On the Fact that Just Prior to the Civil Rights Movement, Elderly Black People Never Got Mugged, Young Black Children Never Got Slaughtered In Drive-By Shootings, and Black Families Were More Intact than White Families

 I have an idea. How 'bout instead of doubling-down on measures that may in fact be counter-productive and which are contributing mightily to our $30,000,000,000,000 debt (it's actually six to eight fold that when you throw in unfunded liabilities; Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, veteran's benefits, pensions for government workers, etc.), we backtrack a little and try to deconstruct what exactly went wrong? Worth a shot, no?
