I don&#x27;t need awareness. I&#x27;m keenly aware of what&#x27;s happening here in America and abroad. I got where I am because I worked hard. I&#x27;ve received no handouts. I paid for my education through my military service. I earned my 3.98 GPA in CompSci because I put forth the effort. I currently work with some blacks who have done the same thing, and they were poorer than me growing up. It&#x27;s about attitude and what you want. Real men don&#x27;t want handouts. They don&#x27;t want a check given to them for doing nothing.<p>Hell, now there are people talking about a basic income for doing nothing. I agree with scripture, work or don&#x27;t eat. Granted, society has people who cannot work through no fault of their own. Take care of our less fortunate brothers and sisters, by all means. If you are an able-bodied adult, get off your ass and work for a living. Start of down low like everyone else and make something of yourself. This is where the military shines. A poor guy can rise to the top in the military. Get his college paid for. Make something of himself. Nothing stops these people. There is no such thing as will power. It&#x27;s want power. How bad do you want to be better, different, not poor, educated. How bad do you want to work to ensure your children live a better life than you? My parents were not perfect, but damn if they didn&#x27;t raise me right. I work for what&#x27;s mine and want no handouts from others.
