Why Black People Are At The Bottom?

[The Coochie Assassin]

Integration ended the black small business and keeping the black dollar in the community....as soon as black people (the middle class blacks) were allowed to spend money in white places they dipped out with the quickness. White businesses aren't stupid. They didn't end segregation just cause of the Civil Rights Movement and finally understanding its so wrong. They did it to get that black money cause everyone knows we love to spend money, even when we don't have it like that. I think subconsciously, many black people feel other races provide better service just because. I don't think it has anything to do with prices or quality cause if that was the case most of these arab and asian places woulda been wit outta business.

12 people living off 100k a year is no different than 2 people living of 20k a year.

You don't have to open a business to send your kids to college.

And no opening businesses isn't way more important than a college degree. Money, wealth, prosperity is worldwide, the route to that is through education, not opening a hair store in the hood.

U are a fool if u think owning your own business is not more stable and "important" than a college degree.

U can pass down a successful company. U can't pass down a bachelors degree.

A steady income and making the right decisions with that income, is the road to prosperity not opening a business.

I just think opening a need based business, such as a corner store, will provide a more stable career path than any other option available and that's really what matters most.

I disagree. Corner stores fail and close everyday. Regardless of what kind of business you open money is limited in your local communty. If you are to open a business your business model should be worldwide not local. A poor neighborhood only has so much money to give, no matter how you run your business.

You're better off getting a telemarketing job than opening a corner store. At least you have flexibility to move around and follow the markets/opportunities for more money.

90% of businesses fail within the first 5 years. Getting a degree is stable, guaranteed, world wide transferable money.

That opening a business isn't the end all be all answer that people like to say it is.

That wasnt the implication that it was the end all be all, the point is that it's something that is missing

I don't think it's missing. There are plenty of black owned businesses. I don't see the benefit in pushing to take over low profit hair stores from Asians.

I agree with nearly every post in here. But I just want to say a couple things about it..

Racism isn't going anywhere you can't change a groups nature... especially if that's what they've shown you for thousands of years. We live on Earth no one likes any one else, the main racism that you have to defeat is the mental hate we have for our own people. Even blacks without the self hate... basically have no love or dedication to community . Plus we divide ourselves between black folk, and nikkas. That's fukked up. Just because you've made it and you slipped through the crack that doesn't give you the right to say-- "it's just me and my fam.. fukk these nikkas. "

I have 7 people to take care of.. and I don't think this way.

Business is the way to go. I guess. But it takes money to make money. It takes little kids getting their brains programed before the age of 11. We need money makers first, that trickles down to a certain % of your 'people' owning businesses. We need IT and medical professions. At least 70% of our children should be pushed towards those things.

"flipside, the asains, arabs, koreans coming from across seas get a 7 year tax break."
Yes, there are advantages that others have who come into the black community. We aren't united enough to boycott this shyt so fukk it.

Also, nikkas will fukk you over. Me n my boy hook so many nikkas up - blew up in our faces. Either way, the reason for this is that we produce ignorant mentalities from an early age--- we need to realize that this was set up for us to fail and our mentalities were set up so that we will be the main reason we will fail.

There is a such a thing called white guilt... I guess it affects some things, but black guilt is much worse.

We are brainwashed to want to be a part of the anglo saxon americanism ideology. We feel validated by being able to mingle with the majority.
Other groups (chinese, indians, Jews, koreans, even some mexicans) can form their own economic blocks and communities and consider that the right thing to do.

IF we do it... Half our community right away won't support it because we are brainwashed. The other half are made to feel guilty and made to feel like "black racist" because they're focusing on the black economy. nikkas also, as you stated, are conditioned to be comfortable with these other people in our communities. IT's not a conscious thing.. It's just what we're used to. If your under the age of 95, you don't know anything else in your lifetime.

Segregation doesn't mean isolation, and black people are the only group who are retarded enough to believe that BS. Our spending power is = to a nation within itself.. and we are the only ones that don't keep our money for more than 45 seconds.

its ignorant to sneer at a 90% failure rate, that 10% is the foundation of american prosperity and it would be the foundation of black propserity

Census Bureau Reports the Number of Black-Owned Businesses Increased at Triple the National Rate - Business Ownership - Newsroom - U.S. Census Bureau

I don't see the point in preaching that that's the only/best way to go. Hair stores, restaurants, corner stores, ect pay their employees at or below minimum wage. Their employees are broke and on welfare.

How does it benifit black people to open a bunch of businesses that can't pay the employees enough to take care of their families?

That "foundation" was set 400 years ago with cheap labor. Times have changed local money isn't enough. Business plans that don't concentrate on the entire world will not last.

I'm with you. If niccas rather hustle than work, oh well. There is a BBQ spot in Lafayette, California called Bo's. classy spot, even comes with a live band. 95% of his patrons are WHITE and ALL of his workers are Mexican. He said he doesn't like dealing with black folks on the employment end because they are lazy. Understand THIS mentality though, you don't like hiring black folks but they can pay to eat at your place??? I haven't been back since.

I gotta cousin that used to own 4 restaurants and now he is down to 2 and he caters a lot. His managers are black and his staff is 100% Mexican. His managers have been with him for over 15 years and that's the only reason they are managers today. He pays them well too.

My cousin said that his staff is 100 % Mexican because young black people have become extremely lazy over the years but it hasn't always been that way.

that is the RATE of increase, its not the actual number of business,

Black-owned businesses grow in number, not size | Chicago Breaking Business

– Approximately 7.1 percent of all U.S. businesses were black-owned in 2007, compared to 5.2 percent in 2002.

if somebody said its the only way they are wrong, but small business that make little money is the key to black prosperity and its the basis of american prosperity overall
