Anyone can make it in 2018,it depends on the individual you can always work two jobs,but if you can do enough over at the one job you will make more money because it's time and a half pay. It also has to do with how you manage your money has a lot to do with it. And always put something aside each pay period very important to save. My great grandma worked as a maid and made whiskey and sold it back in 1920 bought her a very nice home,always had money. Yes in the USA you can make it.

In modern day leftist politics, there exists an illogical way of "defaming" your opposition. It's simple, and for some reason very effective. You just call them racist. Who'd-a-thunk-it? Now, at the same time, we've heard of psychological warfare tactics that come in the form of "blame them for what you do". A reverse-psychology of sorts; because if you blame somebody of something, there's a 100% chance that you don't/didn't do the same thing, right?... Wrong, this is an overplayed tactic that the left has been using for sometime (as long as I can remember). It actually resembles more of a subconscious defense mechanism deployed by the mentally unstable because of their lack of ability to argue with Truth on their side. The reason I make this point of the underlying "game" that is being played is because we have empirical evidence presented to us in our very own History books of the big lie that is being portrayed on us. The left has and is blaming the right for the very thing that their party has obsessed on since the mid 1800's. Where-as the Republican Party, has historically been in favor of virtually all anti-racist laws. The List 1857: Democrat Supreme Court Justices ruled that slaves are not citizens and could not expect protection from the federal government. The final tally was 7-2, the only votes in favor of the slave were Republicans, all of the the votes against the slave were Democrats. 1863: Abraham Lincolns Emancipation Proclamation stated that all slaves were now to be free. Lincoln was assassinated 6 days after the Civil War by a Democrat named John Wilkes Booth. 1864-1869: Amendments 13-15; outlawed slavery (Amendment 1), made citizens of people who were born in the US, protected all citizens from unfair treatment by the states (Amendment 2) and protected citizens right to vote regardless of race and color (Amendment 3). All of the votes, House and Senate, including revisions, were split down party lines- Republicans in favor of, Democrats against. 1865: The Black Codes, created by the Democrats, these codes prevented blacks from things like owning businesses, owning property and voting. 1866: The KKK, another Democrat creation, formed as a "military like" presence to combat radical Republicans, enforce black codes and terrorize anyone who opposed their ideology (sound familiar). 1870's-1965: Jim Crow Laws, created by Democrats, basically a continuation of the Black Codes. Included things like segregation and played a part in restricting jobs and education. 1860's-1920's: Lynchings, used by the KKK as a way to strike fear into the hearts and minds of mainly black Americans and others who opposed their ideology. 1871: The Enforcement Act, not one Democrat voted for this bill that would punish violence perpetrated by the KKK. The bill did pass, however President Cleveland (another Democrat) repealed most of the bill roughly 15 years later. 1922: Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill did eventually pass but was filibustered by Democrats. 1960: Civil Rights Act, set forth for voter protection had a 78% Democrat disapproval rating determined by vote. 1964: Civil Rights Act, would end discrimination regardless of race, sex and religion, also provided more voter protection. Roughly 33% of Democrats voted against compared to roughly 19% of Republicans who voted against. Democrats also filibustered for 60 days. 1963-1969: Lyndon Johnson, he was quoted as saying "I'll have them n*ggers voting Democrat for 200 years" around the same time that he passed his infamous "Great Society" bills, which consisted of welfare, assisted housing and other programs of that nature. We'll discuss the "Great Society" and it's harm to mainly black Americans but also to poor folks of every color a little later. 1996: Hillary Clinton made a comment that inner-city blacks are super-predators and should be brought to heel. [8] 2018: Many Democrat talking heads made derogatory remarks about Kanye West after he visited the White House to talk with President Trump. One labeled Kanye West as a "token negro" and another said "Kanye West is what happens when negroes don't read." Wow, this list has some major talking points that should be answered for by Democrat leaders, especially the ones making the baseless claims that Conservatives are racist. Keep in mind, the only opposition that Democrats had since the mid-1800's is the Republican party; meaning that Democrats were basically always against the equal treatment of black Americans and on the contrary, Republicans were basically always for the equal treatment of black Americans. But now, with the wave of a magical wand, Republicans are racist.

Going to work in these modern slave labor factors or farm picking field is another day fight to stay in one's job as you have to battle keep your job facing racism and covert bullying, intimidation to the point openly physically harrasing people in gang style mob. The policy that's in place is not designed to protect workers, it's there only to protect company as it's a battle to get support for people of colour reporting racism in workplace that leaves them cripple with fear loosing their job if they complain, not only that but fear of being physically hurt . this leaves them mentally drained to the point ended up in job poverty.

