Yesterday the Atlanta "Concerned Black Clergy" SUPPORTED "The Public Option" as a means of addressing the gross need for HEALTH CARE in the poor Black community in Atlanta.
You see the way their logic works :
BLACK PEOPLE ARE IN NEED of Health Care.
Anyone who blocks Black people "BEING IN RECEIPT OF A BENEFIT" stands AGAINST our interests as a people.
OF COURSE they place no weigh upon the MEANS OF RECEIPT of these benefits.
Someone handing out fish - fried with some hot sauce on the side is equal to someone handing out fishing rods and a DVD on fishing along with some live bait. They care not about the dependencies that are built up and which form the CULTURE that the people will be stuck with for 60 years hence.
My new label for these people are "Serial Fish Distributors". Their actions on a daily basis allow certain people to end up fed AS IF they did it themselves - EVEN THE ABLE BODY PEOPLE who otherwise could.
We need to challenge these type of people. They see a present need amongst our people and then they "Work on their BEHALF", trying to fill it. Their focus is only on the immediate need, like a person living for the day.
When they do any type of long term planning it is often like we see in this program. They ask the GOVERNMENT to reshape the system so that more resources will run down and wash the masses.
You will NEVER hear them propose a strategy which, in balance depends upon the CONTINUED PRODUCTIVE ACTIONS of the Black community as the primary means of insuring that these needs are met.
The Concerned Black Clergy of Atlanta will remain in my "Adversaries To Black Consciousness" list BECAUSE they have no respect for the Black Culture.
In seeing the need for medical services they fail to realize that:
* THEY are largely responsible for the present political and economic order WITHIN Atlanta that is not able to provide the financing for affordable health care. Thus they turn to NATIONALIZATION to cover for their economic incompetence
* They did not FACTOR IN these services being expressed AMONG THE PEOPLE as an essential part of their platform. Instead, in their perverted manner - they have it as part of their SOCIAL JUSTICE PLATFORM. DEMANDING THAT THE STATE provide Black people with health care - NOT ONE DAMNED TIME asking our COMMUNITY to organize ourselves so that WE PRODUCE MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS with matching funds from our community to do so.
* Under their watch Southwest Atlanta Hospital CLOSED DOWN. They were UNABLE to find a voice to tell the "Richie Rich" Black folks in Cascade Heights to SUPPORT THEIR OWN COMMUNITY'S Hospital where they live rather than the White Man's Hospital in Buckhead!!!!
* They have a DISCONNECTION between the role of the Atlanta Public Schools and the Academic Need for Medical Professionals. SO MUCH of their focus has been placed upon OUTSIDE WHITE REPUBLICANS that they are unwilling to see that it is the INTERNAL "Pirate In Training" that is the #1 THEFT OF INSTRUCTIONAL TIME WITHIN THE CLASS ROOM.
These are the reasons why the C.B.C. is a threat to Black Cultural Consciousness. They only want to FEED.
They have almost no clue in how to develop a FARMING ECOSYSTEM which has the PEOPLE aligned to produce their own best interests.
They instead prefer SOUP LINES where people are forced to hear their sermons as a condition of eating.
