Other than the 1488 crowd wanting to be able to say ‘no blacks allowed’ in certain businesses, I’m genuinely curious what else is in there that should make it get repealed?
I personally would like it not repealed mainly because I would be personally affected by said policy obviously, but I’m curious in the reasons outside of just that, if y’all have reasons other than that, as AFAIK, the CRA violates freedom of assembly in the view of people who have that opinion.
Agreed completely.
You don't even need to go hypothetical. Thriving black communities and businesses existed pre-CRA because they had a partially captive market: other blacks. Integration wiped them out because they couldn't compete with White businesses.
And for the record, you have consistently excellent takes.
Well first of all thank you.
And you are correct about black businesses in the past. It's actually a smaller scale example of what happened with NAFTA. When so called free trade was instituted, Mexican local farmers found themselves unable to compete with the economy of scale of the United States. We caused, IMO deliberately so since NAFTA was drafted and influenced by people who we now know as the WEF, the largest economic downturn in Mexico of the last century. And given that they'd just had a depression almost immediately before that since they outspent their GDP hosting the Olympics... Well you don't need to major in economics to see why they started pouring across the border in numbers.
