Racism

What is Racism? Racism is the control of one or more ethnic groups over one or more ethnic groups in economics, salary, income status, geographic location, gender but not to include a person's sexual preference. This mindset of an oppressor is very common since early man. Today, these practices are used in politics to control an ethnic group or groups. When you look at the heavy obvious divide between the Democrats and the Republicans, much of this is evident. For instance, each party wants control of the country. Much of what they talk is often politics. As a child, I was raised to know it's not what a person says that's dangerous but rather what they do (religion playing the larger terrible part) is dangerous. Faith is what a person believes will come in time...through prayer. God did not create religion but rather man did in order to control the masses. Good people will do good things from their spirit, Bad people will find ways to be bad from their spirit. Remember, it's not what a man speaketh but rather what a man doeth. The divide, The Republicans rely on the most greedy million/billionaires support to create and back (high unemployment, low wage jobs, high healthcare premiums cost, etc.) their policies. This is the policies Republicans want to put on the people. Question is how many people in the state of Georgia really believe the Republican party want to help low income people or help the million/billionairs. Democrats rely mostly on the homosexual community votes in exchange for support of same sex marriages.  The homosexual community see an opportunity to get ultimate support from the Democrats and some community support who will back the Democrats. What a mess. Oh God! "Where are thou?"
