To establish legitimacy between the local populace and the local government. Systemic problem areas in the US, is there a disconnect between the local population of those areas and the local government. I live in a small city, it was on 60 minutes for it's heroin epidemic. Living in a town it was run by it's residents. The problem areas say they don't want to talk to government. Need Intervention?

I've thought about this for awhile as an idea and listening to local minority leaders and BLM activist in Boston talk on the news I took away from what was said as this.
They claim institutionalized racism exists and that white people have these great lives with money and they get nothing. They said the schools are so bad and that is white peoples fault so they drop out and resort to crime to make a living, encountering police. They say they do NOT want to cooperate with the police and give them information about the crime.
I ask how is that sustainable. We have areas in the CONUS that don't seem to have any legitimacy, similar to a village that harbors terrorists as a mental picture. The only way for a win-win is to have conversations with "villages" and link them to their respective "government" and as a reward they get aid and assistance. I would ask if it's doing a disservice to give government aid to areas that don't want to comply with government.
The most simple argument against the democrat party is that it wants all of these "programs" yet doesn't want to employ 1 of you liberal arts degree holding democrats, to oversee the programs such as social services, rather just cut checks without strings attached. They then turn around and blame conservatives when they get called for no oversight of the programs. It's a problem that does include everyone. I won't listen to the programmed liberal robots though that only speak 1960 hippy liberal and not their own ideas.

Interesting thoughts and I agree that most people shouldn't get something for nothing. Everyone can probably do something with the right support. Drug testing, training, ID cards, transportation, communication, and consistent case workers to help all make a difference in a young persons life. Mental illness and addiction go hand-in-hand. How do we effectively assist someone who has nothing being raised in gang invested neighborhoods. These are issues spread across generations. Diversity, American nationalism, gender difference, the foundation of a society begin with child rearing in the home. No government can really mandate how that is done. One must have healthy soil to raise quality produce. Governments at every level are the products of those citizens. Raise em right, open minds are much more amenable to change. Resisting diversity is missing the point IMHO.

Col Rebecca Lorraine - The liberal democrats that overwhelming teach in schools and are behind the social welfare programs are not necessarily known for their private sector business however, look at the lack of government jobs available to facilitate their agendas. I think tax payers would support those "jobs" if made available and so wouldn't those hurting for work in the communities. Face it though democrats don't like anyone setting up "barriers" to their voting bait.

The United States NEEDS to transfer back to the states many powers usurped by the Feds. We also need to STOP celebrating diversity and start to celebrate how we are ALIKE. What makes us all AMERICANS...NOT White- americans or black-americans...JUST PLAIN AMERICANS and NOTHING comes before that.
