Set up some kind of politically patronizing system so people of color always vote for the candidate that is most active in forced wealth redistribution? The death tax is a big one if you don’t have a powerful accountant and attorney. The government can get your whole farm or business if you are not careful. This is the most popular one. It really works for the politician but not for the people. They wind up supporting systems that reward sexual irresponsibility and killing their unborn results – thus seriously downgrading their moral and ethical framework for sound decision making and a sense of responsibility in all areas of life. The next generation is left with no support from gramps.
