Black Americans, the GI bill, inequality/poverty and crime.

Low income housing has been around for ever.
Food stamps have been around for ever.
Free tuition to colleges has been around for ever.
Obamacare is here.

Yet the same folks have the same problems. :oops:

Eventually you have to go the extra mile for YOURSELF instead of waiting for someone to help you.

Put those hands to work instead of holding them out palm up.

In regards to criminal records. You want a clean record? Don’t break the fucking law!!!;)

Very well said. I'm just an average layperson but I like to consider myself acutely observant. I'm not black but I'm only about 30-40% white. I find it painfully obvious that many blacks simply refuse to assimilate into western society. And when you continue to refuse to adapt you are met with constant resistance and problems.

I follow Candace Owens on youtube and social media. She's a black conservative woman and I adore her. She is staunchly against the whole black plantation victimhood mentality that is very strong in the black community. She says things that I've always believed and knew but can't get away with saying since I'm not black. Such as when a black person chooses to go to college to better him/herself, other black family members and friends will dismissively ask, "Why you tryin' to be white!?" In other words it's bombardment with peer pressure to not step up and improve one's self.

I see a lot of successful black people in America. I think of all the successful talented blacks in the entertainment industry. Look at all the singers, actors and professional athletes who are black who dominate these fields. Did they get to where they're at by guilting whites and holding onto their victim status? They worked their asses off. Yet, what most people want us to focus on are the blacks who got shot and killed by police. And in the majority of those instances cops were met with violent, and sometimes fatal, resistance. Not in a million years would I feel entitled to resist an arrest from a police officer and make it out alive or unharmed. I cooperate 100%.
 
I will preface with MY own conclusions before citing history. Although I am a conservative in many regards, I find the denial of historically recent racism to be delusional on the part of "the right". Although the democrats have traditionally in recent history done more to keep the black community in poverty. The correlation of income inequality and crime has been well studied and documented and a quick Google search for more articles can back these assertions.

This is but one example.

The Jim Crow laws that were in effect at the end of World war II directly deprived black veterans and the black community of 1 BILLION dollars of GDP at THAT time (1966 for argument sakes). The implications of that STILL have a major impact on today! That is adjusted for inflation
$7,913,395,061.73

Although non of us today have anything to do with it and should not feel guilt whatsoever! This doesn't change the long term repercussion felt here and now.

While the white veterans prospered (rightly so) the same black veterans who went through the same hell were hung out to dry when they returned. The income gap created by this will be felt for years to come with no solution on the table.

Maybe that's why the flag and thes concepts of freedom we have, mean another thing to the black community.

As opposed to touting narratives and following party lines, maybe we should all shut the fuck up, listen and find solutions!



African American veterans benefited less than others from the G.I. Bill.

The G.I. Bill aimed to help American World War II veterans adjust to civilian life by providing them with benefits including low-cost mortgages, low-interest loans and financial support. African Americans did not benefit nearly as much as White Americans. Historian Ira Katznelson argues that "the law was deliberately designed to accommodate Jim Crow".[1] In the New York and northern New Jersey suburbs 67,000 mortgages were insured by the G.I. Bill, but fewer than 100 were taken out by non-whites.[2][3]

Additionally, banks and mortgage agencies refused loans to blacks, making the G.I. Bill even less effective for blacks.[4] Once they returned from the war, blacks faced discrimination and poverty, which represented a barrier to harnessing the benefits of the G.I. Bill, because labor and income were immediately needed at home.

Most southern university principals refused to admit blacks until the Civil Rights revolution. Segregation was legally mandated in that region. Colleges accepting blacks in the South initially numbered 100. Those institutions were of lower quality, with 28 of them classified as sub-baccalaureate. Only seven states offered postbaccalaureate training, while no accredited engineering or doctoral programs were available for blacks. These institutions were all smaller than white or nonsegregated universities, often facing a lack of resources.[5]

By 1946, only one fifth of the 100,000 blacks who had applied for educational benefits had been registered in college.[6] Furthermore, historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) came under increased pressure as rising enrollments and strained resources forced them to turn away an estimated 20,000 veterans. HBCUs were already the poorest colleges. HBCU resources were stretched even thinner when veterans’ demands necessitated an expansion in the curriculum beyond the traditional "preach and teach" course of study.[4]

