And before someone brings up the "but immigrants" rhetoric. The immigrant experience =/= generationally black & generationally poor experience.

your music is trash lmaoTrasoulmusic.
Haven't recorded in years and I'm pretty sure most of the tracks are hidden, but it's easy to see who my #1 fan is.
The last paragraph is probly the most sensible thing u ever wroteI applaud you and your parents success. Truly I do. It's always good to hear stories like that.
I don't ignore and discount disenfranchisement. I just wonder aloud why people don't do more to supplement themselves when the government aid or racist policy is in effect. It seems to me that there's the idea that's been pervading people that if the government doesn't step in and you need help then your suddenly absolved of all blame.
I highlight steps and actions on a daily basis that can be used to elevate ones station. The realest post in here by my opposition was about lack of outreach. Maybe the things I preach are unknown unknowns. So I'd be all for my tax dollars going to concerted efforts to educate people about all the various ways I champion to be used to make them more competitive in today's world.
If you send your kid to a good school and they want to start language immersion program which is very beneficial. They may not be able to do so because the tax money is going to some other school that you have no connection to other than it just happens to be in your district.
Congrats you just played yourself and your kid lost a chance to be bilingual. Now you'll have to shell out hundreds for Rosetta Stone or a private tutor.
My parents are black. Both born poor in the Bronx and one in Jamaica. Everything I believe about how to get ahead is a testament to what I saw growing up.
And yet somehow here in Belgium, the French-speaking south does not mandatorily learn Dutch (our native language in the north)And some how the candian government manages to offer French immersion free of charge.

@mattyglesias: The key to understanding the ACA debate is that repeal is a giant tax cut for millionaires https://t.co/kidk2r8GoS

@GMA: Donald Trump enters office as most unpopular of at least last 7 newly-elected presidents, new ABC/WaPo poll finds: https://t.co/ulYJYjdruI https://t.co/Kjae1Btvtr
Good morning from "The Horrible 5th District"...
I wonder how many are rejoicing about the Obamacare repeal while not realizing it is the same thing as the ACA and that they're using itThe GOP is really playing with fire if they're actually going through with the repeal without an alternative like it looks like. They already have the most unpopular incoming president in decades and I doubt folks are gonna be exactly happy once they lose their coverage with no alternative. You're already seeing Trump voters having buyers remorse as a result of all the repeal talk.
Dudes think it's all good now since they won recently but we've all seen how fast the pendelum can swing, they might just get what's coming to them when they're up for re-election
Wouldn't even be all that upset if I was a dem, it'd be a temporary L that would open the doors for some highly effective attacks on the GOP as well as turning GOP favorability/approval ratings on their heads
Deez ethered Rusty a page or two back.
@Fusion:
