Jobs, specifically for males.(broad I know) Education. Seperate makes and females after the 5th grade
they aren't going to show up for work or school.

Not necessarily. I certainly think poor people have less impulse control however.

I'm afraid the inner cities are a lost cause.

What's sad is your post might be the most accurate in this thread

Come up with a plan to loan and then tansfer the deed in property to those people so they actually own it. People always care more for shite they own than shite they don't.
I have one problem with this, when they need a new roof, who pays for that. When property taxes are due on this property, who pays for this?

Lend your time to a young man or woman in these situations.
There are plenty of organizations to lend a hand to. Spend time with a young person and help mentor them into productive law abiding citizens with aspirations.
Man SS, trust me I try to lend as much time, effort and thought
I wish others would give it a try as well but I understand the time and heartache issues involved

I think I saw in another thread that a paddle works well.

How do you provide hope in a hopeless world?

Changing a culture is impossible. The government can do so much. It must come from within. Start with the basics in the home. Integrity, respect and love.

Strict liability for supporting crime. Strict liability in the tort sense. You aid and abet, support or otherwise obstruct, you're liable for downstream effects. Some would get caught up in that dragnet but decide to fix or accept it.

Education and have a family setting

Fathers. Lots and lots of fathers.

I tried to do Big Brothers in Jacksonville, but they didn't want white dudes helping. Said they were looking for "Big Brothers with similar backgrounds as the kids". So much for that idea.

On a serious note, invest more in education and jobs. Stop throwing people in jail for non-violent crimes

Problem being, inner city kids don't value education.

It'll take time but the trend can be reversed, hopefully

If you had unlimited resources it'd be easy. Admittedly I only read the first few posts but they got the right idea. Build new schools, invest in small businesses, reward those that succeed.
But that isn't realistic. In the real world its a Catch 22. You can't improve things without investment, but you can't get investment without improvements to show those investments would be worthwhile.

You can't help people that refuse to accept help.

That is more of an indictment on the failing inner city schools than the kids.
Bad parenting/broken households deserves blame as well, but not the kids.

It's not a teacher's job to raise the kids, too. It has been said a lot in this thread, but it starts at home. Dads need to start taking pride in raising good kids. Unfortunately they take way more pride in "baby mama drama" or whatever other shite they call it.
