"Because they are Rs.....they don't want to deal with people's problems."

Simple minded answer from a simple minded person.

they red lined whole neighborhoods because they didn't like dealing with poor people of color.

They "red lined" neighborhoods because the people in those neighborhoods couldn't or wouldn't repay their loans. And in fact, when they were forced to STOP redlining those neighborhoods (by liberals) we got an economic crisis that you want to blame on the Rs.

You're industry my ass. You can't uncloud your liberal hate speech long enough to "have" an industry.

That redlining over allegedly not liking people of color is crap. Redlining was invented by FDR's administration who steered federal home and farm loans exclusively to their base - white people.

People in business to make money pay a price in the market for racism.

The issue for loans to poor folks is the likelihood of payback, not the race.
