    I realize the program is politically not feasible. However, with regards to your questions: -We already pay, both in $$ and in reduced quality of life (crime, blight, harassment,debased culture). A realistic plan would save not only large amounts of money but also save our society from the...

    The birth of a billionaire -- 25 years of MSFT

    When I was a younger teenager I used to subscribe to all the car magazines. I remember in one of the "special exotics" issues, they had a full test of the Porsche 959. As part of the story, they mentioned the car was owned by the young software entrepreneur Bill Gates, who had one of the...

    Trading Is The Slowest Route To Victory

    -most people working at corporations do not make as much as you think. -regardless, if 60-90K is your income goal you have no reason to trade or start a business (unless its a "passion" creative business). -Working for a large corporation usually sucks monkey balls. I see it this way...

    Texas - what the hell - huge budget crisis

    Every statistic that has Texas doing poorly needs to be analysed for the impact of the large, poorly performing Hispanic population. For example, Texas education is near the bottom because the large Hispanic population does very poorly (as they do in other states). The whites in Texas are...

    "Ricter, calm down. Eugenics will fail if anyone attempts it. Too many variables." I disagree. The best way to ensure the long term health of our society is by maintaining a high quality population. The black population is suffering because the bottom 20% are rapidly outproducing the top...

    $7,000,000 is not enough to be rich!

    That is not a bad idea. Anyone who wants to cash out with around 7 million should consider becoming an expat. There are some very nice places to live in central and south america, for example, at a fraction of the cost here.

    $7,000,000 is not enough to be rich!

    You can do this but you are effectively annuitizing principle. A more realistic idea of the yield you can get in public markets while maintaining wealth is the dividend yield on a diversified portfolio of stocks such as the SP500.

    Dude, we are "compelled" to go to statistics? Everything i have said has been statistical in nature. Average population differences are STATISTICS, which is what I have been discussing and what is pertinent to the topic at hand. My views on the topic can be summarized to my contributions...

    City Forced To Lower Police Testing Standards Because Not Enough Blacks Passed

    Every single statement you make above is flat out wrong. Not simply are your statements on IQ, Intelligence, group differences, individual differences, etc wrong, but your statement "...then no black man..." demonstrates you fail to understand even simple statistical concepts. I can't...

    If you take out factors such as malnutrition and extreme neglect, Intelligence is malleable only to a very limited degree. Why do you think it is that most every man who has cracked the 10 second barrier in the 100 meter dash is a west African black? Look it up. I think only one white...

    Affirmative action = displace white people (particularly white males). Most do not realize how severe the issue is. They mistakenly believe it is just "tilting the scales" when two candidates are equally qualified. Folks, blacks get into elite colleges (even decent colleges) with 200...

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    I agree with most of what you said, however I would put a slightly different spin on this. These positions are filled with non-Americans because doing so increases the pool of labor and reduces its cost. In the same way meat processing plants import mexican workers, cause they "do work no...

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    Racism = overused shaming word which do to overuse in dishonest applications is losing its value. Racism? Much of this thread has been in admiration the Japanese people's civilized response to this horrific crisis. If you gave this equation to a Japanese person, I suspect he would...

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    Do you think the average Indian or the Indian moron makes it to the USA? No, they do not. The Indians who make it to the USA are among the most intelligent that exist in a population of what, 1+ billion? To understand India you must go to India, not look at the average Indian-American.

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    If you told the typical Japanese person this, he would laugh in your face. I think most Chinese people would too. I strongly suspect most Hispanics and blacks would as well. So far as I can tell, only white people are capable of being this naive. It is simple: People form coalitions...

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    Locutus, I appreciate your assertions. However they all represent liberal Cant rather than reality; "Federal test data show that white male students nationwide who come from families poor enough to qualify for free or reduced-price lunches outperform black males from large cities whose...

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    Why mention or bring to light uncomfortable truths? Simple. Truth matters. Wishing that things were some other way, or that we are all, "the same" or, "the same except different exterior colors" does not make it so. As I stated on 5/14/10: "Why does it matter? Well, as James D. Watson...

    Japanese vs Americans during a disaster.

    You raise a good point. Even the academics who put together this data believe it certainly under-estimates african intelligence. However, Africans are at the bottom of IQ regardless of where they are. Twin studies, adoption studies, etc have all been done. I have written about this more...
