@ProfD in terms of area on the map by states, the usa is more red, but in terms of population density mappings the usa is more blue, so it is an even thing. ah then that wasn't what the black people referred to. Maybe the black people you around talk about the constitution alot but not around here at any age

@ProfD It would be effective in getting someone elected, 100% , but it would not be effective in demanding anything once their elected. That is the issue. Remember, George Washington, white man, first president, owner of blacks, a majority of whites, poor or rich, wanted him to be king. He could had, but he chose to term limit himself. he did that, it wasn't the voting blocks desire, and that sets the tone in the usa ever after, once elected you are free to do what you want. Which means you are free to listen to others, you are free to work for the voting base that got you elected.... but, you are also free to listen to no one, you are also free to work against the voting base that got you elected COUGH BLACK ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES even point, I made myself an ass Yes, in the course of things he did BUT the base wasn't those things. That is my point. Schrumpt didn't start with those things. He used Rush Limbaughs podcast/radio method. LEt the audience tell you want to rant. Schrumpft started with only two things: everyone in government is a liar, and I will shake things up. Then ,as the supporters showed thier old great granfathers confederacy flag he added, white nationalism, as they got on twitter about speaking spanish, got to rid of the immigrants, and defunding the government had many supporters in various fields of his early supports. He is resounding, and I am not suggesting he didn't make promises, but that wasn't how he started this thing I Argue Schrumpft is mimicking, even in hand gestures, william shatner from the intruder. The difference is, schrumpft, has modern telecommunications as well as a legacy of failure from the elephants or donkeys to make it easier. In the 1950s 1960s many whites in rural areas still believed the elected officials would do for them, but by 2025, many of those same whites don't feel the people in government have done for them or their parents or grandparents. Which is hnest. WHite people in the countryside have been begging for a return to the farms, a strengthening of manufacturing before either of us was born, did it happen? Now I comprehend all the stated reasons but again, that doesn't deny it didn't happen but was continually promised. SO this meant while shatner's character falls, Schrumpts had and has it very easy. but like shatner all he is doing is resounding. That is the key to the strategy from getting elected to podcast, just resonate the anger of the people absent doing anything about it or having any sort of plan or solution. the rest does itself. the peoples anger only grows and other people who refute the anger, don't have solutions but create a cyclical banter complaining about other complaining. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Intruder_(1962_film) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hudN_0yQ7dg your not comprehending my point. Your correct, The USA is way bigger than NYC, your correct... but the USA is way bigger than MAGA too. Schrumpft isn't making the usa hyper white nationalist, hyper white nationalist merely exist in the usa, it isn't the same thing. And what does this culminate tooo,... regionalisty. My point for mentioning NYC is regionality, not some sort of centrism. The USA has many regions, a country of three hundred million plus people has many regions. MAGA isn't strong or noticeable everywhere, maybe where you are, even enough, but not everywhere. by semantics are you suggesting an implication not verbally stated by many black people older than you are I? well... I am not trying to change your mind to anything, I admit that again cause I see in our dialogs I border on prosyletization. But I can't suggest what people don't say. I have never been a fan of the suggestion of overuse of coded language. And maybe I don't comprehend what you mean by birth rights, but for me, it is just rights. I also know that white jews are a very tiny populace of the white populace in the usa, I also know that all the tiny populaces in the usa's various demographics are more financially successful than the largers. white jews are more financially successful than the white italisn or white germans/poor white trash or white irish. But white jews are also far smaller. I know that black ethiopians are more financially successful than black DOSers but again, far smaller populace. I know that white japanese are more financially successful than white chinese, but again, far smaller populace. all larger populaces in any demographic in the usa are financially negative compared to a smaller populace in that same demographic. White people have already pulled the rug for paying for white labor, that is how schrumpft won... you keep suggesting a secret alliance among whites that doesn't exist in modernity. The reason being is the unity of the past among whites relied on blocking access to wealth. But BLack DOSers while sacrificing alot of our communities or lives or goals or dreams using nonviolence to integrate to whites, with the help of the soviet union calling the usa out and gaining international traction, successfully got whites in the usa to share wealth and once that happened, white power as it was had problems. which has led to today. White people in all white towns all over the usa have only known white power and fear integration with the nonwhite, fear sharing of wealth with the nonwhite, fear fiscal competition with the non white all because they comprehend correclty, that all of said fears will lead to greater chances of fiscal poverty. Black people, especially DOSers are used to fiscal poverty ala from its ultimate form being enslaved, we don't get scared at the same rates being fiscally poor like whites. Schrumpft uses this. And that is how the pro anti jewish battle in the white populace in the usa has grown. The judeochristian union started in the 1960s based on the idea of a pan white identity in the usa, which suit, white women/white latinos like blanco puerto ricans/white asians like han chinese who all used the 1960s to grow their wealth in the white mold BUT, it also meant non white financial growth and then the corporations , many with wealthy white jews in administration started moving jobs outside the usa, and the rest is history.

@umbrarchist The united states had home economics + shop in many schools but the federal and state governments cut the funding... and neither are coming back. "Everyone needs to understand how to play for themselves" another form of individualsm is always an answer. I prefer collective or communal actions. But, in the usa, individualism is probably going to have better legs with the populaces makup

