@Ridgid only someone who went to college could make such a utterly uninformed and false (dare I say "stupid") comment. Today the standard of living around the world is orders of magnitude higher than it was in the past yet we have a much higher population. People have been predicting that we will run out of resources or we will get overpopulated for hundreds of years yet today we have access to more resources than ever before. You have zero evidence to back your clueless claim.

Every person of every race, not just African Americans, should look up to this man.

@dantean So your two heroes are people of totally different political (and even personal beliefs)? So on what basis then do you admire them? The fact that both are black?

Are you a racist?

@gmakepiece Did you spend all our tax payer money on your BS education. So you can call some a word that you probably don't know the meaning of. Five Stars. What you think people are hotels or Restaurant. You live in a dream world.

@comptonproduction Excellent left liberal racist logical fallacy. Five stars.

@truevoice08 Thanks. I enjoy being condescended to. Perhaps you'd like to pat my head and send me to the kitchen for a sweet now? Sowell and the President are BOTH heroes of mine for having prevailed in--and in spite of--a world with too many assholes like yourself.

Unemployment isn't always a clear indicator of an economy's health and well being. In the former U.S.S.R. there was never any unemployment, yet I would hardly consider their economy as productive, robust, or anything other than sick and dying. The war did not end the Great Depression. It ended in 1946, almost a full year after the war ended. The reason it ended? Government spending was cut by 60% and taxes reduced by 30%. GDP grew at a 30% rate in 1947.

ravengaurd6 is a communist. Sowell is a scholar. I'll choose him over you, any day.

@truevoice08 Or rather this is the man which all americans should look up to and not Obama?

[johammbass]
