What a sad, disastrous story. This is the world LBJ created. - posted by bkopto

As to slavery, no argument - but as to the relation between the “sad, disastrous story” and LBJ, there is also no question:
Losing Ground:
American Social Policy, 1950-1980
- Charles Murray
By electing LBJ America snatched defeat from the jaws of victory over poverty and racism.

At this point we wish that white American family formation/stability was no worse than that which was being sustained by black society in 1968. The “sad, disastrous story” of the current black family is the legacy, not of slavery, but of LBJ. As Thomas Sowell will tell anyone who will listen.
