Walter E Williams: Fiddling Away The Future

Let's list major problems affecting black Americans.   Topping the list is the breakdown in the black family, where only a third of black children are raised in two-parent households.  Actually, the term "breakdown" is incorrect.  Families do not form in the first place.  Nationally, there is a black illegitimacy rate of 72 percent.    ...

Liberal Dream: 11-yo Girls Can Now Get Birth Control Devices Implanted In Them Without Parents Knowing

by Matt Agorist.  Between 1991 and 2013, the teen birth rate declined by 57% nationwide. Over this period, teen pregnancy has declined in all 50 states and among all racial/ethnic groups.

"Greatest generation" failed to transmit moral values.    A civilized society's first line of defense is not the law, police and courts but customs, traditions, rules of etiquette and moral values.

Walter E Williams: Black Self-Sabotage

Volunteering for the chains of the left.     If we put ourselves into the shoes of racists who seek to sabotage black upward mobility, we couldn't develop a more effective agenda than that followed by civil rights organizations, black politicians, academics, liberals and the news media. Let's look at it. First, weaken the black family, but don't blame it  ... MORE

Walter E Williams: Cultural Deviancy, Not Guns

A problem of standards.    There's a story told about a Paris chief of police who was called to a department store to stop a burglary in progress.

When questioned about his actions, he replied that he didn't have enough men to cover  ... MORE

Bad decisions can be hazardous to your economic health. Here's a recent statement frequently suggested by leftist academics, think tank researchers and policymakers: "People were not just struggling because of their personal deficiencies.
