[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 3984927, member: 23516"] These are the people who were used to justify LBJ's War on Poverty. They were told that they weren't responsible for their lot, that society had neglected and ignored them. They were told that the government was going to dump a bunch of money in those areas in order to create sustainability and eradicate poverty. Fifty years later the programs made nary a dent of progress in those areas and not much has changed. I'm not defending the culture there (it's ridiculous and always has been), but people of your political stripe didn't have a problem with these people (and their culture) until they eventually ceased being a guaranteed block of blue votes.