Though blacks encountered many obstacles in their pursuit of G.I. benefits, the bill greatly expanded the population of African Americans attending college and graduate school. In 1940, enrollment at Black colleges was 1.08% of total U.S. college enrollment. By 1950 it had increased to 3.6%. However, these gains were limited almost exclusively to Northern states, and the educational and economic gap between white and black nationally, widened under the effects of the G.I. Bill.[7] With 79 percent of the black population living in southern states, educational gains were limited to a small part of black America.[4]

Wikipedia


The link between poverty and crime is a subject that has been examined by sociologists, governments and organizations such as the World Bank and United Nations for decades now. Robbing, for example, is most commonly reported to take place in areas of extreme poverty in the Americas (Latin America and the Caribbean) at a rate of 21 percent, and robbery and assault are among the most commonly reported crimes in communities that are predominantly poor. Places with high income inequality in particular have higher incidences of crime – overwhelmingly so, in fact. A 2002 study by The World Bank found that crime rates and inequality are positively correlated, and an increase in income inequality has the effect of intensely increasing crime rates. That same study also found that increases in a country’s GDP has the ability to lessen the incidence of crimes in that country, showing that poverty alleviation has a crime-reducing effect.

That being said, other studies have revealed that the upper class commits far more crime than the lower class, which contradicts the assumption that crime is more predominant among the poor. In 1993, blue-collar criminals stole $15.3 billion but in that same year white-collar criminals stole $200 billion through embezzlement and fraud. In terms of violent crime, 23,271 people were murdered that year by street criminals, but the decisions made by high-value corporations led to the deaths of at least 318,368 people through worker safety violations, pollution, etc. Why are we conditioned to believe crime is limited to the lower and middle classes? Why is that when a white-collar worker is taken to court they gets far less media coverage than that of their blue-collared counterpart? The way the general public perceives crime is classist to say the very least.

Take the following statistic as an example. South Africa holds a reputation for having the highest rape incidence in the world, at 500,000 annually. One associates the country’s high crime rates with the disproportionate levels of inequality that have ravaged the country since the apartheid era. In 2011, it was found that the average annual income of white households was at least six times higher than that of black households. Is this what led to the murder rate in 2013 of 33 per 100,000 people being more than five times higher than the global average of 6.2 per 100,000? It is perceived to be so. For years now worsening poverty, unemployment and inequality have seen crime rates grow, with violent crime especially on the rise, seeing 49 people murdered every day in South Africa.

But in Sweden, a country of perceived wealth, high GDP and income equality, also reported among those countries with the highest incidence of rape in the world, with 46 rape cases per 100,000 in 2009. How is this so, you ask, given the general patterns seen around the world that link high levels of poverty with crime? Turns out that https://econlife.com/2016/04/swedish-wealth-distribution/. For a small country, Sweden has a relatively high number of millionaires and ranks among the top 20 nations for ultra-high net worth individuals. The growth in inequality in Sweden since the 1980s has in fact been the largest among all OECD countries.

So, is it not so much the level of abject poverty but more the level of income inequality that lead to high crime rates in a country?

The reaction to the recent financial recession in the United States tells us that yes, this is indeed the case. According to official FBI statistics, crime rates actually dropped across the country in 2009, despite the fact they had been gradually increasing in the lead up to the financial meltdown. Murder, rape, assault, theft, robbery – you name it, the incidences of it fell across the board, destroying the idea that the root cause of crime lies in poverty and rather, affirming that it lies in widespread income equality. This too was seen during the recession of 1893, in 1907, the Great Depression of the 1930s. In all of these economic catastrophes, crime did not increase at all, showing that, as inequality between the rich and the poor shrunk, so too did the number of crimes committed.

So, what can we take from this? Is the answer to preventing crime such as robbery and break-ins improving public education, installing better security screens in our homes, or hiring security guards? Apparently not. It seems we need to focus more on lessening income inequality in countries around the world, targeting social justice and poverty in the fight against crime. In this way, we will perhaps be able to see a vast reduction in the instances of crime, both violent and non-violent, around the world – and especially in poorer countries.
Thanks for posting this! I am reviving the thread because of recent discussions. So many don't know about the laws that literally excluded non-whites from buying houses after the war. Black people, native Americans, Hispanics, they all fought and died for our war, and we fucked them over. Hard. That's a big reason why we have the inequality we have today.