@@TheBLACKMQQN & @vance little: There's several reasons, not all of which have been solved in the 40 years since 1960... Girls were expected to marry; the poorer the family, the younger the girl. Married girls were expected to fulfill their marital duties; according to the husbands desires & without benefit of any birth control - there's no such thing as 'No'. Welfare services, during this time & for several decades after, mounted concerted efforts to isolate fathers from the home; through threats & promise, leveraging people's basic necessities & whether or not they'll receive any. While this focus was primarily waged in black families at the time; all poor communities were targeted to some extent.

In the 1950s and 60s, the platforms of the democrats and republicans switched places, due to the so-called [Southern Strategy](en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy) When the civil rights movement began in the 50s, Republican leadership *actively* sought the votes of white southerners. Until that point, white southerners had been staunchly Democrat, which had been the party of the remainder of the confederacy. The presidential platforms of both Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon attempted to nationalize Jim Crow laws, which were 'in danger' of being dismantled. Nixon's public policies (many of which are still enforced today) were centered almost entirely on keeping control over the "other" races. This was all acknowledged in 2005 when GOP leadership apologized for "past mistakes". Also, this is not ancient history. Some of the people, and certainly most of the children we saw interviewed in this piece are alive today, probably including the guy claiming that migrant workers are "the happiest race of people on the planet".

Freedom always creates inequality. Nothing you can do about that. Every regime which comes in to eliminate it, only escalates the problem tenfold. The "holy" communist russia came in with the theme of eliminating poverty and starvation, instead they starved out 6 million purely on accident. This world is a hard place. The problem is westerns are given too much. I think it is great many have privilege and it is distributed amongst all the races, but too many spoiled kids whiny and cry about poverty to either join it or accept it. Goerge orwell noted this. There needs to be some accountability for your actions. Saying these poor souls got here out of no where is a lie. Now days, for instance, if you do not do 4 things, the chance of you being poor is reduced by 90 percent. So although we can have empathy for those in need, we must also accept their hand or parents hand in the situation they are in. I think if we as a society do this, say no more kids out of wedlock, no more 16 yr olds without jobs, no more hard drugs, we can create a place without poverty but that would mean accepting responsibility and that my friend is not an easy thing to do.

June 22, 2023 At Least 16.8 Million Illegal Aliens are in the U.S., Costing Taxpayers As Much as $163 Billion Annually, Finds New Analysis by FAIR (June 22, 2023, Washington, D.C.) An analysis by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) of the most recent Census Bureau data reveals that at least 16.8 million illegal aliens now reside in the United States. This figure represents an increase of 1.3 million just since the beginning of 2022, and 2.3 million since President Biden took office in January 2021. Along with the sharp increase in the illegal alien population comes sharp increases in costs to American taxpayers. The unprecedented rate of influx of new illegal aliens over the past year would add $12.6 billion annually to the costs of illegal immigration, bringing the cumulative net cost to at least $163 billion a year. At the current pace of illegal immigration, the annual net cost will exceed $200 billion by 2026.

I had the honor of speaking with my sons great grandmother. It was humbling to see a woman retired and successful whom had discribed living in old train carts. Staying warm by the fire. Her and her siblings used the same bathwater heated by fire. The girls went first then in order of youngest first and oldest last. They didn’t go to school until what would be considered late mid- school early high school, because her dad had to work throughout the country. This took place in the mid 1960s. Then speaking with my sons great grandfather- which was much more um awkward. He shared artwork that won awards in college. Jim crow-esque artwork. He described having a few "nannys." He drove us to the cotton field that was STILL intact where he'd sneak off to chase/ follow the nanny children. He shared he did not understand why he was in school and they weren't- they were working. The nannys all raised him in lieu of his mother whom drank and when she wasn't a drunken fool she would be sneaking out men who weren't his dad. I feel so lucky that BOTH my son and I were able to hear these stories. My grand parents are dead and my dad never knew him, but briefly meeting him once I was 21yo. My bfs step dads mom and bfs bio dads dad were where we heard these stories from and while they aren't my grandparents- I still cherish their stories and am so happy my son got this experience. I never had that opportunity just photos and stories from my mom, aunts and uncles. So if any of you have a chance to sit down with their loved ones and ask what life was like as a child- I highly encourage you to do it now- record it, keep it forever, because that was there story told by them and eventually all youll have is stories from others.

I never was among the poor of the south or the worst conditions within the city I lived. *I was in total shock when I saw JEW-TOWN for the first time.* (shopping center in Chicago that's actually a slur towards the Jewish community.) (Eliminated now.) I've known hard times, but nothing ever like what these people suffered, to include the white ones. The children in this documentary are my age.

[@lorenzacoleman9210]

For someone to call these suffering people the happiest people on earth is a down right shame. It takes be back to the notion of the happy slave of the south which is how slave owners defended slavery.

