If Democrats care about the poor or minorities or both, why do they keep making decisions which hurt both so often?

Flooding the job market with poor low skilled foreign workers depresses the wages and advancement opportunities in career fields statistically more likely to be held the poor or minorities. Flooding the housing market with people who have to live somewhere raises the price of apartments and houses beyond the ability of the poor to pay, even with sluggishly adapting government assistance. This is a competition landlords win and renters collectively lose. I can go on later, but this is a good start while I’m at work.

They want to create the problems so they can create the fix and look like they care.

You here all the time the solutions, raise minimum wage, control housing costs by government mandates. They think the government is the solution to all the problems they create.

Just like rights, we hear how voter ID makes it hard for poor to vote, but they have no issue with making it hard for poor to own a gun... if they cared about the poor and rights, they would care about ALL THEIR RIGHTS.

Walter Williams talked a lot about how the left’s social programs actually hurt the poor. Thomas Sowell is another great economist who talked about these things.