@ProfD Voting blocks have never demanded anything in the usa, that is a myth/lie. Voting blocks rarely exist as well ,the use of voting blocks as some grand strategy is a myth/lie. Now if I am wrong give me an example in usa history? because of your choice of words or usage of voting as an action I remember exactly what schrumpft did to build his following and none of it was specific promises or claiming to make the usa hyper white nationalist. His built his movement by blindsiding the party of abraham lincoln POAL, and in the primary did two things: 1) called everyone else in government , POAL or party of andrew jackson POAJ a liar, which is a functional truth. for decades both POAL+ POAJ members from federal to city council lie, he called them all out. They both do nothing and blame the complexities of government or each other which is a lie, government is not complex and the two parties as many have said did have a symbiotic relationship pre schrumpft. 2) he said he would shake things up. He never promised anything specific and when he faced hillary clinton he continued the same strategy against the POAL field in the POAL primary. He called her a liar based on her record or the record of the POAJ and said the same old same old, will lead to the same place, which is historically true in the past sixty years in the usa from the time of schrumpfts first election. I don't think schrumpft has ever done anything to make the USA hyper white nationalist. I Live in NYC it isn't hyper white nationalist. It is a city poorly run, which has a city council mostly made of women i think ... and soon to have another first time category of mayor in mamdani. When he campaigned against harris, it was the same thing, harris is incompetent and do you want to go back to the old stuff , and he won handily. But remember was it Schrumpft who led the harlem empowerment zone that didn't empower at all the majoirty populace in harlem at that time, black people? no it was the clintons /charlie rangel/inez dickens/and a bunch of other black elected officials to harlem. Was it schrumpft who was the attorney general of california and aided in putting black men in prison with negative uneven policies, no it was kamala harris. Was it schrumpts who used trillions of dollars for making computer chips in new york state as the center of a plan to supposedly help all of the usa, no it was biden. Was it schrumpt who forgave the entire begging banking industry included goldman sachs whose supposed to be such a brainiac financial firm with an welfare check absent demands? no that was Bush jr +Obama. Well in the schrumpf era, what I have noticed isn't people benefitting staying in government it is people leaving, between the POAL+ POAJ I argue the exodus from people representing both parties is the only constant. The hawks+ fiscal conservatives+ religious folk+ libertarians+reform party in the POAL are gone, they have been replaced by schumpfts folk. while the representatives of the POAJ in the bureaurcracy have made e huge exodus from USAID to the CDC to many other places where the POAJ has expanded the bureaucracy with their people. I am fortunate enough to have talked to various black people in the community older than me, who were actually there, they never said what you said. I have never heard any of them speak of birth rights. many of them are dead, but none spoke of birth rights. They spoke of rights. The language they used suggest to me it was less an statian/american thing than a human thing. yeah I do, i also know that no populace in the usa, including the white jew has ever pooled their money like that, so I ponder why the black populace in the usa should be the first?

@ProfD in the usa the voters, black nonblack or other, have never demanded anything. the system doesn't allow for voters to demand anything. The parliamentary system allows voters to demand, because the vote isn't the be all end all. In a parliamentary system, majorities are made by various voting blocks through parties of governance, and the second something goes against a voting block, they leave the majority, and if large enough, that will force a revoting. The USA system is built on faith, not demand. The voters are placing someone based on faith in the usa. thus why so few across the board in the usa vote. which elected officials in the usa warrants faith in their actions? oddly enough, the schrumpt people will say schrumpt and I argue, letting honesty overcome my negative bias to him, the argument can be made. Obama + Biden both as presidents arguably had more willing to put faith in them but didn't reward anyone's faith , thus schrumpft came after both. Locally, this is the problem with NYC. It has had from Koch to MAmdani, eight terms of elephant mayors , four terms of donkey mayors. Elephant mayors focus on specific groups, catering to the wealthy harder. Donkeys try to cater to the larger masses. But the problem is, providing for the larger masses is hard. NYC has been mismanaged for a very long time, so the damage is not little and doing for all is... not a little task, thus every single donkey mayor when they leave office is under a sorrow, why? cause the people who voted for them are never satisfied, cause the faith is never rewarded. the elephant mayors, focus on the rich , upper and lower rich, who are all colors/genders/religions/et cetera in nyc . the masses know this and absent alternative, don't vote. None of the above, it is a real thing. I can tell you value voting very highly, but the system in the usa isn't built for voting to have value and the proof is in recent history as much as the past. from sea to shining sea. The reason Schrumpt took over the republican party wasn't because of black people. it was white elected officials failings. And while money does aid elected officials getting elected, look at all the nepotisms in the usa government today. Many of these people come from money, the issue is their quality as people. They aren't really in government to government, they are in it, because it is one of the best labor markets in the usa today. Far safer than fiscal firms. You can be a senator for life, and all you have to do, is talk and play the media game well every four years. That is the usa system. I Don't know what country you seem to think the usa is. the marches in the 1960s wasn't from the act of voting, that was called advocacy , that isnt' the same thing. How can you vote your interest when your interest can't be guaranteed in the usa system through voting? And yes, fiscal operators strong enough influence, but that is a very expensive game. The two major parties work in the billions.

@ProfD your words suggest, financial failure only comes from a lack of knowledge... it is called gambling for a reason Profd. Yes, history should teach all human beings many things... does it? Again, the Black populace in the usa today, isn't wallowing in the past, the black populace in the usa in 2025 has all positive financial markers, now, they may not be to the extent you want, but that isn't wallowing. And I repeat, considering you comprehend the past of black people in the usa, I am willing to fully comprehend a minority populace that had to fight Very ^INF hard to get to integration nonviolently, not being some gungho now. Black people are doing it, but if your expecting some sort of grand communal collective financial march, it will not come nor in my mind should it come from the ground up. the USA hasn't even remotely warranted that. And black people have lived far worse, so patience is something which I argue we have more than anybody barring the First peoples/native american and patience is a virtue. PRofd , if you are others in a great rush, well get busy leading by example.

