Resources are by default scarce, so yes allocating resources is economics
However much of this does fall under the responsibility of the government, so economics is somewhat influenced by the government, but we are free market so not entirely
E.g. The government did not commission the creation of TheColi.com, @Brooklynzson decided to allocate his resources to invest in the project

Exactly

I agree with your post, but will they get a minority idk. Only one I see coming up next to run is Elizabeth Warren. Cuomo & Gillibrand plan to run in 2020 also. However, even after the election politics is on my mind. Reason being, is because my city is corrupt. We just got a new mayor and it's important to be involved politically and community wise.


Anyway, I'm for both establishing relations with our African allies and building here. Remember, Black Wallstreet was formed in Oklahoma. Then, that was raided by Whites in the riots in 1921. If we come together we can do it again. I still have hope in the AA Community, but I do worry about our community the most. Other Black nationalities are banding together. I like the Nigerian tradition. We need some sort of structure in the home.

I agree, but to be honest I hate hearing that Black Wallstreet story. It's put out there for a reason. Kind of a backhanded compliment to say only one time did Black people ever try to segregate, and it was bombed. Kind of a scare tactic. When there were numerous accounts of segregation that was successful

The more they make that a utopia, the harder they want the Black public to think it would be to replicate it

It is like religion when the constituents are ignorant and uninformed

they're uninformed when it comes to the issues so they just chose a candidate based on his/her likability and emotional resonance thus treating the politician like a demigod

even though the politician is technically suppose to represent the people

I truly believe all the stuff going on in the news is to distract Black people to not rise up and form our own nation :francis:
