Ben Carson, at
CPAC, saying welfare is worse for the Black community than slavery:
“When
you look at what the Black community has been through, go all the way back to
slavery. It was the family, the strong family units and the faith in God that
got people through that, that got people through Jim Crow, through severe
segregation, through all the difficulties. But what really had
a negative impact was when the government came along said, ‘There, there, you
poor little thing, I’m going to take care of all your needs’ and started
implementing policies that were destructive to the family formation. Those are
the things that have hurt the Black communities the most.”
I’ll
remind you again: Carson is a brain surgeon.
And
yet he’s brain dead. Slavery was good for families, you know, until the Master
sold your mother and your sister, or worse, raped them; or when he murdered your father or sold him off.
