American democracy

When Biden asserted that the nation’s democracy was at stake in the election, the people understood. The lies of Trump and his followers dissolved before the impact of President Biden’s words. And Americans are once again able to unite and build an even stronger country.

The possibility of succeeding financially in America has created an excessively competitive society. There is an illusion of general concern for the welfare of fellow citizens. That concern stops at providing affordable health care, sufficient income for families with children, and the affordable education that can prepare one for employment that provides a living wage.

One wonders what the reaction will be when Blacks realize from the primary election results that many whites no longer respect America as a democratic republic.

The question now becomes whether the impact of Black poverty on the economy is sufficient to induce policymakers to remedy the problem.
