Well, I think most people (excluding liberals) understand that the Welfare State is responsible for the breakdown of the family, especially the African American family in America. Often black people are not as well educated or skilled as others and so cannot get "good" jobs that pay well. It is often easier to live well in single parent households that can get many benefits (wrongly called entitlements) from the government. A single woman with children can get low cost housing, free medical, food stamps, and many other benefits. It is to her advantage to stay single and continue to have children in order to continue to receive benefits.
The man is left out (which the feminists want) of the family equation. Many go from woman to woman, living off of them and fathering many children.
The children who grow up in the households suffer the most, they usually do not have the direction of a father which is very important. So often as they get a little older, they get involved with gangs and crime and the like. They often do not get a good education themselves, so it is a vicious cycle that keeps repeating itself.
This is nothing more than a modern form of slavery. In the past, slaves were forbidden an education, in order to force them to be dependent on their masters. The modern system accomplishes the exact same goal.
I personally believe that some in high places are doing this deliberately. While they say they want to secure rights, freedoms, and opportunity for minorities, in reality they want to keep them enslaved and in subjection.
What is clever about these folks is that they play the race card. They preach to these poor minorities that they are being held back and down by the rich white folks, especially Republicans, when it is the liberals themselves who are keeping these folks enslaved in poverty and ignorance. How clever.
