He is saying that the welfare state has failed.

Apparently you are missing my main point. One of the facts that he used to support his position doesn't actually support his position. That's a big problem when he is being declared as an intelligent "black man that gets it".

When you see facts like the one I pointed out being used to prove his main point, it actually does greater damage to his main point because at this point any reasonable person is looking at the rest of his facts and thinking that since this fact didn't support his main point when he claimed it did, then maybe the rest don't support his main point either. Ultimately my point is that this leads me to believe his facts are just more conservative propganda that mostly do not support what he claims they support.

You can have all the facts in the words, but if you mistakenly or purposefully try to claim they support an idea that they don't actually support then there's a problem.