Two big financial issues have come to my realization. 1) Some Black people want the current financial growth in the black populace in the usa to move faster than warranted. 2) Too many Black people can't simply say the USA is a failed financial state. YEs , most powerful military in the world, welfare lifelining every single failed white owned industry in the usa. But, when any fiscal environment under a flag is as terrible as the usa, that doesn't show signs of an environment worth doing business. And I want to add, the condition of NYC + Los Angeles I should had added. Los Angeles was built on the film industry. All those props , set designers, Los ANgeles was built on the film industry, barely any films are made in los angeles, where is the mayor of los angeles? this is the second largest city in the usa and it let its biggest industry disappear? how is that good business? NYC had every industry you can name in its bounds, now it is a real estate den, trying to figure out how to turn a failed real estate system into collective wealth. Detroit with cars, how can I forget. The USA's big cities, have all gone to ruin, all led by whites all led by MIT/HArvard /Yale people. What does matriculation have to do with it? Black people in the usa for some reason, keep suggesting the usa is a positive place for businesses and if you are honest, it isn't. The following is the complete comment @KENNETH Well I have said in this forum already, in 2025 Black people in the usa have more business ownership or collective wealth than in the USA in times past. Using the Black History Book, through enslavement from 1492 to 1865 through jim crow from 1865 to 1980 Black people were financially stymied in overhwhelming majority by whites, this is a financial fact. So from 1980 to 2025 Black people after fighting through white terrorism/oppression to have unprecedented opportunity in majority, has led to an ever increasing rise in black business ownership or personal wealth from 1980 to today and growing. So from my view, what your talking about is acceleration. You want Black people in 2025 to be inspired as in times past as a collective. We taught ourselves to read in the late 1800s on will alone. We marched and rallied for legal changes that would influence how the usa works with may black people being murdered in the 1960s. Shirley CHisholm said black folks in the usa need a financial focus today. But where is the inspiration to come from. From 1980 to 2025 Black ownership had moments to lead greatly financially and they all fell. Black Entertainment Television was black owned, the majority owner who was black sold the company from under the other black owners, that undercut black owned media outlets ever since. Johnson could had reached for a consortium of black people to own BET, provided corporate rules. But he didn't. HE just sold it to whites who themselves are looking to sell their company to a holding firm this very year. The man who owned BET and sold it started the CHarlotte Bobcats. Sold it to Black man, Michael Jordan, who then sold it to white people. Black people say why we don't own sports team all the time. We owned one and it was sold to whites. Jordan couldn't find a set of black owners to buy the team? As I Said in this forum, the million man march could had been used to make a political march into a financial agency. Over a million black men marched on washington for guidance to the black community in the usa. the black people who led that march didn't provide anything. whose fault is that? they could had made a website and gave each man who was willing to give one dollar a ticket/card and said, when you go back home, use this card to access the website and vote on how we want to use a million dollars, and every year with one dollar, each million man wil lbe part of a financing to something n the black community in the usa. But, the million man march doesn't even have a website . In the harlem I live when the HArlem EMpowerment Zone which was advertised as financially beneficial to HArlem which at that time was still majority black, only one blac owned business in harlem received funding and that was cause that business knew someone. HArlem at that had an all black elected representative body fromc ity council to state assembly to stt senate to house of represnentatives. All f those blac elected officials couldn't demand black owned busineses have a greater cut, with the clintons as the supposed spearheaders of the money? George bush jr started the national african american museum, but Obama was president through most of its administration. Why couldn't obama open up the management of that museums' creation to more black people, with varying views and beliefs. The national african american musuem was made with a black 1% in control, the black 1% have never viewed the back populace in the usa properly in my view. They have always viewed the black 99% as erroneous/lazy/wrong and that matters in the narrative fo black history which that museum displays. What is my point? from 1980 to 2025 Black leaders in the usa had moments to guide to inpsire black people to work with each other for positive goals but usually they end up teaching the lesson of individualism. And so.... from BET to the NAtional African American Museum the lesson isn't black people in the usa need to work together in the age of integration, the lesson taught is black individuals in the usa in the age of integreation earn the right to do as they see fit regardless to the black community or blakc collectives betterment in the usa. And so how can you expect black people living in a black town in mississippi without water, near poisonous landfills to have this great black on black financial belief when black people who are millionaires and billionaires are selling to non blacks or not doing anything to the village's betterment? Yeah steward and smith , steward a savvy businessman in the right place at the right time started as reseller of technology, rode the dot com wave , which busted. Smith a chemist fortunate to have some patents and invests in software firms at the right time, has grown as all software investment firms have. Congrats to both, both hire and employ black people. Well done to both. But, I also provided examples of others who sold their firms. In conclusion, I already stated black business in the usa is growing, this is financial fact. But you are looking for acceleration and you have to really look at the field fo black wealthy people who aren't leading the way to such an explosion and it is financially irresponsible to suggest black people who have only been able to be part of the usa's financial environment since the 1980s to erase the lag from 1492 to 1980 caused by whites. thus the financial growth will be slow until some black billionaire or elected official leads much better, offering guidance that can convince black people to take huge risks. I happen to know about this. Adam Clayton Powell jr had lost connection with the rising set of younger black elected officials. It wasn't the people clamoring for rangel , Rangel hadn't did anything to warrant all of that. But rangel /dinkins/patterson whose son is blind and the guy that recently passed away who was in the ny senates, three of them from harlem without question, I dont think patterson was but I am uncertain. had formed a little union who would run harlem and black politics in nyc for decades, that is what happened. Powell jr alienated himself from the new generations and they ousted him. One thing black people have to do is stop telling false histories. I know I may sound like I am attacking you but I am not. I can't stand when anyone tells false history. I comprehend that many, I don't think most, black people in the usa view voting as a symbol of freedom. Black people like yourself of Profd or Pioneer I think view voting as the will of the people. But, the black people of harlem didn't vote to have the nypd as the drug kingpins of harlem in the 1970s they didn't vote to have the nyc/nys/us government defund everything it could in harlem in the 1970s? Under rangel, who represented all of harlem all that happened? so... Black people didn't vote for change. The black elected official community in NYC had a coup over powell and others led by four black men and they succeeded in their coup. I think blacks have been persisitent since 1492 in this country. I don't think persistence is the issue in our dialog or failure to try new things. I think the issue is scale. You like others seem to want a grandiose scale that I don't think is even remotely warranted. @umbrarchist the truth is , the USA military is the real value fo the usa economy, it is that plain and simple. The numbers all prove me right. From 1980 to 2025 what iindustry didn't have a total collapse in the usa? can you name any? Real estate industry had three collapses. Automotive industry had two collapses. Military contractors, arms makers, had a collapse. Airplane firms had three collapses in a history of collapses going back to pan am in the 1960s 1970s. Banks had three collapses the biggest was a complete failure that even the banks couldn't algorithm their way out of. Dot com websites collapse, before the bust steward made his fortune before the bust. The collapse of various pension funds from workers who had put money into those funds, which became totally lost. The collapse of various womens soccer league teams. The collapse of various hashtag currencies, like bitcoin. The collapse of various financial trading environments at least three major ones: enron/madoff [madoff was a scapegoat] are two What is my point? Black people in the usa keep talking about finance like the USA is some sort of successful place. The USA in my opinion, in the black history age of integration in the usa from 1980 to 2025 has been a complete financial failure that has only been kept alive because of a militaristic quality no one else has, and I can give examples in 1980 to 2025 from other white government to prove my point. When the whites who run hong kong, the eurasian billionaires, mishandled the economy of Hong Kong, they couldn't just pump money back into it. What happened is simple. At one time, Hong Kong had seventy percent of the incominc traffic to mainland china, today it has ten percent or less. Their neighbor macau focused on gambling and is striving. Hong Kong's white leaders mismanaged hong kong, but unlike the usa who has a military which allows welfare lifelines to be given to entire failed industries, hong kong has to accept the consequences, the negative sequences from poor financial management. When the whites who run Argentina, the mestizo rich, mishandled the economy of argentina and their entire banking system collapsed, argentina couldn't just write their entire banking system a check and ward off other countries calling in for debt with their military power, they had to accept the consequences, the negative sequences from poor financial management. The USA's economy is completely mishandled, but the power of the usa miitary is so great that it allows the usa the ability to have forty strong years of failed industries across the board have their financial meltdowns paid for by the federal government. Thus maintaining the community of fiscally rich in the usa who in truth all went broke multiple times. IN AMENDMENT THe Covid 19 scenario is again, another financial collapse. The USA military allows financial failure from its wealthiest, the non blacks, to not be rewarded with closure or termination as in liquidation as in a free financial market, but with welfare life lines as in a... militaristic empire, then how can the blacks treat finance as if it is really a numbers game? It isn't a numbers game but a militaristic powers game. Black people in the usa lack militaristic power the most.

