Stop Whining?
How many people in the media have pointed out that the black-white income gap narrowed during the Reagan administration, just as it has widened during the Obama administration? For that matter, how many Republicans have pointed it out?Most everything the Obama administration does has the opposite effect of what they claim they are trying to do. They say they want to bring people together, yet they are dividing us in every way possible. They say they want to spread the wealth, yet the gap between the rich and poor is getting larger - and what's left of the middle class is getting the shaft. Even their 'green' programs are anything but 'green.' It's all a lie. They are the Decepticons. They are enriching and empowering themselves and their friends at the expense of the American people. At YOUR expense.
The Reagan administration did not have any special program to narrow the racial gap in incomes. The point is that the kinds of policies followed in the 1980s had that effect, just as the kinds of policies followed by the Obama administration had opposite effects. But just listening to rhetoric won't tell you that.
Over the years, some of the most devastating policies, in terms of their actual effects on black people, have come from liberal Democrats, from the local to the national level.
