Up through the 1950's ... black families were just as stable ... and even slightly more so ... than whites.

But many black families bought into the fool's gold of the great society and the welfare state ... government welfare, government housing, government education, government healthcare, government meals ... and proceeded to go right down the drain as all socialists throughout the world have done.

The ones who didn't buy into the welfare state ... who were hard-working and self-reliant ... have done just as well as everyone else. Since the welfare law was reformed about ten years ago ... many others have gotten off the plantation and become self-reliant.

If you want to read up on this subject ... the world's foremost expert ... who has done massive research using actual census statistics ... is ...

... Thomas Sowell !!!