I don't think persistence is the issue in our dialog or failure to try new things. I think the issue is scale. You like others seem to want a grandiose scale that I don't think is even remotely warranted. @umbrarchist the truth is , the USA military is the real value fo the usa economy, it is that plain and simple. The numbers all prove me right. From 1980 to 2025 what iindustry didn't have a total collapse in the usa? can you name any? Real estate industry had three collapses. Automotive industry had two collapses. Military contractors, arms makers, had a collapse. Airplane firms had three collapses in a history of collapses going back to pan am in the 1960s 1970s. Banks had three collapses the biggest was a complete failure that even the banks couldn't algorithm their way out of. Dot com websites collapse, before the bust steward made his fortune before the bust. The collapse of various pension funds from workers who had put money into those funds, which became totally lost. The collapse of various womens soccer league teams. The collapse of various hashtag currencies, like bitcoin. The collapse of various financial trading environments at least three major ones: enron/madoff [madoff was a scapegoat] are two What is my point? Black people in the usa keep talking about finance like the USA is some sort of successful place. The USA in my opinion, in the black history age of integration in the usa from 1980 to 2025 has been a complete financial failure that has only been kept alive because of a militaristic quality no one else has, and I can give examples in 1980 to 2025 from other white government to prove my point. When the whites who run hong kong, the eurasian billionaires, mishandled the economy of Hong Kong, they couldn't just pump money back into it. What happened is simple. At one time, Hong Kong had seventy percent of the incominc traffic to mainland china, today it has ten percent or less. Their neighbor macau focused on gambling and is striving. Hong Kong's white leaders mismanaged hong kong, but unlike the usa who has a military which allows welfare lifelines to be given to entire failed industries, hong kong has to accept the consequences, the negative sequences from poor financial management. When the whites who run Argentina, the mestizo rich, mishandled the economy of argentina and their entire banking system collapsed, argentina couldn't just write their entire banking system a check and ward off other countries calling in for debt with their military power, they had to accept the consequences, the negative sequences from poor financial management. The USA's economy is completely mishandled, but the power of the usa miitary is so great that it allows the usa the ability to have forty strong years of failed industries across the board have their financial meltdowns paid for by the federal government. Thus maintaining the community of fiscally rich in the usa who in truth all went broke multiple times. IN AMENDMENT THe Covid 19 scenario is again, another financial collapse. The USA military allows financial failure from its wealthiest, the non blacks, to not be rewarded with closure or termination as in liquidation as in a free financial market, but with welfare life lines as in a... militaristic empire, then how can the blacks treat finance as if it is really a numbers game? It isn't a numbers game but a militaristic powers game. Black people in the usa lack militaristic power the most.

@ProfD and lies tend to live at the fountain of youth I see your goal now. At the moment, in 2025 more black investment firms exist than in decades past, maybe in the history of the usa , or the european colonies preceding so from a mere growth perspective black owned financial instutitions are growing, are greater in quantity now than ever before. So, your goal is for the current growth of black owned financial instutitions: investment firms, credit unions, banks, to expand ... at a rate never known in the history of the usa... Ideally possible, the problem with the expanse your speaking of is it needs something money can't buy. Belief, Love ... in the usa. circa fifty million black people in the usa today, don't have a lot of inspiration.
-
@ProfD Is being human an excuse? the history is money coincides with the history of lost fortunes, this is a human thing... are you suggesting black people int he usa shouldn't be human? Isn't that an uneven double standard? I think a black person over 40 worth 100 million has every right to lose all their money as all the other humans who also have done that in the past week around the world. and Jim Crow, not just slavery, and jim crow. Black money in the usa is really a modern thing, mentioning slavery absent jim crow to any body who doesn't comprehend the financial history of black people in this country is leaving out a huge era of financial pain, that being jim crow. the question is evidence @Troy the mob today isn't of the past, very calculating.

@ProfD I can't recall any moment in my life where any one voted for an elected official and they got what they wanted... in my eyes, they get what they settle for, that isn't what you want.

