Ding, ding, ding! Winner.

Blacks, because of their history in the US, started and remain (demographically speaking) at the bottom of the economic pyramid. Combine that with social policy that has destroyed family formation and maintenance, and the bottom of the pyramid has been socially gutted. The behavior in the ghetto neighborhoods is the definition of anti-social behavior. The reason for that is that socialization is taught in and by families. Without male role models, black male youth is living in hell because they have far too few people to offer them advice and alternative ways to live.

I'm not sure of the solution. But I am completely sure that the areas where black social structure has been obliterated the worst have been run under Democratic ideology for decades. If you keep doing the same thing over and over again, it just gets worse and worse. I am not a big fan of Republican ideology either so am not suggesting accepting that alternative, but at the very least stop supporting the Democratic power structure. If there's no better alternative, don't vote. By voting Democrat, people are legitimizing a system with almost infinite evidence of complete, dramatic and violent failure.

I very rarely have ever voted for a Republican but plan to do so this election. I'm convinced there is actual progress you can make with that side as opposed to the Democrats.
