Uncle Sam's Plantation

The posted article was written by a black woman and published back in February. It seems even more pertinent today as "black" is back in the news as the black Harvard professor was arrested for being lippy to the local police. President Obama should have said, "no comment"...but his narcissism came shining through again and he said that the police behaved "stupidly".

Anyway, this black woman is sounding the alarm that we are all descending into socialism as the Government promises to house us, feed us, insure us, protect us and pay us. She starts by giving an example of how socialism has devastated the black community in America.

A benevolent Uncle Sam welcomed mostly poor black Americans onto the government plantation. Those who accepted the invitation switched mindsets from "How do I take care of myself?" to "What do I have to do to stay on the plantation?"
Instead of solving economic problems, government welfare socialism created monstrous moral and spiritual problems. The kind of problems that are inevitable when individuals turn responsibility for their lives over to others.
The legacy of American socialism is our blighted inner cities, dysfunctional inner city schools, and broken black families.

Wow! If that was spoken by anyone else but a black person, you would have Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson calling for your execution. She goes on to cast serious doubt on Barack Obama;

Trillions of dollars later, black poverty is the same. But black families are not, with triple the incidence of single parent homes and out of wedlock births.
It's not complicated. Americans can accept Barack Obama's invitation to move onto the plantation. Or they can choose personal responsibility and freedom.
Does anyone really need to think about what the choice should be?
