The History of Slavery In America
Some 200 hundred years ago, some of the white people (North and South) sat on their porches and watched the people of color do the work that needed to be done so the whites could live the life they wanted. If the people of color didn’t produce enough to keep the whites happy, the whites complained about it. In those days, it was called slavery.
Today, 200 years later, a lot of the people of color (North, South, East, and West) sit on their porches and watch the White people work to pay the taxes that are necessary for the people of color to live the life they want. If their welfare check is not enough to keep them happy, the people of color complain about it.
It would appear to me that the only thing that has changed in the last 200 years is the color of the slaves.

You Sir, with a post like this keeps this stupid race debate going. Once again like so many here have their talking points but no facts. I'm white, I grew up in the late 50's and the 60's, in the Alabama Cotton Fields. I hoed and picked beside Black Kids, but like my Dad would say, "They are just like us, poor". So, to your post, this is not a racial issue it is about a Government that has created a class of people white, brown, black and whatever way you want to try to divide Americans to keep them depressed and depending on A Government that has done nothing but put people in the little slots they want us to fit in. Why ? CONTROLL

It has been going on for centuries. The Tripoli pirates kidnapped white as well as black people, and today the modern Muslims follow in their ancestors footsteps well marked out in blood.

I second the vote for humor! Both races should grin to this one. Laughing at ourselves is healthy.

====================
The bottom line now is, those who move and produce are taxed. Those that move and produce further are regulated.
Those who don't produce are subsidized. That is called free loading. It is a good life; they have huge muscles, strong and healthy. All they do is march down the streets, yell and complain of "racist" for more free bees.

I'm so glad you found my post funny. Wish you would have been with me in those Cotton Fields. Maybe we could have joked about how great we had it, working just for our family.

It was hard yet honorable work.

I've told this story before .
I was a young boy when my father pulled over to the shoulder by a cotton field being worked by hand pickers . He had a few words with the foreman
then told me and my two older sisters that we were in for an experience . The foreman handed us a large gunny sack each and my father gave us
a quick lesson on " Pickin Cotton ". After about 30 minutes he called it quits . My sisters were fuming . My finger tips felt like they had all been stung
several times by bees . The old black foreman and my father exchanged looks followed by that old black man looking down at me with a huge grin
and said , " Boy , a couldn't afford to hire you . " Later my father explained that the people on hands and knees picking cotton all day were paid by
how much they had picked and the old boy was just making a statement . I hadn't picked much at all . My father was raised a farm boy during the
depression and at times picked cotton to feed himself . He grew up a tall standing man and a damned good one .
Good on ya .
