state-wide
office and it’s a Democrat who occupies the governor’s mansion. Illinois is
very proud of its many “equity” policies to help its minority citizens. Yet the
state is an incredible, crushing failure in achieving its own goals.
And as has been reported by numerous ‘news’ outlets,
recent numbers show that Illinois lost nearly 150,000 of its citizens to red
states, including Florida, Texas, and Tennessee. It has lost even more to
nearby states, such as Indiana, Wisconsin, Missouri, and Kentucky. And this net
loss of citizens has been ongoing for the better part of a decade. But look, in
the big scheme of things, the loss of a few of its citizens doesn’t seem to
have altered how Illinois Democrats run the state. Since the start of the “great
society” Democrats have promised MUCH and have delivered VERY LITTLE, other
than little more than lifelong poverty and dependence on government.
When you have a population that depends on the
crumbs of government you have a government that has control over that
population. Democrat policies always cause inequality, and yet people keep
voting for those who continually come up with new and improved of controlling
the populace. Democrats continue to destroy everything they come into contact
with, and Illinois is yet another example of what happens when you put
Democrats in charge. It’s right up there with California, New York and more
than just a few others. But Illinois, just like other blue states, is working
exactly as it is designed to. With rich white progressives riding roughshod over
the population.
Yep, all by design and exactly what the Democrat intend
for the rest of the country. Give the peasants a pittance not to work in order to
get their signature on the ballot. All the deep blue areas have large
populations of poor blacks who have not yet made the connection between deep
blueness and their long-term poverty. It has become crystal clear that the adoption
of, and adherence to, the disease known as progressivism/liberalism can only
lead to one end, equality of abject misery and the embarrassing enrichment of
those elites in power. While the connection seems very obvious to the rest of
us, blacks still seem to be uniquely unable to see it.
And if one of the most liberal states in the country
can’t figure this out by now, then it’s never going to get fixed. Doing the
same thing over and over again expecting a different result, never works. Blue
social and economic policies always backfire and do nothing but hurt those they
are supposedly intended to help. Look at LBJ’s “Great Society” and “War On
Poverty” programs and how they have made American inner cities absolute
shitholes. Democrat mayors and Democrat prosecutors funded by Democrat
billionaires who release violent criminals over and over to prey on innocent
citizens are violating minorities civil rights, proves who the real racists
are.
And so I can only assume that those in charge of
running the state will simply double down on more spending, regulating, and
discrimination against the producer class. After all, the failed Democrat
always seeks more of that which has caused his failure: progressivism. It’s
akin to a diabetic believing that the cure to his disease is more pasta, bread,
and bananas. When will normal, everyday people, regardless of skin color,
finally wake up? When will they come to realize that their vote for Democrats
always results in disasters? They hate the results, so they move to red states only
to spread their liberal disease until their new locale comes to resemble their
old.
The Democrats continually give all manner of
freebies to minorities in their attempt to effectively keep them firmly on the
plantation. The continually tell them that the deck is stacked against them so
there is no need to work or to try to better themselves. This has been the plan
since the days of LBJ and yet Democrats still get blacks to vote for them. Too
many want the free stuff instead of working, those who do work get taxed to
death to pay for all the free stuff. As long as taxes remain high many will
elect not to work, and the freeloaders will keep voting for those with self-respect
to work to pay ever higher taxes to support the free stuff. It’s a death
spiral.
Frankly no one should be surprised that one of the
most liberal states in the country is dead last in the ranking for racial
economic equality, and I truly doubt that anyone is. Democrats always talk a
good talk, but they never deliver and blacks, at their own peril, continue to believe
everything the Democrats, and their proxies, spoon-feed them regardless of
whether any of the bullshit ever comes true or not. And it’s likely only going
to get worse in Illinois. After all, the only way that a productive person can
survive the high taxes, bad schools, and high crime rates is to leave the
state. Hell, even Abraham Lincoln would have relocated to Florida, or maybe
Texas.
But at some point the malignant cancer cells become
too much of a burden on the otherwise healthy body. If you have too many
leeches relative to the number of blood cell producers the host dies, and then
the leeches die or flee. They have been reducing the number of productive taxpayers
and increasing the numbers living off taxpayers, and you don’t have to be Einstein
to understand that law of relativity. I suppose it’s nothing more than a crazy pipedream
on my part that minorities will come to realize that their faithfulness to the
Democrats has not been, and will never be, rewarded with a better life. They
are being kept down, controlled, and fooled.
But it seems that as long
as the freebies continue, so will their allegiance to a political party that
couldn’t care less if they live or die. Democrats simply use people of color to
stay in power, while making promises of utopia, and yet. And as had been said
many times before by people much smarter than myself, a government big enough
to give you all that you want, is a government big enough to take all you have.
And finally, how about we just forget racial equality crap, white folks need to
seize control of America and work to take it back to the days when it both was prosperous
and united. When all one had to do to become successful, regardless of one’s
skin color, was to work hard.