People who talk about reparations for slavery are just ridiculous. THIS is what we should have reparations for, if anything. The actions of the government after WWII directly deprived THIS generation of non-whites from hundreds of thousands of dollars (I believe a low estimate is around $350k per family) on generational wealth. That is why you see such awful centralization of non-whites in ghettos, unable to become homeowners, attending awful schools, not able to afford college. It is directly the fault of the US government. Yes, people need to take some responsibility for their own actions, but that is a lotneasier to say looking at it from the outside than when you actually grow up in the projects..

To be clear, they usually were not laws, but matters of private contract, e.g., covenants that run with the land put in place by developers to protect their selling price.

I am not arguing right or wrong, just clarifying what was actually happening.

Such arrangements are illegal today.

If you are black today, in 2021 (2022?), and your grandparents and parents were poor, well, tough shit. Mine were, too. Figure out your goals and get there, overcoming obstacles as they arrive. Whining and fucking complaining is not going to get you anywhere. I am surrounded by too many successful blacks (not entertainers and sports figures) to listen to your bitchy whining.

Not every failure in your life is due to race, so stop assigning it as the blame to everything and carefully analyze what you can do differently.

If you are smart, companies are falling all over themselves to hire and promote smart, black employees.

If you are not, then you need to figure out another path, just like whites who are not smart. It's tougher, but there are paths to success without high intelligence.

Whatever is in some article you read about some black GI returning to New York after World War II and not being able to buy a house in an all white development, while it may cause some justifiable anger toward how he was treated after serving his country in a war, it has about 0 application to you and your life today, so stop using it as an excuse. Figure out a way forward. Everybody has obstacles. When you encounter one, find a way to deal with it or, well, give up and blame your failure on racism rather than the fact that you gave up.

There are not that many, so I find that hard to believe. And the ones who are, if you look will be light skinned, and suggests they have white ancestors mixed in. Studies have shown, higher percentage of whites mixing in, higher the IQ.

Not every failure in your life is due to race, so stop assigning it as the blame to everything and carefully analyze what you can do differently.
A lot is, but it's genetic... not whiteys fault that you have the genetics you have. IQ, personality, your drive, motivation, all genetic.

If you are smart, companies are falling all over themselves to hire and promote smart, black employees.
Got that right, reverse discrimination. A friend of mine was offered a $30 million loan, which he would not have to pay back, if he opened up a factory in Atlanta, and promise to hire a certain percentage of blacks.

If you are not, then you need to figure out another path, just like whites who are not smart. It's tougher, but there are paths to success without high intelligence.

Who do blacks blame stuff on in Africa, before whitey arrived? What was their scapegoat them, for the reason they never accomplished anything? Who held the black man down before whitey? I'lll tell you who.... Genetics.
 
First of all, this is a ridiculous thread - yet here I am.

Today, If you apply to college in the USA as a young person, without wealth, whose going to be given the benefit of the doubt throughout the process, including financial aid - notwithstanding GPA?

A white person
or
A black person

If you apply for a job in a non-racist area (Texans are extremely racist - think, lynching mentality, still), whose going to be given the benefit of the doubt throughout the process?

A white person
or
A black person

Both of these examples are objectively shown to have outcomes in favor of a black person.

We live in a society that is so fucked up by both Hollywood and political correctness, there is no longer objective/ universal truth guiding the decisions made by some dipshit lackey, stamping the approval to move forward in favor of someone in wither case, based solely on the color of their skin.

The only oppressed group I can see today, are white males, and this includes the court system.

Having said that, where I grew up, most of my friends were black, not of choice but of demographics, and some of them were extremely intelligent.
Similarly, some of the most horrible human beings I've met are black.

Now go back to your stupid steroid questions.

I guess that makes you feel good to say that, or for some to hear it. But... when you look at the hard data.. blacks have the lowest IQ's of any group. African countries have the lowest IQ's of any nation. So, those smart blacks you knew, were a statistical aberration. Or had a lot of genetics in them from another group.

