Sort of like how "just be equal" happens all by itself
So you agree that it isn't possible to be 'equal' without massive government intervention ?
Wow, that is so paternalistically racist.

It could, but too many enjoy playing the "I'm a victim" card. They want the world to feel sorry for them.

Hmm, you have nothing as usual.
You say you need the aggressive power of government to effect change.
By definition, you think the FNs are incapable of being 'equal' without help.
That is racist.

Funny how some folks will say that minorities have to have massive assistance from the government but then they'll denounce the inherent racism of what used to be called, "The White Man's Burden". 
Myself, in my lifetime I've seen government social programs cause far more harm than good. Conversely, when the Native Americans in the USA finally freed themselves from government domination that's when they were free to achieve prosperity.
Seems to me that sometimes the best and hardest choice is to leave people alone and let them first take a shot at finding their own way.
Maybe we need to intervene at a later point, but that should not be our first option.