@ProfD Cause many millionaire athletes, and I am talking across phenotypical lines,across various sports, live above their means. Millions of dollars isn't a lot when you are the breadwinner to not only your home but your clan. And then compound that with being energetic and wanting to party. And then compound that with being very new to money. I repeat Slavery era in the USA was 1492 to 1865 where 95% of black people had no financial relationship cause they were enslaved. Jim Crow era in the USA was 1865 to 1980 where 80% of black people were in legal financial traps by whites in the usa. So, Black people in the USA have only had 45 years and counting, the integration era, to get accustomed to fiscal capitalistic life... not just earning fortunes but losing it. Living above ones means, and being miserly. Now I will defend the black 1%. One of the problems is the black 1% has been business owning/financially engaged since 1492 so from their view within the view, the black 99% should merely be like them. I think about white the NAACP lawyer. The black abolitionists from freeman families before the war between the states who supported frederick douglass. Remember many black people in sierra leone or liberia are descended from Black 1% DOSers who clearly proved my point about how black 1% view the black 99% in their actions on returning home.

@ProfD well her death is convenient in that sense, but glad she has those who still follow her thinking positively. This is the economic corner, build more isn't a goal. How many more Black businesses do you want to see? The answer can't be infinite, can't be everywhere overwhelming, the USA is not a black country nor are the nonblacks absent the means to harm/destroy black business. If you can't give a count, what about a percentage? What percentage of business in the usa do you need Black business to increase as? What percentage of Black business in the usa do you want to increase to? Present goals.

@ProfD there is a very old saying which I find always holds up true, no one can serve two masters. What historical evidence do you have/suggest of any country that is subservient to another, like Nippon to the USA, having a leader who served successfully the interest of the subservient country + the master country?

@ProfD have you or anyone else who follows Welsing asked her the following questions? 1) does she want the black dos population in the usa to get old and die? 2) does she prosyletize to non black dos woman,including black recent immigrant women plus all non black women from wherever: who don't speak english in the usa, are not college educated, on welfare , are not thrity, or have three or better children not to have children fr which NYC has millions? Black people in the usa have nonviolently built wealth in the usa nonviolently having the legacy of enslavement + jim crow forcing most of said wealth to come through individual efforts. The question to you as I ask others in the this forum, is what do you want from the black populace in the usa to be satisfied? I define satisified as a situation where you Profd no longer have a complain to the black populace in the usa. I will ask the specific question at the end of my comment. I asked @Pioneer1 a while back, what will it take for him to be satisfied, meaning the same as you, concerning the issue of illegalities, for Pioneer continually suggest one instance of illegality from one individual in the black populace in the USA is too much and shows urgency. His answer was until the black populace commits no illegalities he will have a complaint. Now Pioneer in my reading has never displayed the same passion to non black or non black doser illegalities in the usa. His variance in approach suggest they are allowables or acceptables to him. So Profd, what will satisfy you financially concerning the black populace or specifically, the black dos populace in the usa?

