The liberal solution is no solution. The liberal message is false. The liberal approach has harmed every generation of young black males in my life time.

But as usual, you respond to the messenger and not the message.
What have Republicans done to help young black males that didn't involve trickling?

Is this a rhetorical question?

The problem is the nanny state. Minimum wage and some (not all) other employment legislation benefits some at the expense of others. Is that statement true or false in your view? And if true, who wins and who loses with minimum wage legislation?
The problem with the nanny state, however, is that it give disproportionate support to businesses vs. the lower/working class. There is a long history of that.

That said, most if not all legislation benefits one party at the expense of another; if it weren't the case, the condition(s) probably wouldn't need to be legislated in the first place.

Bullshit.

Speculation usually does more harm than good, especially since so much of it would be more aptly labelled "gambling."
