Be it white, black, or brown this entire country is trashed. Don't forget we where founded by runaways and traders to the crown. I would say that's destined to fail.

I don't see how forming a new country to escape from oppression of speech and religion is destined to fail. We've allowed our government to grow too big, and put there hands into too many things. I understand it's a complex day and age, but there are simple things that could help turn our economy around that are being prohibited for inane reasons.

We have more oil in the U.S. than the Saudi reserves, yet we aren't allowed to mine the shale or drill for "environmental" issues. If the oil industry in the U.S. blew up, it would create hundreds of thousands of jobs. Not only would it create jobs, but a huge percentage of all products made these days contain some form of petroleum product, so if oil prices in the U.S. plummet, so would the cost of most other goods in the U.S.

Also, why are domestic companies not given tax incentives to keep production facilities here, on U.S. soil? People are angry that companies have moved the majority of their production to China, but those companies are only operating as any company should; protecting its shareholders and making money. The fault in this situation lies with the U.S. government not protecting the economy. Why is it cheaper for companies to produce in China and pay the import taxes and not just keep manufacturing facilities in the U.S.?

If you knew anything, you would would know white people make up the largest portion of people on welfare, so come again?

who the fack is the racist now, eh?

please, enlighten us of your superior genius as you espouse your most biased opinion towards the socio-economic slant that is most appealing to your position.

we can all use the laugh in these trying times of racial intolerance as long as your logic hasn't changed.

That oppression of speech and religion keep a country in check for a very long time and it worked. Humans are animals that need structure, something the US does not have. That same freedom of speech and religion has caused more problems then any other American right. Religion itself is the most destructive force in know history

I don't care for religion at all, but at the same time, why should anybody be able to tell you want to believe?

Freedom of speech goes much farther than just bitching about whatever obnoxious social issue society has deemed worthy of it's attention. Take, for instance, scientific discoveries that were made in the past that were damaging or discredited a national religion. People were jailed indefinitely or executed for sharing what they discovered.

In fact, the reason I believe America is in the social state it's in now is because of everyone trying to please everyone and making sure nobody is offended. We've allowed the people to develop an almost universally shared feeling of entitlement and our government is trying to satiate our desires, but to ill effect.

My point is, just because free speech is allowed doesn't mean that we should have to listen to it. Just because someone gets upset because they have to say "one nation under God" in the pledge of allegiance doesn't mean we should try to change the pledge of allegiance.

lol, this tangent of ours is getting really off topic.

Actually there is slightly more black people on welfare and there are TONS more white people in the US. What does that tell you? You will get no sympathy bruh
Copy/pasta from another site

"I just pasted these from a government site:

With regard to AFDC the figures are:

White 38.8%

Black 39.8

Hispanic 15.7

Asian 2.4

other 3.3

To break down these numbers, we look at how many Whites are in the population as a WHOLE. If Blacks make up less 14% of the population and are almost 40% of all receipients, then they represent about 2.5 times their actual population. Since Whites are over 50% of the total US pop., they represent less than their overall piece of the pie, population-wise. Hispanics are at least 15% of the general population, so they take only about as much as what their population represents. Why am I writing this? Because I am tired of the misrepresentations on this issue. I read so many on here claiming that more Whites are on welfare than Blacks (true, in terms of raw numbers), yet not accounting for the fact that there are over 4X as many Whites in this country than Blacks! In statistics, you cannot go by mere numbers. Only if the playing field is exactly equal, which is rarely is! This thread was started, not to be racist, but to keep it real. After all, there are some legitimate reasons for Blacks to be on welfare more than Whites. But the worst thing anyone can do is be in denial. "

I can def appreciate your response

We are currently still fighting a war that has lasted as long as Nam that stemmed from religion. I have to spend the next 9 months away from my 9 month old daughter thats not going to know who I am when I get home if I do get home because of it. It stirkes a cord with me and many others that see past the America the great mentality. Off topic but I had to put that out there

Actually according to the National Center for Education Statistics, a Government organization, the largest portion of people on welfare are black. And consistently have been since 1980. The information I got this from goes to 2009, but you will get the picture. National Welfare statistics by race and ***

Lowlifes in this current nation think that big government should give them stuff. Free phones, free homes, free health care, free college educations, free money. NO one is entitled to such things. If you want stuff, work for it. It isn't the american way, it is the human way.

No race is better than another. We are all human. Just don't throw out the race card when someone disagrees with you. Racists come in all colors. Don't believe me? Ever hear of Black Panthers? Nazis? Anti-Racists (Anti-White) and others.

Also if someone disagrees with you, are they a hater? Or do they just have a different opinion than you do? BTW, slaves were around since the dawn of time. Not since the dawn of America.

Yeah, I don't see why we're over there. Maybe we wouldn't have to be over there keeping the region "stable" to protect our oil interests if we could tap into the estimated BILLIONS of barrels of oil that under U.S. soil. I wish we'd just leave that **** hole behind, if it implodes on itself, fine. The reason that area of the world is so backwards is because of Islam and the ridiculous laws imposed upon inhabitants as a result of its prevalence.

I don't blame you for being upset, especially considering your situation. No matter how reluctant, I for one appreciate your service.

Believe it or not there really isnt much going on over there until WE start agitating it. Most of my danger comes from flying around in their airspace hours at a time in degrading aircraft cause we dont have the funds to keep them up. My plane could be hard down RIGHT before its shot off a carrier, thats a bit scarry but you cant show it. And thanks

You know why we arent using our own oil resources right? When oil is in major shortage and prices are 5X the amount it is now, the US will capitolize. The feds care about profit more than environment.

Also Racist is a horribly overused word thats mostly used inccorrectly. Most people here dont feel their race is superior, there are just intolerant people with big strong opinions and are usually devoted to their own views of prejudice. If you want to call someone something, call them a Bigot.

I've got a feeling that you don't understand statistics. Black people make up something like 12% of the population while 45% of people on welfare are black. That means that for every white person on welfare there is something like 10 black people on welfare.

Chill guys .. It's the fuckkin Asians we need to worry about .. Sneaky little bastardss

Token Asian reporting in.