At least we'll never have to worry about some biological lab in Africa, run by africans creating a weaponized virus like China did with Corona!

I agree and disagree with various parts of this.

I do think the lost intergenerational wealth has severely harmed the vast majority of black people in the US. Check out this little bit of data:
View attachment 158130

I know it is easy to say "it is in the past, it doesn't affect you now". Look I TOTALLY agree people need to be held accountable for their actions and that it IS possible for (almost) anyone to succeed if they work hard enough. "Hard enough" is almost impossible for some people though--not because of laziness or anything like that, but because the bar of "hard enough" is fucking exponentially higher for them than it is for others simply due to the cards of life.

I don't think the government should compensate for every one of those cards, but I think the ones that they had a part in should be considered and thoroughly talked through.

So the median family wealth of a white family goes up by just under $100k after an inheritance. For a black family, it goes up by less than $5k. I don't read the New York Times or shit like that. I have also seen lots of successful black people. But I work in IT...if you look at computer science or almost any STEM careers, the white to black ratio is off the charts.

A lot of black families are really fucked over when a family member dies, because death is a BIG BUSINESS and it's fucking expensive (unless you go the Big Lebowski route)...but even a cremation can be a few thousand dollars.
View attachment 158131

That's all I am saying. The intergenerational wealth lost by these communities is pretty big. YES we have financial aid. YES we have some compensating measures.

But financial aid and college acceptance is hard when you live in a ghetto and are pulled into gang shit as a pre-teen. The money lost is easy enough for a down payment on a house to get a lot of people out of the ghetto and into a pretty decent area. That's really all I am saying. And that lost money DOES directly affect this generation.

Yes, people need to stop making excuses. I agree that excuses are made way too often. Honestly, we also need to make some massive changes to the education system. School sucks. It doesn't teach people in a realistic way...but that is another topic altogether.

One last point, you are correct that a lot of the laws against blacks buying houses was from private companies and sellers--and they were doing it to attract white people to their area. So it's a multifaceted issue--but there is a long history of government involvement in this practice and other racist practices that caused the housing issue that we speak of:

The National Housing Act of 1934 is what started the practice of redlining (not allowing blacks or non-whites to buy in certain areas).

The Housing Act of 1937. I am not sure how prevalent this was, but I know that in some cases, more diverse neighborhoods were demolished to make way for segregated government housing (projects).

The GI Bill is often referenced, but didn't really directly discriminate. Blacks were entitled to the same benefits (I am almost certain)--it was the private companies and realtors, etc., that wouldn't allow them to buy houses or show houses in certain areas.

There's more, but this post has been sitting here waiting for me to reply since Thursday so I figure I will just post what I got.

In a nutshell: every single person needs to take responsibility for their own life. If they make shit choices, that is on them. In many cases, reparations probably wouldn't even really help them long term. It would be a windfall that would get spent on a new car, maybe they'd buy a house (which could be really good), but the chances are that these minorities still wouldn't invest that money. Then it would be gone. However, it is their prerogative as to how they spend that money, just like if they got an inheritance because their grandparents were actually able to buy a good house after the war they could spend THAT money however they want. It would be a $1.5 trillion dollar spending bill to give reparations to blacks, based off a 14% population rate. We have spent way, way, way more than that on other bills doling out money to people recently anyway. Also, if we could raise the fucking corporate tax rate and add some additional higher tax brackets to have the system resemble more like pre-Reagan era, then perhaps we could benefit society more to help lift up the people who normally wouldn't have much of a chance. By doing this, we lift up all of society. You never know who is going to be the one to solve the worlds problems: fucked up agriculture practices; looming water shortages; wildfires; sea level rise; climate change; rare earth metal shortages; inefficient batteries; pandemics; mental health issues; the list goes on. Anyone could solve these problems, but the majority of the population is shot in the foot at birth and told they have the same chance as everyone else.

I am not saying WE NEED to give reparations--just pointing out that I do think it's worth discussing and if not reparations then perhaps there are other options? I dunno. I fear I am rambling at this point. I've written this post over a couple days so hopefully it makes sense.
 
