The Democrat Party Still Owns Slaves Today

Over the last year or so, we have heard and seen the effects of Democratic policies in the large urban environment such as Ferguson, Baltimore, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago and so on. I understand those places did not flip overnight. However, these cities have been run by Democrats with their policies at the forefront for decades. Now, we are seeing the accumulative effect of what will happen if Democrats run an area for a long time. Imagine what this country would look like if Democrats had the White House for decades. We will have another Detroit, which is bankrupt. Literally. It filed in 2013 for bankruptcy.

In this case, we have a large city that had a lot of money at one time. Democrats were able to take seat 50 years ago and Republicans could never get back in to regain balance. So, now here we are. We have a city that is a direct correlation between democratic policies and poverty. Poverty is a self-induced form of slavery in this case. In a city like Detroit, we have a larger minority population, which is 82.7%. The Democrat Party is elected by the citizens of this city. They put them there. I am sure the only reason they vote for Democrats is because there was a ‘D’ behind the politician’s name. The Democrat Party should be called the Santa Clause Party. It loves to give out entitlements. Liberals love to give away other people’s money for the trade in votes. As long as the entitlement money gets them a vote, they will give, give, and give. When people subject themselves to wanting entitlements instead of the taste of hard work and learning what it is like to work hard for what they get, they sacrifice freedom and liberty. When one gives up freedom, what do they obtain? Yes, slavery. It is the way the world works, like it or not.

The Democrat Party is this era’s party of slavery. Democrats know that their policies do not have a fight against conservative policies, so they must use money and entitlements to keep votes coming in. However, we now have people that have been told that they are oppressed and held back by the Democrats, and it is true. But those who are being held back are being done so by two entities: The Democrats who are lying to them, and themselves for not taking steps towards freedom by way of choice in voting. And I am talking about everybody who votes Democrat. Not just minorities. I am calling out the rich who do it as well. Who really thinks the rich wants to vote for a party that will tax them at a severely high rate for their success? Who wants their money taken by a government because they chose to work hard, sacrifice and never give up, even when they failed before? If you do not think those who are in the 1% are not getting closed door, under the table tax breaks, if they donate enough to the Democrat Party, then you are a fool.

I have a secret to tell you. I am going to say this very loud, so you do not misunderstand me and miss something important. Okay? Democrats don’t care about you. They only care about votes so they can continue in power. If they really cared about you, if they really wanted you to have the best life with the best opportunities possible, they would change their policies. They would lower taxes so that more companies, big or small, would have money to pay more employees, instead of going to the government. They would push to stop illegal immigration for your safety. They would push for the repeal of Obamacare and open up the health insurance market so that competition would drive down prices, really making it affordable. They would not spy on Americans through the NSA. They would allow you to exercise your religious rights and not have you shut down because you chose not to be part of something that violates your religious rights. The list could go on and on.

The Democrat Party likes to paint itself as the party of compassion, equality, love, hope and all of those adjectives that do not describe it accurately at all. It does not care about its voters’ lives. Here is an example. If a Democrat leader sees a voter of theirs walking towards a cliff and the voter does not know it is there, he or she may say, “Hey, there is a cliff in front of you.” But if the voter says, “Yeah, well, I don’t care, I’m still walking this way,” and the Democrat politician says, “Oh, OK,” and lets them walk off the cliff, what compassion, equality, love and hope is that? It is not. And the Democrat Party is none of those things. If it had love and compassion it would run over and physically stop that person. That would be love and compassion.

Simply put, the Democrat Party has been the party of overt slavery from the inception of political parties until the time of LBJ. Now, the Democrat Party acts as if it really cares about minorities. Now it is the party of covert slavery. LBJ, a Democrat, set up what we have today. When the Civil Rights Act went into law, he did not like that minorities were placed on an equal pedestal. He needed a way to stop the advancement. And he succeeded.

Now, we have a Democrat Party that is still in the job of slavery. It knows if Democrats see that conservatism makes paths of freedom, liberty, success and prosperity, it may lose votes, thus losing political power. As we see in Detroit with bankruptcy and poverty in large cities like Baltimore, the Democrats need to lose their political jobs.

The only way to get out of the hold that Democrats have over minorities is to have a Conservative that comes in and starts to implement policies for the people’s prosperity instead of government. There is a reason that the Founding Fathers saw the need for a small government. That is because big government will not get out of its own way. The people need to be able to work. The people are the ones that will thrive. Government does not need to thrive. The people do.

When government thrives, slavery exists. There are many large cities that have a large poverty rate. The reason is because government is thriving.

The Democrats have been slave owners since the 1800’s and are still today in 2015.

The only way to end this covert slavery of the Democrat Party is voting for true Conservatives. They truly believe in freedom, liberty and justice for all.