As I am a known Communalist through my various multilogs in AALBC, it is clear I prefer strong community over strong individuals. Not everybody is going to be strong all the time. But, sharing strength can help the whole group survive storms no individual can handle alone. ... but having said that, the heritage of the Black populace in the usa and the european colonies that preceded it is Nonviolent Individualism. No DOSers from the USA are not like DOSers from Haiti whose heritage is militant communalism. I don't care for nonviolent individualism but I comprehend it is the true heritage of black people in the usa led by DOSers, who are the largest percentage of black people in the usa. Take out the First Peoples of the USA who have their own specific issues with this place, everyone else in the usa never had to deal with enslavement or jim crow to the extent of black people. Not white jews not chinese, not mexicans. All three were abused? yes, 100% but while abused never enslaved, never at the full cruelty of jim crow. So black people in assessing ourselves, must embrace our unique situation first. Black Individualism has limits helping the group but allows black individuals a flexibility which can be useful. URL TO COMMENT https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/11970-what-if-we-focused-on-local-development/#findComment-77177 COMMENT @KENNETH if you want the honey and not the pot, just scroll to my conclusion Idealistically it is a positive thing. But let me use NYC to explain my counter point. Is NYC a black city? no Is NYC a white city? yes does NYC have more disadvantaged communities than any other city in the USA? yes does NYC have disadvantaged white communities? yes, more than any other city in the USA? yes Why can't NYC's white elected officials align with white businesses to aid white communities that are disadvantaged? Because the cost is very high. Aiding the poor is not financially cheap. How does NYC get money every year? the mayor of NYC whomever they are goes to Albany and begs. The federal governments welfare money to states are more vital to every state in the union, including california. But the federal government gives its money to states, not cities, ala when atlanta/detroit/new orleans are any town/village/city that was or is black wants money... they have to beg a white states, thus... What is my point? overall it is very expensive to finance poverty. It requires losing a fortune. Black people with money, correctly, are the least interested in losing money. Remember, the fiscal wealthy Black populace don't come from Indian Killers or Enslavers, they come from enslaved black folk like fiscally poor black people. They are not interested in losing their money. And yes, you have to give up your fortune to improve disadvantaged neighborhoods. Remember andrew carnegie of new york, he gave up his fortune and built many of the libraries that are all over the world, but that wasn't cheap. He needed every penny. Remember in the late eighteen hundreds, circa 1865, the black populace of the usa was denser than ever after, and that is why white people in black states/louisiana/mississippi/south carolina or white people in white states everywhere else, cut open pregnant black women. State power matters in the usa. HArlem Children Zone and the larger field of charter schools had support from the government of NYC and NY state. Remember, most charter schools didn't have to build new buildings, the government allowed most to use buildings they did not buy for repurpose or use public school buildings spaces. That is a financial advantege brought by the government. Second , across all phenotypes most children in NYC, black/non black/ male/female go to public schools. The charter school movement was never about the mass education of any group of children. It was about making another layer for parents who wanted their kids to go to a school like styvesant or bronx science but the seats are filled, so charter schools became a second tier. But remmeber one thing, when a child fails in a charter school, you know where they go... public school. So Canada, whom I ... Canada has said many things but I know the truth. His movement was about a particular sections of parents having their own zone. Now why does this matter? what your talking about isn't about helping a section of the disadvantaged but you want to help a whole disadvantaged community, you have to find actions that actually help a whole disadvantaged community. In the USA those are not easy to find. This like your first is idealistically correct. The problem is, unlike the USA who spent most of the nineteen hundreds revitalizing completely war torn or fiscally mired countries[japan/england/france/germany/spain/portugal /italy/korea/china/mexico /canada ] to gain their allegiance against the soviet union , losing the financial advantage the usa had over all of them. Said countries are not interested in any fiscal deal that will not return something of equal value. Sequentially, the Black DOS populace or even the larger black populace in the usa don't have mineral access, don't have aquaspheres, don't have anything physical to trade with. China gives money throughout afirca/south america/south east asia for minerals/resources. West Africans wealthy pay for high end european goods. DOSers don't have any luxury brand businesses. The Middle Easterners sometimes give for long shots or long term investments, but a welfare line around the world exist to them. As I type this comment, people from every community in humanity are in saudi arabia, qatar , or united arab emirates begging for the oil barons to give them money. I think some DOSers plans may reach them but many want their money. Another Ideal. positive. But I have a little history with this topic in the forum here. You say demand more from so called leaders, being a poor leader, one who doesn't get positive results, doesn't mean your not a leader. But then you want leaders to provide viable solutions. Here is the issue. In the usa no system exist for any voter to demand anything from any elected officials. That is the difference between a parliamentary system and the statian system. In the usa's entire history voting is a gamble. The gamble is, if I vote for you, will want to stay in the position so you will do for the voter, the trick is, I am guaranteeing you a set of time, even if you do nothing for the voter. So, there is no way to demand anything in the usa system. White people don't demand votes. Poor whites don't demand votes. Rich white people buy votes, that isn't even demanding, that is paying for a service. Which black people don't have the money to do. The problem with providing a viable solution is a strategy can only be considered a solution after implementation. No matter how intricate or well spoke a plan, no plan is worth anything until it is implemented. So, I comprehend what your asking, but the legal system in the usa doesn't allow for either. A little history:) of me and one of my solutions,a black party of governance. The Black community in the USA need an alternative to Black officials from the Party of Andrew Jackson or Abraham Lincoln 2022 https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/9211-the-black-community-in-the-usa-need-an-alternative-to-black-officials-from-the-party-of-andrew-jackson-or-abraham-lincoln/ commentary https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1890&type=status What Blacks haven't done? https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1929&type=status Immigration on African Americans https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1941&type=status Black PArty of Governance Post https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1945&type=status Detroit and the state of a Black Party of Governance https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2124&type=status Black Women and the two main parties of governance in the usa https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2137&type=status The lessons in 1865 not learned https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2549&type=status Shirley Chisholm proved the college of black elected officials isn't serious, that is why she left them https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2571&type=status With the 250 year anniversary of the USA maybe black people should celebrate radically https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2776&type=status Multivisions in parties of governance https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2148&type=status Specific needs https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2238&type=status To 1 , Your correct black people don't live as close together as in the late 1800s , but the reason why isn't self inflicted, remember when you were a kid and they showed black people hanging in jim crow, that wasn't a joke. Black