Jews, to escape the consequences of policies they choose to impose on everyone else. It's what they did in the Southern city I lived in for a few years. Since the average IQs of upper class whites differ from blacks by about 2 SDs, it's pretty much guaranteed your kids wwon't have to go to school with lots of black kids. Lower middle and even middle class whites don't have the same guarantee. <br /><br />I lived in a heavily Jewish neighborhood for a few years, and my secular Jewish neighbor - quite literally a card-carrying ACLU member (he kept their magazines on his coffee table) - sent his son to the magnet school, conveniently located near all the synagogues in town. His son got kicked out of the program because of his grades. He somehow managed to get his son into the neighboring, much whiter school district rather than send him to school with a bunch of blacks.Matthewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-82137578015235695092012-12-23T09:55:10.268-08:002012-12-23T09:55:10.268-08:00"I think a functional nation requires at leas..."I think a functional nation requires at least one city where the elite feel comfortable, and that is the role that NYC has resumed"<br /><br />You imply we have a functional nation.<br /><br />Arguably, I'd prefer that the elites not feel too comfortable anywhere.

Now most of the dangerous mentally ill who are confined are confined in prison. I think this will happen along the same lines crime was tamed in NYC. For you see a sacred Liberal Enclave [CT] has been breached, along with the sacred temple of the Successful Single Mother violated. The trick for the rest of the country will be in duplicating whatever the Liberals do to protect themselves and not listening to what they say. See NYC and crime. Generally the more aggressive policies weren't duplicated as successfully, as the rest of the country hasn't gotten the memo about the Constitution et al; do NOT let the rules apply to YOU. bdoranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15201085431663486535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-83200616728552066952012-12-22T08:07:25.341-08:002012-12-22T08:07:25.341-08:00Being associated with Chicago has worked out very ...<i>Being associated with Chicago has worked out very well for some middle class blacks: Michael Jordan, Oprah, and Obama.

I remember in the 70's when people would talk about how great NYC had been in the 50's, and it seemed like it would never come back.<br /><br />On Steve's favorite topic (how a city that votes 80% for Obama has elected Republican mayors for 20! years): we now have a Republican running who might win. His name is Joe Lhota, he was a Deputy mayor under Giuliani, he was recently head of the NY subway system and got it functioning within a couple of days after Sandy (a truly remarkable accomplishment). He is getting great write-ups in all the major media here. <br /><br />All the whites, both elites and working class, will vote for Lhota. The Democratic candidates include a neon-haired Lesbian and some minorities. It will be close, but Lhota is already given an excellent chance. <br /><br />As Steve often points out, it's fine to vote for a liberal for president, senator, etc, but when it comes to your own city (if you're not on welfare) you want somebody who will make it more livable -- a Republican. This is going to be interesting.
