Morals Are A Trailing Indicator

Post by MSimon »

From a comment I posted at: http://www.samizdata.net/2014/08/samizd ... ent-603644

OK. Yes. Blacks have got to do something about their culture. But don’t Italians need to do something about theirs? Who can forget Al Capone? Doesn’t he alone prove the Italian propensity for violent thuggishness?

Or does it say more about the effects of Prohibition in America?

Trees meet forest.

Is it possible that Rand Paul has the best understanding of the situation out of all the leaders of the American political class?

When the M/F ratio is out of whack the ladies look to alphas for protection. And how do you prove alpha? A propensity for violence is a marker. And how did the government whack the M/F ratio? By targeting black males in Prohibition enforcement.

All these things feed each other in a downward spiral. You want to change the culture? Change the M/F ratio. Morals will follow. – Morals follow demographics. They are a trailing indicator not a cause.