elders to their forever dishonor don't like to admit the reason black people left the south was fear based on white terrorism. It is that simple. And like today, even back then, many black people, DOSers in particular, are unwilling to accept violent action. Jim Crow's purpose was not merely to harm black people but to make our communities suffer at the hands of whites so we would break up. whites succeeded, it is not easy undoing that damage. To 2 + 3 In defense they never have, even in the late 1800s there were black tribes nonviolently fighting each other. And remember when the usa was founded most free blacks fought against, so... the most free, most financially wealthy blacks have always been split in themselves and at some level to the larger populace of black people. I argue the problem today is the nonviolent, self determination mantra black people preached to black people has succeeded, the problem is, it isn't enough to reach certain levels of growth as a populace. Black individualism made the modern usa. Black financial wealth has grown in the usa despite historical financial disadvantages strictly to black people , persistent governmental limits specifically to blacks . That is black individuals fighting. BUT, individualism has limits. I will even be nice and say, the Black people like frederick douglass in the past, hoped, dreamed, that Blac Individualism would carry black people to a day when the greater USA embraced individualism the same way. the two problems are, most whites still enjoy and desire the power one can have access to with communal strength over other communities. And most non Black people of color came late to the party so to speak, so they carry a communal nature from the countries they come from and thus it will take their bloodlines more time to reach the individualism that exist in the white anglo saxon protestant slavemaster/black descendend of enslaved/first peoples commonly called the native american. IN CONCLUSION To municipal power, the quickest idea is to get the fiscally wealthy black to support a campaign of breaking up the states in the union. why? no matter what any city in the usa does, if the state government to the state it is in wants to stall or stop, they can and that is that. I rephrase, if you get a willing black city, and willing black fiscal entrepreneurs, a white state government can use its power to hold up anything in the courts. So, your first idea needs state power. Get the wealthy behind that. To private public pooling, great idea but you need to have a specific goal that actually helps a wide swath of black people. At the end of the day, many of the initiatives that helped black people in the usa from 1865 to today, didn't help a wide array, they helped black people in specific places or with specific means or specific scenarios. When the usa gave native american land to white settlers, the condition of the white settler didn't matter. Find a specific thing that can help across the board of black people. To the money outside the USA, the most common invester will want to see an automatic return of wealth or near term wealth growth. You have to find something that the Black populace in the USA has that can do that. Keep looking you will find it. The best strategy to increase the rate of results in the usa system that maintains the philosophical line of black voters is to emphasize parliamentarianism. Most Black people in the usa are :not radical enough, not anti usa enough, not anti white enough, too pro individual, to accept a Black party of governance. But parliamentarianism is the best solution for your desire to get better results. Make it where the time of voting isn't enough. The reason why both major parties of governance in the usa are filled with do nothings is because the only time of consequence is the voting time. Not the time in office. Make the time in office consequence and it will change the rate of results. You will have opposition but I think it is doable. When you assess the black populace in the usa , never forget, that our timeline isn't whites. Black people were enslaved before during and after independence. IF you look at the usa from a important moments for Black people, 1492 to 1865 is one whole era of enslavement. White people have the french-indian war and independence and war of 1812 but from 1492 to 1865 remember, over 95% of black people in the usa are completely enslaved. Over 95% of black people in the usa from 1492 to 1865 were born, lived and died enslaved. No, house in martha's vineyard, no lincoln hat, no wage, no sailor on a whaling ship. I know you know black history. But one of the problems with black history throughout humanity is the timelines for non blacks we black people consider speaking of ourselves. That means 95% of black people were enslaved for almost 400 years. And what came after the period of enslavement from 1492 to 1865 in Black Statian history? the period of Jim Crow. Now what is Jim Crow? Most will say Jim Crow is segregation, but that isn't true. Segregation is the white view of Jim Crow. The Black view is how long it took for black people to nonviolently integrate with the white populace in the usa. Jim crow is from 1865 to 1980. It took over a hundred years for Black people to nonviolently integrate with whites. Why? that was the black plan. When 1865 hit, a bunch of black church elders made a vote on what to do, cause whites were already killing black people after the war between the states for revenge or to take land or to force to sharecrop or to scare us into fleeing. So black churches new. Black churches, voted on the side of nonviolence. [I am working on finding the names of who voted] Remember at 1865 Black churches were the undisputed black leadership in the usa with a totally devoted populace. And what did black people do while whites guted pregnant black women/made up laws to place black men in prison for life to rebuild the south/placed black children in electric chairs/had black people fight in the spanish american war+world war one + world two all awhile no black person could open a bank account, use the bathroom, use the bus , own land, in 99% of places in the usa/black communities in the cities north and west were completely defunded by white governments/law enforcement agencies throughout the usa made money off of peddling drugs to black people sometimes by force while also making money by putting us in jail for the drugs they dumped into our communities .. black people nonviolently and individually suffered the blows embraced all the insults and pains and inequalities and never hurt white people while kept trying to be part of the systems they didn't want us to. With the help of the soviets, some mistakes in administration by whites, by 1980 Jim Crow was officially a little old man. Not dead, but no longer a major factor in the lives of most black people which is how he started in 1865 with what whites call the nadir of american race relations. Remember Alice was in the 1970s. Now we are in the integration era. Black people collectively or individually survived enslavement from 1492 to 1865 gaining no money no wealth losing many traditions by whip by shackle. Black people's collectives were shattered by Jim Crow from 1865 to 1980 but Blac individualism was able to thrive. Now from 1980 to 2025 and the near term, black people have to catch up to whites who have from 1492 to 1980 a near five hundred year head start on being statian absent any of the financial advantages of stolen land from other human beings or enslavement of other human beings and we have to compete with immigrant populaces including some that are black who are smaller in populace, for example ethiopian americans are 380,000 people far less than the forty million DOSers, so easier to move in fiscal capitalism allowed to pronounce and embrace the cultures they came with whereas DOSers were not allowed in enslavement of jim crow to cherish our cultures publicly. So... yes Black people in the usa today have a high level of individualism, but it isn't for nothing. It is unwarranted. Slavery nor Jim Crow were a joke, and we didn't do it to ourselves, and four hundred years is not going to be undone in forty sorry. Anyone black tell you that is a liar. When you see a nigerian/chinese/white jew say Blacks don't know how to do this or that. Remind them that, Nigerians ancestors were not in the slave boats, nigerians ancestors didn't have to deal with enslavement from 1492 to 1865 nor jim crow from 1865 to 1980. There wasn't a day in british west africa where 95% of Black people were told they couldn't have their culture. Where they had to live chained up. Chinese and white jews were starting businesses from 1492 to 1980 in the usa, in places black people were not allowed or could not. Yes, Black Individualism is high, that is how Black DOSers survived nonviolently. Give ourselves a hand. It wasn't easy.

