Just think what $6 billion to $8 billion could do for America's schools, or healthcare in America, or for creating green industry for American jobs.

Re: Congress Set to Waste 57 Percent of Our Taxes
Yeah .... especially coupled with the other $6 billion in cash that the government had to admit just "went missing." Which is why when the Republicans want to complain about "government waste," or the "exploding deficit" or that the President is "spending us into the poor house" .... it makes me wish that somebody would just punch them in the face and tell them to shut the hell up!!

I understand your point, but everything starts somewhere, but, what is happening in African America and to our young people is like a cancer, and before we can eradicate this cancer, we have to also deal with the source of it, or it will always come back, [as it always does].

They should be implementing an all black-school that specifically teaches black history in pre-school and elementary levels. Cuz I'ma gonna tell ya.

I haven't be a minor since 1963 and had 2 daughters by that age. That "minor" shit is about a step and one half from the "nigger" shit. If you notice, they're not "minorities," just people of color.
