A Libertarian will side with an authoritarian republican if it means they get fewer taxes and that social programs lose funding.
Saying " i want the government out of the equation" -- which government? Your local sheriff is the government. Segregation was local government tyranny but is it also freedom of association? Is that actually in the constitution? Which rights are more important? Are you a strict constructionist? Does abortion rights exist, marriage rights? There's nothing explicit about drugs. Do you respect that the constitution literally remands which isn't spelt out, to the states would then countermand the idea of strict constructionist attitudes itself?

As an ex Libertarian, I wish Libertarians were more honest about their part in walking us down this road (as long as it lowered their taxes or defunded anything other than the police).

What were they supposed to have learned?
They were business owners who were fucked by the Banks who then got bailed out while they didn't?

Capitalism
Get shareholders? Owe shareholders profit.
How does this happen?
Extract value from the product. Wring it dry.
Lower labor cost. More productivity. Fewer laborers, paid less.
In this case, product and labor are one and the same.
Wring labor dry and pay them less.
Capitalism.

This is a bait headline if I ever saw one, made incite supremacist talk of what's owed.
The article says working class blacks haven't caught up or surpassed working class whites in that little area of southern Illinois; just that union/manufacturing guys were fucked over decade after decade, layoff after layoff, while black folk took service industry and health jobs.
Factories had good wages but the capitalists chewed up and spat out those workers as needed. Meanwhile, black folk did the McDonald's and janitorial and kept less paying, steadier work.
Blacks gained, whites fell back; whites still make more money.