The Black community in the USA need an alternative to Black officials from the Party of Andrew Jackson or Abraham Lincoln 2022 https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/9211-the-black-community-in-the-usa-need-an-alternative-to-black-officials-from-the-party-of-andrew-jackson-or-abraham-lincoln/ commentary https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1890&type=status What Blacks haven't done? https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1929&type=status Immigration on African Americans https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1941&type=status Black PArty of Governance Post https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1945&type=status Detroit and the state of a Black Party of Governance https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2124&type=status Black Women and the two main parties of governance in the usa https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2137&type=status The lessons in 1865 not learned https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2549&type=status Shirley Chisholm proved the college of black elected officials isn't serious, that is why she left them https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2571&type=status With the 250 year anniversary of the USA maybe black people should celebrate radically https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2776&type=status Multivisions in parties of governance https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2148&type=status Specific needs https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2238&type=status To 1 , Your correct black people don't live as close together as in the late 1800s , but the reason why isn't self inflicted, remember when you were a kid and they showed black people hanging in jim crow, that wasn't a joke. Black elders to their forever dishonor don't like to admit the reason black people left the south was fear based on white terrorism. It is that simple. And like today, even back then, many black people, DOSers in particular, are unwilling to accept violent action. Jim Crow's purpose was not merely to harm black people but to make our communities suffer at the hands of whites so we would break up. whites succeeded, it is not easy undoing that damage. To 2 + 3 In defense they never have, even in the late 1800s there were black tribes nonviolently fighting each other. And remember when the usa was founded most free blacks fought against, so... the most free, most financially wealthy blacks have always been split in themselves and at some level to the larger populace of black people. I argue the problem today is the nonviolent, self determination mantra black people preached to black people has succeeded, the problem is, it isn't enough to reach certain levels of growth as a populace. Black individualism made the modern usa. Black financial wealth has grown in the usa despite historical financial disadvantages strictly to black people , persistent governmental limits specifically to blacks . That is black individuals fighting. BUT, individualism has limits. I will even be nice and say, the Black people like frederick douglass in the past, hoped, dreamed, that Blac Individualism would carry black people to a day when the greater USA embraced individualism the same way. the two problems are, most whites still enjoy and desire the power one can have access to with communal strength over other communities. And most non Black people of color came late to the party so to speak, so they carry a communal nature from the countries they come from and thus it will take their bloodlines more time to reach the individualism that exist in the white anglo saxon protestant slavemaster/black descendend of enslaved/first peoples commonly called the native american. IN CONCLUSION To municipal power, the quickest idea is to get the fiscally wealthy black to support a campaign of breaking up the states in the union. why? no matter what any city in the usa does, if the state government to the state it is in wants to stall or stop, they can and that is that. I rephrase, if you get a willing black city, and willing black fiscal entrepreneurs, a white state government can use its power to hold up anything in the courts. So, your first idea needs state power. Get the wealthy behind that. To private public pooling, great idea but you need to have a specific goal that actually helps a wide swath of black people. At the end of the day, many of the initiatives that helped black people in the usa from 1865 to today, didn't help a wide array, they helped black people in specific places or with specific means or specific scenarios. When the usa gave native american land to white settlers, the condition of the white settler didn't matter. Find a specific thing that can help across the board of black people. To the money outside the USA, the most common invester will want to see an automatic return of wealth or near term wealth growth. You have to find something that the Black populace in the USA has that can do that. Keep looking you will find it. The best strategy to increase the rate of results in the usa system that maintains the philosophical line of black voters is to emphasize parliamentarianism. Most Black people in the usa are :not radical enough, not anti usa enough, not anti white enough, too pro individual, to accept a Black party of governance. But parliamentarianism is the best solution for your desire to get better results. Make it where the time of voting isn't enough. The reason why both major parties of governance in the usa are filled with do nothings is because the only time of consequence is the voting time. Not the time in office. Make the time in office consequence and it will change the rate of results. You will have opposition but I think it is doable. When you assess the black populace in the usa , never forget, that our timeline isn't whites. Black people were enslaved before during and after independence. IF you look at the usa from a important moments for Black people, 1492 to 1865 is one whole era of enslavement. White people have the french-indian war and independence and war of 1812 but from 1492 to 1865 remember, over 95% of black people in the usa are completely enslaved. Over 95% of black people in the usa from 1492 to 1865 were born, lived and died enslaved. No, house in martha's vineyard, no lincoln hat, no wage, no sailor on a whaling ship. I know you know black history. But one of the problems with black history throughout humanity is the timelines for non blacks we black people consider speaking of ourselves. That means 95% of black people were enslaved for almost 400 years. And what came after the period of enslavement from 1492 to 1865 in Black Statian history? the period of Jim Crow. Now what is Jim Crow? Most will say Jim Crow is segregation, but that isn't true. Segregation is the white view of Jim Crow. The Black view is how long it took for black people to nonviolently integrate with the white populace in the usa. Jim crow is from 1865 to 1980. It took over a hundred years for Black people to nonviolently integrate with whites. Why? that was the black plan. When 1865 hit, a bunch of black church elders made a vote on what to do, cause whites were already killing black people after the war between the states for revenge or to take land or to force to sharecrop or to scare us into fleeing. So black churches new. Black churches, voted on the side of nonviolence. [I am working on finding the names of who voted] Remember at 1865 Black churches were the undisputed black leadership in the usa with a totally devoted populace. And what did black people do while whites guted pregnant black women/made up laws to place black men in prison for life to rebuild the south/placed black children in electric chairs/had black people fight in the spanish american war+world war one + world two all awhile no black person could open a bank account, use the bathroom, use the bus , own land, in 99% of places in the usa/black communities in the cities north and west were completely defunded by white governments/law enforcement agencies throughout the usa made money off of peddling drugs to black people sometimes by force while also making money by putting us in jail for the drugs they dumped into our communities .. black people nonviolently and individually suffered the blows embraced all the insults and pains and inequalities and never hurt white people while kept trying to be part of the systems they didn't want us to. With the help of the soviets, some mistakes in administration by whites, by 1980 Jim Crow was officially a little old man. Not dead, but no longer a major factor in the lives of most black people which is how he started in 1865 with what whites call the nadir of american race relations. Remember Alice was in the 1970s. Now we are in the integration era. Black people collectively or individually survived enslavement from 1492 to 1865 gaining no money no wealth losing many traditions by whip by shackle. Black people's collectives were shattered by Jim Crow from 1865 to 1980 but Blac individualism was able to thrive. Now from 1980 to 2025 and the near term, black people have to catch up to whites who have from 1492 to 1980 a near five hundred year head start on being statian absent any of the financial advantages of stolen land from other human beings or enslavement of other human beings and we have to compete with immigrant populaces including some that are black who are smaller in populace, for example ethiopian americans are 380,000 people far less than the forty million DOSers, so easier to move in fiscal capitalism allowed to pronounce and embrace the cultures they came with whereas DOSers were not allowed in enslavement of jim crow to cherish our cultures publicly. So... yes Black people in the usa today have a high level of individualism, but it isn't for nothing. It is unwarranted. Slavery nor Jim Crow were a joke, and we didn't do it to ourselves, and four hundred years is not going to be undone in forty sorry. Anyone black tell you that is a liar. When you see a nigerian/chinese/white jew say Blacks don't know how to do this or that. Remind them that, Nigerians ancestors were not in the slave boats, nigerians ancestors didn't have to deal with enslavement from 1492 to 1865 nor jim crow from 1865 to 1980. There wasn't a day in british west africa where 95% of Black people were told they couldn't have their culture. Where they had to live chained up. Chinese and white jews were starting businesses from 1492 to 1980 in the usa, in places black people were not allowed or could not. Yes, Black Individualism is high, that is how Black DOSers survived nonviolently. Give ourselves a hand. It wasn't easy.
