Irrespective of political parties and pandering for votes, there is a real issue regarding how we treat each other as human beings. In the essays presented above in this discussion regarding Dolezals and her deceptions, I don't see much in regards pandering for votes.

no problem with what was written.....

That is to say, there are no “sub-species” among homo sapiens.

just thought maybe the people we elect should not treat the electorate as such.

SC still flies a terrorist flag. The same racists that claim it's "heritage" are the ones who loudly complain about a girl's name on foreign Coke bottles

Go figure, people with lower socioeconomic status live in places with the lowest cost of living. Gee, I wonder why most poor people have moved out of NYC too? These are really tough questions.

P.S. 7 of the 10 cheapest states in the USA are in the South:

Obviously your just miss representing the republifacts™

There's still heeeeaps of them poor folk left in NYC.

http://www.coalitionforthehomeless.org/basic-facts-about-homelessness-new-york-city/

In recent years, homelessness in New York City has reached the highest levels since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

African-American and Latino New Yorkers are disproportionately affected by homelessness. Approximately 57 percent of New York City homeless shelter residents are African-American, 31 percent are Latino, 8 percent are white, 1 percent are Asian-American, and 4 percent are of unknown race/ethnicity.

Hope this helps clear up your disloyal confusion over the matter. ;)

Of course at the bottom you can "fall off the map" and with NYC's real estate trends it's setting records in that regards. Homeless aren't tracked well and aren't considered legal residents but that issue highlights a major problem associated with the rising cost of living as wages remain flat for decades - especially in major cities (US or otherwise).

It's a further point on missing standardized inequality indicators other than cost of living alone. As are police shootings various journalists have noted recently:

Re-districting and voter ID also plague the South too:
