And,<br> of course,<br> I love false hubris,<br> but,<br> I have to admit,<br> boycotting the NFL was one of the best things I've ever done. Does it matter I stopped watching 4 years ago? No...still feel I have the moral high ground. And I have yet to hear an answer from any NFL player when I asked,<br> \"Why don't you invest in the neighborhoods you claim to be protesting for?\" Do the kneelers in fact actually understand the problem? The problem is infrastructure or lack thereof in these depressed neighborhoods.\nhttps:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4600\/25049412398_cf0007eb0d_b.jpg\n \n\nI am in independent,<br> but I find it ironic these places have been officiated by Democrats for decades. And,<br> building businesses and infrastructure to give the people there a sense they can accomplish anything. \n\nhttps:\/\/cdn.makeuseof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/futuristic-city2.jpg\n\nSo far lowering taxes both for corporate and individuals is exactly what these places need along with the rest of America to bring about the land of opportunity again. Instead of protesting the White House by not going to visit with Donald Trump,<br> how about picking his brain and asking what he would do to make these neighborhoods outstanding. \n\nJust remember the police violence is a side effect of a crime ridden neighborhood. It is not the cause. The cause is poor economic potential and crumbling infrastructure. \nhttp:\/\/www.sicomindia.com\/images\/Blog\/EconomicGrowth.jpg\n\nPeople feel great when they do good work. They feel even better when they launch their own businesses. \n\nImagine a landscape that was once a turmoil ridden Hell Hole,<br> transformed by investment and infrastructure rebuilding ,<br> into a fantastic place to live,<br> grow,<br> and raise a family?",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"nfl\",<br>\"superbowl\",<br>\"sports\",<br>\"news\",<br>\"politics\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmTbrWsvn6GGBDxKeDxVMfWQ2otJfvt5Dww3Xqa7BSvFMq\/USMC0006.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmQncCzUHdvhQYyo46CFhrCdfYaXcFcRSxKN5PhoNtPtwB\/USMC0002.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4600\/25049412398_cf0007eb0d_b.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.makeuseof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/futuristic-city2.jpg\",<br>\"http:\/\/www.sicomindia.com\/images\/Blog\/EconomicGrowth.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
