Jason Riley believes that African Americans ought to pursue their lives like everybody else does. In other words, he does not see brown-skinned people as handicapped or as government-dependents.

"Married black Americans in the US have the same average incomes as married white Americans."

Guy is telling the truth.

It is so very refreshing to hear the truth explained so well.

...but its against the narrative, and counter to the doctrine\dogma of our leftists - they are opressed, down-trodden, exploited, and needing 'special treatmens' for fairness.

Odd, but, what they lament is just what they do to this 13% of the population. The biggest oppressors are the biggest mouthpieces.

I read where the reparations proceedings are stalled, since the lawyers involved cannot get the same deal they got with the Big Tobacco shakedown.I guess you can only return to the well only so many times before the bucket returns dry...

The problem is not blacks per se but the black underclass, and it is a very big problem. Moreover, they are not alone. There is a white underclass, a Hispanic underclass and an Indian underclass. All told they amount to almost 40 million people. Because they have low IQ's and impulsive and often violent, they are largely uneducable and untrainable and unemployable, and because of that they have no function in our modern economy. Basically, they subsist on charity.

The problem is, How to deal with them in a civilized way? Got me. Everything wrong in their lives is their own fault. The welfare state is failing them. Jail is a bandage. We don't do death camps (and shouldn't, in case you're not reading well.)

There is a far larger white underclass, and a Hispanic one also.

Not sure how much it has to do with race.

I heard an interview with Jason Riley the other day. He's certainly read his Thomas Sowell. I'm glad he's writing as he is, but none of his ideas are new.

This all began with Lyndon Johnson and was intended to make blacks dependent on government free stuff so they would always vote Democrat. It has succeeded mightily and the blacks have paid the price. Most/many of them are indeed dependent on government free stuff. This was a terribly cynical move by the Democrats and so sad that they have succeeded in destrying the black family.
