Surprised by so many downvotes for this, its a fairly accurate observation. I dont see how this promotes or demotes anything.
It's mostly because this has been a go-to response by Americans in topics about some European countries doing significantly better than the US: "It's because they don't have black people".
*some Americans.
Yes, I didn't mean to imply it's everyone. But it usually comes from an American.
Kinda a funny comment to make an over generalization on lol
Tbf that's more them telling on themselves in context.
Roosevelt's coalition failed to deliver the full extent of what we'd see in Nordic states and other such robust welfare systems because the dixiecrats rebelled against those things also applying to black people and not being easy enough to use discriminatingly.
