Under Roosevelt’s WPA things were built by local people and the money stayed in the local area helping the local economy, but these days public projects are built by corporations and the money leaves the area.

When a Congresscritter gets a new road built, that road might ease traffic congestion, but it provided few, if any, local jobs and the profits went somewhere else, which is why the Federal government may be spending a lot of money in the South, but the poverty picture isn’t changing because not much of it stays here.

Of course, logic and facts are no use against prejudice.

And brown or black skin is RARE. I’d estimate one black face and one brown for every twenty Caucasian.

ok, that image just made my day. 😀
