Kamala to give money to black men

The vice president on Monday outlined her “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men.” The policies include a plan to provide as many as 1 million fully forgivable loans of up to $20,000 for Black entrepreneurs; further investment into training, mentorship and apprenticeship programs designed to help Black men land jobs in high-demand industries; and the legalization of recreational marijuana, paired with a concerted effort to make sure Black men are able to access wealth and jobs in that market.

Will this help Kamala with the black male vote? Because we all know this is the only reason
she is trying to do this. She is losing the black male vote, so of course, promise them money
and they will vote for her. I'm surprised she didn't say they would get a free kilo of weed
with it.

@NativePortlander1970 @DogMan The purpose of government is to provide useful and essential services to the people. We should all have universal medical care, very low cost college, a first rate public transit system, a strong social safety net. You know the services every other advanced country takes for granted.

@DogMan You have benefited from many public sevices from taxes, such as education, street lights, snow ploughs, paved roads, fire department, public safety, national defence, food safety regulation, parks and many, many others.

@badminton We could have a good deal of your pie in the sky bullschiff if those 25,000,000 illegal aliens were not living high off the hog on your dime

@sunsporter1649 I'm very happy with the "illegal aliens." They pay into Social Security, though they don't get the benefits. Actually, I favor sensible regulations on immigration. But I will NEVER participate in hating and fearing refugees from foreign countries.

Here's some Bible quotes for you,

The Lord watches over the strangers; he upholds the orphan and the widow, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.
Psalm146:9

Show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another.
Zechariah 7:9-10

I was eyes to the blind, and feet to the lame. I was a father to the needy, and I championed the cause of the stranger.
Job 29:15-17

@badminton Before Columbus we didn't have borders, the Migrants ALL have the same First Nations Native heritage as I have, we all have far more claim to ALL of the "Americas" than the descendants of the european colonizers.

@sunsporter1649 still better than you

@DogMan

and although I have no college,

there's a real shocker

DogMan · 61-69, M

@Vin53 Yep, no college, yet I worked hard and became a multi-millionaire.

I own several houses and I paid cash for all of them, except the first one.
My college educated friends are not even close. And I did it all with my own
money, risk, and hard work. But I'm sure you believe that college somehow
increases a persons IQ. News Flash! it does not.

@DogMan To prosper America needs scientists, engineers, tecnicians, doctors, nurses. We need our young people to have access to training in those fields. Every other advanced country has free or low-cost college or job training for their young people. They see it as an essential investment. I gladly pay my taxes for job training and education.

@badminton

The $150.7 billion spent on illegal aliens last year is more than the total gross domestic product (GDP) of Mississippi ($146.7 billion in 2023), New Mexico ($131.5 billion), Idaho ($119.8 billion), and is more than the GDP's Wyoming and Vermont combined, at $50.74 billion and $43.38 billion, respectively.

DogMan · 61-69, M

@badminton Yes, you are right. We have a Doctor and Nurse shortage, and we need
more people in the STEM fields. For some reason women are not going for the STEM
jobs, that is a problem.

sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M

@DogMan If the illegal aliens were not here and taking jobs from citizens problem solved