I have inherited nothing.

IQ factors into success, as does culture with respect to school, working hard, and doing what needs to be done. Why do you think some black kids get bullied for "acting white" when they strive to do well in school.

There is a lot more to this than the GI bill in the 1940s, and not all of it is society.

And, hey, no, get government out. Worst fucking idea ever is government "help."

:rolleyes:
 
The black community’s problem is bastard children that raise themselves rather than having involved parents, and any educated black person would agree with this
 
Also, if we could raise the fucking corporate tax rate and add some additional higher tax brackets to have the system resemble more like pre-Reagan era, then perhaps we could benefit society more to help lift up the people who normally wouldn't have much of a chance.
Corporations don't pay tax so much as collect it by passing on the cost to you, the consumer.

Anyway, government should not "lift up" one person or class of person over another. Government's job is to protect my life, property, and liberty. Anything else that government does is illegitimate.
 
Having worked with and having family members that are fairly distant that have lots of wealth, there is such a thing as privilege.

Take my distant cousin. She inherited large amounts of farm land which she rents out. Her husband is a mechanical and electrical engineer and a high up guy that flies all over the world designing and solving problems. Combined income is about 1.5 million a year between wife and husband. They have multiple homes, a housekeeper. They have two sons, one is in med school and the other is in engineering school. Each son was bought $250K RV's to live in off campus and their $50K/yr schooling is paid for by parents.

This is the very definition of privilege, they have a lifestyle that is far removed from the common average man in the United States.

When interacting with these two young men that are in school they have an air of superiority and seem completely oblivious to how others live. They are both very smart disciplined young adults, but they have no clue how lucky they were to be born into the situation they have.

If this is who the woke warriors are fighting against I guess I have no problem with it. The problem is when they want to crush the average guy because they happen to be white. Most white men/women have no privilege, most of them grind through their days just like anyone else. Suicide rates are off the charts for white men, so obviously there's a level of unseen misery.

America tends to show the rich far more often than the shadowy underbelly of what goes on behind closed doors. The successful drown out the ones just barely making it. The American dream is shoved down everyone's throat like a 12" cock so no one can complain as their mouths overfill and choke on putrid jizz.

The problem is and I'm sure you know this already, the government does lift up a certain class of people in this country.

They dote and spend most of their time on those that don't need any help and little or no time on those that do need some help.

The government wants a cookie cutter type. College graduate with a well rounded liberal arts degree that leans heavily left. They must have their indoctrination courses of feminism/gender studies and critical theory. They will work and be kept warm and cozy, surrounded by other fellow workers that are exactly the same as them and they will expect this each day they go to work or will protest if anyone is allowed in that doesn't have the same exact CV, as these people feel threatened by anyone that thinks differently, they will lose their shit as they look upon lesser beings with disgust.

The governments job isn't so much to protect life and liberty as it is to keep a certain upper class protected. I don't see how the poor or even what used to be the middle class are protected as much as they are being watched to make sure they don't cause any problems for the upper crust.

The vast majority in this country are basically cannon fodder, there purpose is to slave and grind away each day until they are old pissing and shitting their pants at which point they will die 3 days after they collect their first SS check.

When a Nancy Pelosi has no clue why a group of rag tag rioters would be after her that is when you know your government is being run by a group of people that have no clue just how much they have lost touch with reality on the ground. Insider trading to the tune of $100 million and she expects this, she's entitled. If ever there was Marie-Antoinette telling the masses "let them eat cake", she was and most of what is running our government are moving towards a sequel French Revolution.

As you have endless amounts of wealth being flashed in this country and a total disconnect from the millions sitting back watching the feast licking their chops, it doesn't take much before the hoards grab pitchforks and sharpen the angled blade.

Well stated
 
Regardless of leftism and the obsession with inequality.

The main problem is the number of people running our country not just in politics, but your average company man/women that simply don't give a shit.

We call this a united country, people talk about patriotism, wave flags and spew fake propaganda. There's no brotherhood in this country. It's a damn police state set up for the wealthy to exploit and divvy like taking candy from a baby.

People talk about the rule of law as if it were a religion, we all know you get the justice you can afford and not a penny more.

