Congratulations to the Nigerians (yorubas) elected.


On a side note: what are the igbos doing there? The yorubas are slowly but surely surpassing us in many fields, soon they will over pass us.

We (igbos) need to reset ourselves. We are a great people but we have let ego(pride), ignorance, and arrogance go away from our ways. The igbos, the well to do ones, in America and UK, are entangled with ignorance and arrogance.

The last time I was in America, I went to see a friend, so when I ordered an uber to leave, me and my friend were chatting in front of the yard but he decided to go get his phone from inside the house, not 1 minute after he went in, an uber pulled up to drop someone off, it turned out to be his aunty that was just coming from Nigeria, I didn't know that at the time; The uber driver came out, went to the boot(trunk) and offloaded her luggage, am like good afternoon ma, she just raised her voice and said carry all these in the house, na him I look her foolish mouth, I just lock up dey wait for my uber which was 2 mins to arrival. My guy comot outside, hail the woman, then carry the two luggage enter house, I no even look the foolish woman again. My guy cun dey say, you know how nigerians are, they think they can play boss with anyone dem meet wey be Nigerian. A very arrogant igbo woman.

Then, there is the issue of when i went to the restaurant in America, another group of igbo people were having some kind of meeting, the ghanian server has served them well with all their arrogant demand like bringing bowl for them to wash hand, when it was written on many places there that, the sink is open for anyone trying to wash their hands; and those people were very close to the sink, like 3 steps to the sink on that lane. After they finished, no tip, no thank you, no anything. A very wicked set of wicked igbos that day. I had to give the guy some money on their behalf because I was ashamed of their arrogance and stupidity.

Even all these househelp wickedness is mostly us.


We igbos need to gain traction on multi front positivity soon, and rekindle the igbo spirit of humility, knowledge, and grit.

One thing idiots forgot to understand is that "crime knows no tribe" but idiots keeps on displaying their idiocy by playing and being tribal bigotry.

One things that imbecilic and crack-brained forgot to understand is that an average Yiibo person thinks about how to dupe and rob people where he finds himself or herself....for example..around last year, some.gang of Yiibo thieves travelled to Dubai to thief....forgetting that Dubai is not like Nigeria......

If only economics was that easy. Trump can only fool people that are unintelligent.

The unemployment rate had been falling for long before Trump took office, and their declines don't appear to have picked up speed. This implies that there's nothing specific that Trump did to change this rate.

These rates (all races inclusive) have been falling relatively steadily since around 2010, early in President Obama's tenure in the White House. The country was just coming out of a recession plus low interest rate environment - quantitative easing - fall in unemployment rate.

So clearly Trump's presidency was great for blacks as unemployment fell even much further than in the Obama times. You did not need blacks in the white house to make this happen.
Now let's look at another stat. A more important stat called real household income.

In Trump's 4 years, real household income rose by 6.8% despite the pandemic and the lockdowns. It rose from $66,657 to $71,186.

Under Biden, despite the vaccines, the ending of lockdowns, so many blacks in his government, and trillions added to the economy, families have gotten poorer. Real household income has fallen to $70,784.

To put this into perspective, the 16 years of Bush and Obama combined. Real household income rose from $66,248 to $66,657. Families saw much bigger gains under Trump. So my question is, do you need blacks in the Whitehouse or more money in your pocket? For me, I would take money in my pocket.

I would be happy to compare the economy under any of the so-called black-loving presidents to that of Trump.

Still economics. My last post on this thread.

There is quantitative tightening under Biden while there was quantitative easing under Trump.
When you keep reducing interest rate (to enforce cheap credit) as we saw in the case of trump, the economy will continue to heat up and it becomes an employees market. Employers would offer higher wages to keep or hire people in a tight market, and this will eventually bring about Inflation. Inflation would bite much harder into those increased wages. People will feel poorer even with high wages than they were before the increase in wages. A correction is now taking place. Enjoy the ride if you are American.

Let's begin with your graph national debt. It shows a uniform growth from Obama to Trump and then an accelerated growth only during the pandemic.
The great Biden has continued to accelerate the debt despite the many blacks in his government.

Your argument about the interest rate is faulty. Switzerland has negative interest rate yet they suffer from deflation not inflation.

Also interest rate was very low under Obama. The only reason rates are going high is to curb the inflation. Please google the interest rate under Obama.

Finally point, under Trump blacks were richer than under any so called black loving president in history.

I won't be suprised that one or two of those elected under the Democrats must have served as an intern under Obama's whitehouse. An introduction to them that politics in America is not for white people alone. The diversity of Obama's Intern (whites, Blacks, Asians, Indians, Latinos e.t.c) is a true representation of present day America.

Even the Biden government was not foolish enough to blame the present economic downtown on the low interest rate. Of course if they did it will show that they are truly very foolish. That said, you made another falls assertion that the economy under Trump was an employee market. In truth, it was an every body's market. Businesses were making some of their best earnings. In fact the democrats complained that businesses were not paying enough as wages.
Lastly in 4 years, Trump added 6.7 trillion to the national debt while in one year and 10 months Biden has added 4.8 trillion.
Remember under Trump there was a pandemic while under Biden there was a vaccine.

The only problem of the traditional black American communities in America is that the want government to give them everything. They are the laziest people I have ever met. They should learn from other blacks. Nigerian and Ghanian immigrants are on average wealthier and more educated than whites. They took advantage of the best system in the world.
Trump's policies brought wealth to all races in America
