"I have yet to find a single country in the world where the policies being advocate for blacks in the United States have lifted any people out of poverty. I’ve seen many examples around the world of people who begin in poverty and ended in affluence. Not one of them has followed any pattern at all; like what is being advocated for blacks in the United States. Many groups have remained in poverty for a very long time trying to follow those patterns."
– Thomas Sowell