Soldiers that died or became horrifically injured protecting my so called freedom(to buy product A,B or C). We all know they were conned into a game where defense contractors walked off rich. Wars that could have been avoided by sitting down and talking or not creating endless impossible sanctions, but that is asking too much for anyone to propose a saner solution to problems without violence.

When a cop is pulling you over by the side of the road, planting drugs under your seat to make his monthly quota to get that end of the year raise and promotion so he could afford his daughters braces, it wasn't personal, he was just doing what America expects....productivity at the expense of the innocent.

It's a system that has reached a point of such absurdity that there's really no fooling yourself. The low hanging fruit has been picked by past generations starting after WWII, the rich can afford a tall ladder to pick everything else clean and now a future generation of nomadic drifters will hustle as long as they can hustle to get by paying $2500 a month to rent a walk in closet. When these young adults move into middle age with nothing(you will own nothing and be happy), this will ramp up the discontent even more as they realize they will be living in a tent knowing the country doesn't give a flying fuck as they have to suck cocks of random strangers to get a hot meal.

America is mostly a system of credit and debt and that is how it's held together by people willing to go into debt paying high interest rates, as they see their lives continue to get worse and worse as reality sets in that they'll never be free. These people become bitter and attack those around them for not doing the same thing, for not placing themselves in harms way.

As the country becomes smaller and more claustrophobic from mass immigration the situation will become even colder and more impersonal as we compete and fight for even less scraps. The naive innocence that was once apart of wide open American folk lore from writers like Jack Kerouac of a person living a meaningful life in a free and vicarious way will have completely vanished and what you will be left with is how useful you are in service of the grotesque machine that grinds people up and spits them out.

Any economic problem that becomes too big to ignore eventually becomes a political problem.

Like it or not the system is heading for a radical change.

The 1.7 trillion in student loans was never gonna get paid off. I remember when it hit 1 trillion and that wasn't all that long ago and now it's heading for 2 trillion. You know this is gonna be written off eventually once the old rot that is running the country is sent to the glue factory.

Cost of housing will lead to another collapse as people borrow too much money and the retired look to make passive income off young suckers expected to work two or three jobs for the privilege of not having to live in their vehicle, meanwhile grandma is completely oblivious to the pain and suffering she is causing as those checks roll in each month.

I've long waited for people to wake up and avoid the consumerism trap that has been set, but each decade I see the same thing, young people with stars in their eyes looking towards the future that won't materialize for most, while they ignore where they are at and what they are doing at that moment to realize the gravity of the situation. Instead choosing to fantasize about something that will make them happy only to end up signing on the dotted line for a quick dopamine fix to get them past that crushing feeling of doubt as they wake up each day to a subconscious knowledge that they're not gonna escape unless they have the courage to break the chains of conformity and walk away from a system that doesn't work anymore except for the money men that look upon you with disdain for not putting your head down accumulating excess to be deposited in the advisors accounts as they live off others misfortune.

Perhaps we are seeing this with the great resignation, a point where the hypnosis is being broken, a society of Dudes living a Big Lebowski. What society would call bums could radically transform this country to what I've wanted all along, a people that see bullshit for what it is and no longer give a fuck.

Yes admitting there's a problem can allow you to fix it, but we mostly create our own problems with unnecessary work and activity and wear this as a badge of pride to prove our worth. When one no longer thinks of what goes on in the eyes and brains of others, how they are being perceived and can conduct their lives how they really want with no concept of shame, then you will have a society living honestly and not just a bunch of actors playing their assigned roles.

now just imagine if that happened on a constant basis to your family for generations....no matter how hard you work..you are stuck in place by the color of your skin no other reason...and when the "shackles" are finally somewhat loosened, you are years behind the curve financially and are always playing catch up...not everyone thrives in that kind of enviornment
Any inequality based on skin color, where you were born or other signs is very bad. How much this shit was in all history in different countries, how much blood was shed and how many deaths. And again, there is a discretion in the world.
 
The black community’s problem is bastard children that raise themselves rather than having involved parents, and any educated black person would agree with this
Мaybe it's not the color of the skin, but the level of wealth. People who live beyond survival are forced to survive. I may be wrong, but I think they think corny about how to survive
