I wouldn’t want to have to calculate what percentage of this article’s content is true and correct, because I don’t have that much time to devote to doing so. But I found it rather worthwhile to read and thought you might also. It’s at a financial website, but it isn’t primarily about finances; though, one should probably say, finance is perhaps a good subject to be in, when writing about the enemy.

I. Introduction

In 2005, a group called the “Beyond Diversity Resource Center” (www.beyonddiversity.org) released a study which ranked all 50 states in terms of their “diversity”. Using data from the U.S. Census Bureau for the year 2000, the study assigned a numerical score to each state. This number was intended to quantify the probability of “encountering a person of a different race”. The study was intended as a guide to the individual in understanding the opportunities and degree of effort required to incorporate the “richness” and “value” of diversity into one’s life. The “Beyond Diversity Resource Center”(hereafter BDRC) is founded on the ridiculous assumption that “diversity” is somehow beneficial to all races, Whites included. This bias is demonstrated in the rankings assigned to the 50 states with #1 being most diverse and #50 being least diverse. Like most pseudo-intellectual efforts of this kind, the study never attempts to quantify, demonstrate or clearly explain WHY diversity is so beneficial. It is simply taken for granted that diversity is “good”. Despite these underlying flaws, the data are not without merit. In fact, they serve as a useful guide by demonstrating the difficulty of avoiding diversity based on one’s location, and in identifying low-diversity areas which might be appealing destinations for travel or relocation. Furthermore, the study provides a valuable empirical basis for demonstrating just how detrimental diversity really is.

Alex,

I recently purchased a $3 VHS copy of the “cult classic” They Live. When I looked at the box I found the following teaser (and howler) on the cover:

Alex,

Check out this blog, this guy is good – really good. Mr. Valenzuela is an outstanding wordsmith. His latest piece “Into Pyramid’s Shadow: At War with Ourselves” is one of the best summations I have ever read concerning voting and democracy. His piece expertly explains why I cannot agree with any form of centralized leadership or authority. Never could I have written about my feelings on this matter in such a concise and illuminating manner. Strange though it may sound, for me it took an Italian to properly portray the American West. I could never stand to watch a western until I first viewed Sergio Leon’s epics back in the mid-eighties. Now I find a Latin (I assume this from his name alone) who best elucidates American politics and it’s impact upon our global situation.

Regards,

Arch Stanton
