    What is neo-liberalism?

    1. THE RULE OF THE MARKET. Liberating "free" enterprise or private enterprise from any bonds imposed by the government (the state) no
    matter how much social damage this causes. Greater openness to
    international trade and investment, as in NAFTA. Reduce wages by
    de-unionizing workers and eliminating workers' rights that had been won
    over many years of struggle. No more price controls. All in all, total
    freedom of movement for capital, goods and services. To convince us this
    is good for us, they say "an unregulated market is the best way to
    increase economic growth, which will ultimately benefit everyone." It's
    like Reagan's "supply-side" and "trickle-down" economics -- but somehow
    the wealth didn't trickle down very much.

    2. CUTTING PUBLIC EXPENDITURE FOR SOCIAL SERVICES like education and
    health care. REDUCING THE SAFETY-NET FOR THE POOR, and even maintenance
    of roads, bridges, water supply -- again in the name of reducing
    government's role. Of course, they don't oppose government subsidies and
    tax benefits for business.

    3. DEREGULATION. Reduce government regulation of everything that
    could diminsh profits, including protecting the environmentand safety on
    the job.

    4. PRIVATIZATION. Sell state-owned enterprises, goods and services to private investors. This includes banks, key industries, railroads, toll highways, electricity, schools, hospitals and even fresh water. Although usually done in the name of greater efficiency, which is often needed, privatization has mainly had the effect of concentrating wealth even
    more in a few hands and making the public pay even more for its needs.

    5. ELIMINATING THE CONCEPT OF "THE PUBLIC GOOD" or "COMMUNITY" and replacing it with "individual responsibility." Pressuring the poorest
    people in a society to find solutions to their lack of health care,
    education and social security all by themselves -- then blaming them, if
    they fail, as "lazy."

    The above was inflicted by Western industrial countries on "Developing" countries under the IMF scheme called Structural Adjustment Programs
    (SAP).

    Key Points of SAP

    The U.S. leverages its dominant role in the global economy and in
    the IFIs to impose SAPs on Third World countries, and open their markets
    to competition from U.S. companies. (Like NAFTA did, or the presently
    debated Trans-Pacific Partnership will, which Paul Craig Roberts,
    former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Department in the Reagan administration, says will result in global privilege for the corporate
    class as a class immune to government regulation.)

    SAPs are based on a short-term, profit-maximization model that
    perpetuates poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation.

    Social safety nets and good governance reforms do not compensate for
    the serious flaws that SAPs introduce by deregulating laws and
    diminishing the statešs capacity to protect the welfare of its citizens.

    The point of the above exposition is that it was tried out on other
    countries, weaker countries, before it was used on the First World.

    Now to the point. Black people in America are being kept second class citizens, and robbed of their Constitutional rights in order to reduce democracy, and serve the Federal Prison Industries (Unicor) as cheap
    labor.

    Although the majority of illegal drug users and dealers nationwide are
    white, three-fourths of all people imprisoned for drug offenses have
    been black or Latino.

    [R]ates and patterns of drug crime do not explain the glaring racial disparities in our criminal justice system. People of all races use and
    sell illegal drugs at remarkably similar rates. If there are significant differences in the surveys to be found,they frequently suggest that
    whites, particularly white youth, are more likely to engage in illegal
    drug dealing than people of color.'' One study, for example, published
    in 2000 by the National Institute on Drug Abuse reported that white
    students use cocaine at seven times the rate of black students, use
    crack cocaine at eight times the rate of black students, and use heroin
    at seven times the rate of black students. That same survey revealed that nearly identical percentages of white and black high school seniors use marijuana. The National Household Survey on Drug Abuse reported in 2000
    that white youth aged 12-17 are more than a third more likely to have
    sold illegal drugs than African American youth. Thus the very same
    year Human Rights Watch was reporting that African Americans were being arrested and 'imprisoned at unprecedented rates, government data
    revealed that blacks were no more likely to be guilty of drug crimes
    than whites and that white youth were actually the most likely of any
    racial or ethnic group to be guilty of illegal drug possession and
    sales. Any notion that drug use among blacks is more severe or dangerous
    is belied by the data; white youth have about three times the number of drug-related emergency room visits as their African American
    counterparts.

    The racial bias inherent in the drug war is a major reason that 1 in
    every 14 black men was behind bars in 2006, compared with 1 in 106 white
    men. For young black men, the statistics are even worse. One in 9 black
    men between the ages of twenty and thirty-five was behind bars in 2006,
    and far more were under some form of penal control--such as probation or parole. These gross racial disparities simply cannot be explained by
    rates of illegal drug activity among African Americans, but they can be explained by arbitrary enforcement by officers and prosecutors seeking
    Federal financial backing which comes with arrests. Arrests, that if
    they were made in "white" communities would cause a ferocious, political backlash.

    Being convicted of a felony results in being barred from public housing
    by law, discriminated against by private landlords, ineligible for food stamps, forced to "check the box" indicating a felony conviction on
    employment applications for nearly every job, and denied licenses for a
    wide range of professions, people whose only crime is drug addiction or possession of a small amount of drugs for recreational use find
    themselves locked out of the mainstream society and economy‹permanently.
    The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander <http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&f ield-keywords=New+Jim+Crow&x=0&y=0>

    Good you say. Get those drug addicts off the streets, but . . .

    The American citizens, like the frogs in the slowly heating pot, seem
    unaware that the same stop-and-frisk rule, the Terry v. Ohio decision
    stands for, the proposition that, so long as a police officer has
    "reasonable articulable suspicion" that someone is engaged in criminal activity and dangerous, it is constitutionally permissible to stop,
    question, and frisk him or her--even in the absence of probable cause,
    can be applied to ANYONE!

    Neo-liberalism started in the Third World, and now it's in the First
    World.

    Our phones are already tapped. Our emails are read. Our credit card
    purchases, and grocery card purchases can tell what we eat and drink, or
    read. We can be located, and eavesdropped on by our telephones. We can
    be watched through our computer camcorders. Our "smart" electric meters
    track our domestic habits. Soon we will have drones watching us from
    over head. "Stop and Search" started with mostly people of color, but it
    could be coming to a street near you soon. How long before the
    government starts picking up dissidents?

    Our government is supposed to establish Justice, insure domestic
    Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general
    Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our
    Posterity. I don't see anything in there that says we have to bailout fraudulent bankers, start vanity wars, or poison the populous with
    pollution from air, water, and food.

    Gators love to eat niggers and they are pretty good at it. Detroit is
    just the place they could thrive.
