[QUOTE="Jose Santana, post: 545613, member: 57963"] Here comes the Liberal! Folks I must apologize but I am a firm believer that poor black people in that area - are there due to circumstances set up by years of oppression that is still evident. I am sure many blacks are abusing the system, but a majority are not! I think given the opportunity of education and employment similar to that of white folks it would not be this way. I am not arguing this belief, I am just stating my beliefs! Maybe, just maybe when the rebuild comes, the jobs created will give BLACKS an EQUAL opportunity to share in the wealth and job market.... There is going to be plenty of money and jobs created. There are probably 2 sets of opinions here, #1 is blacks are lazy and don't want to work they love the welfare life. #2 is blacks are disenfranchised and generally left with low paying jobs that do not cut it when the bills roll in. I think #2 is where I stand. I feel if there is some sort of fairness and equality we should see many black workers down there making equitable money as white workers when the rebuild comes. Again as I posted before, if they make up even 20% of the labor force I will be suprised! Furthermore they will still be paid 1/2 as much as white laborers with similar skills for reasons unknown. I'd take that bet to the bank! Now we have more issues, will the jobs be fairly distributed or do we need someone to watch over this to be sure that blacks are not excluded. For the anti-affirmative action people, if we rely on hoping for fairness by the area government and contractors what will be the recourse if we see it is totally out of whack - an apology? Will there be crying if Jesse Jackson monitors it for fairness or will we see the justification? [/QUOTE]
