THINK ABOUT

For those Americans still capable of actually thinking with a sense of honesty,
THINK ABOUT
Part I:
10 Poorest Cities in America and how did it happen?
City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level
1. Detroit , MI 32.5%
2. Buffalo , NY 29.9%
3. Cincinnati , OH 27.8%
4. Cleveland , OH 27.0%
5. Miami , FL 26.9%
5. St. Louis , MO 26.8%
7. El Paso , TX 26.4%
8. Milwaukee , WI 26.2%
9. Philadelphia , PA 25.1%
10. Newark , NJ 24.2%
What do the top ten cities (over 250,000) with the highest poverty rate all have in common?
Detroit , MI (1st on the poverty rate list) hasn't elected a Republican mayor since 1961
Buffalo , NY (2nd) hasn't elected one since 1954
Cincinnati , OH - (3rd) since 1984
Cleveland , OH - (4th) since 1989
Miami , FL - (5th) has never had a Republican mayor
St. Louis , MO - (6th) since 1949
El Paso , TX - (7th) has never had a Republican mayor
Milwaukee , WI - (8th) since 1908
Philadelphia , PA - (9th) since 1952
Newark , NJ - (10th) since 1907
THINK ABOUT IT!
Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.'
It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats...yet they are still POOR.
THINK ABOUT IT!
Part II:
"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves."
...........Abraham Lincoln
THINK ABOUT IT!
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the government take care of him had better take a closer look at the American Indian.” - Henry Ford
