 MG> People like them don't understand that by their "help"

 Sounds like Richard Nixon's "benign neglect".

 MG> tell people all their lives "you can't do that" eventually
 MG> they believe that they *CAN'T* do it. OTOH if you tell

 Of course, if a black person has a master's degree, and still
 can't make as much as a white person with a master's degree, she
 will claim it's because he "thinks" he can't. She will deny to
 her death that there were any obstacles in his way. It's all in
 bad thinking... sheesh.

 MG> people "you can do that" they learn they can. Expecting

 Of course, if you tell them they can do that or starve, then
 don't do a damn thing to see that they have the opportunity,
 then you can always blame them for what you shut them out of.

 What they would react most to is the state of denial people like

 Notice, not one of those on her side will even say they ever
 discussed this with a black person.

 MG> You could be correct. :)

 Unlike the SHLDS, we think for ourselves.

 Yet Ackley and Wilson and Klahn have all spent more time working
 than you have, have been self supporting, not dependent on the
 govt for much longer, and don't feel the need to fix blame for
 a situation you deny exists, then blame others for it. Sheesh.

 MG> Oh you naughty boy, you. :)

 Your mind in the gutter with his? Not surprising.