This broke my heart. My partners grandfather was one of these workers, traveling back and forth from the southern states to Jamaica to send money to his family. He was one of the few lucky ones to be able to settle down and raise his children to have a better chance with higher education. He got lucky that way, unfortunately so many of these families werent so lucky. It hurts to know that this horrific treatment of migrant workers has not ever stopped either. The migrant workers of today are still facing the same circumstances, the same treatment and extremely low wage. This is modern day slavery. Its been like this for so long and I wish it would change but I cant see it being changed. People didnt care then about these poor black and white families and they dont care now about the poor Central American and Mexican families. They see them as lesser, as just labor to be used, not worthy of respect or better working conditions. Its horrific. It needs to change.

If they were getting a $1 an hour then this documentary would have never needed to be made. Maybe you didn't watch the whole documentary, but did you not hear that it cost $15 a wk just to rent a room? Did you not see the signs that showed that it was 22 cents just for a shake? Did you not hear the preacher talk about how the crew captains would take half the pay of some of the workers, leaving them with cents. I dont know what world you live in, but a dollar a day, even in 1960 was incredibly low wage.

@@tinyspaceroadie Actually my point in putting that up there was so that we could see the value of a dollar from 1960 verses what it is in today's market which is nothing. If you listen to what the preacher said the crew leader was ripping these poor farm workers by keeping all of the money. That's why they couldn't survive. If you feel like you need to attack someone I'm not the for it because it is extremely obvious that these people were living way below poverty. Alene Keen couldn't afford to take her son to the doctor to remove a nail from his little foot. She couldn't afford to put her babies in daycare leaving them to fend for themselves during the day.

1957 Civil Rights Act Republican President Dwight Eisenhower called out the 101st Airborne to protect Black school children from Democrat protesters after a Democrat governor refused to implement a desegregation order written by the Republican Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Republican Attorney General Herbert Brownell originally proposed the Civil Rights Act of 1957. Democrat Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson had Judiciary chairman Sen. James Eastland drastically water-down the House version, removing stringent voting protection clauses The bill passed 285-126 in the House with Republicans providing the majority of votes 167-19 and Democrats 118-107. It then passed 72-18 in the Senate, with Republicans again supplying the majority of votes, 43-0 and Democrats voting 29-18. Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, who later ran for president, voted in favor of an amendment to water down the bill. Kennedy's 1957 book, Profiles in Courage, celebrated the vote of Sen. Edmund Ross to acquit Pres. Andrew Johnson, the first step in ending Republican Reconstruction reforms and paving the way for the Democrat era of Jim Crow laws and the segregation era. The 1957 Civil Rights Act was the first federal civil rights legislation passed by the United States Congress since the Republicans passed the Civil Rights Act of 1875. Johnson told Sen. Richard Russell, "These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again.

Watching from Cameroon, West Africa and I started off thinking this was some country in Africa, since most African countries got their independence in 1960, the same year this documentary was made. My part of Cameroon (British Southern Cameroons) became independent in 1961, a year after this came out and as someone born in 1992, it's interesting to see how life was back in the 1960s. I am wondering how many of the kids got to fulfil their dreams. I'm shattered by the fact that most of the people didn't have housing but half a million Dollars was spent building stables for horses and 6 million spent on migratory wildlife. Glad that even though challenges remain today, the world has made an almost complete turn-around from the hardships of those days. Sadly, this is still very much the case in some parts of Africa where I've been such as parts of Madagascar, Chad and Gambia. Would have loved to see a follow-up edition like 30 years later to see what became of the kids from the extremely large families. The white lady with 9 kids blew my mind by the way as I didn't know that whites would have such large families too.

Before you pray you must REPENT. Either you do or you are abomination to God He who turns away his ear from listening to the law, Even his prayer is an abomination. - Proverbs 28:9 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But the prayer of the upright is His delight. The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, But He loves one who pursues righteousness. - Proverbs 15:8-9 When you say "genders" God made only two, man a woman, period. God will not bless a wicked person who is a man and identifies as a woman and vice-versa, neither one who identifies as having "just a different sexual preference " you get my point, He will not bless a person as to have salvific grace but only common grace...so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. - Matthew 5:45 Meaning God feeds one but if the one does not repent he'll end up in hell..Period. Also when you say "the person who harvested your might have been deported " if you are illegal go back to your country and get legal, God hates illegal immigrants who brake His law..Romans 13:1-5, 1 Peter 2:13-17,Titus 3:1 When you say "abundance due to them" Who owes them?? Do you owe them? Me? Who? God is the giver of all....The eyes of all look to You, And You give them their food in due time. You open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing. - Psalm 145:15-16 Does God owes anything to a person?? No, of course not, He is gracious and gives, but He is under any obligation to feed no one, We deserve nothing but His just wrath. We disobeyed in the garden and died so we are under acurse...We killed his Son so we are under a curse..we are guilty, We must REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND OR ELSE..PERIOD. SO REPENT AND BELIEVE IN THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUSCHRIST FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.
