~ Walter Williams
professor of economics at George Mason University

Lynn, if you believe this then you must be old and bigoted.

I am OLD, Hon. This was said by a black person who happens to be a libertarian. Tell it to him. I'm assuming that you are a liberal? But then, Mr. Williams is just some OLD but educated guy who just might have some smarts.

I can't buy on PB either and I am a white heterosexual. Race has nothing to do whether or not you can buy somewhere. It takes money.

“When you rob someone of their incentive to go out there and improve themselves, you are not doing them any favors. When you take someone and pat someone on their head and say there there, you poor little thing… I am going to give you food stamps… let me give you housing subsidy… let me give you free health care… and because you cannot do that and those people over there that are causing half of your problems.”
