Sounds harsh but it's a good thing in the long run. Too many AA jobs are pure grifting and not even a pretense of productivity while a lot of otherwise productive blacks are replaced by illegals.

Blacks actually have a lot of talent. Maybe not so much in the analytical fields but there's a lot to go around in a healthy economy.

I don't think God gave some commandment that you have to be good at quantitave tests to be a full human being. Maybe we should quit looking at people that way.

This might not be totally relevant to Steve Sailer's post but I thought I'd post it. An Internet blog called the Baltimore Banner explained how Donald Trump's downsizing of the federal government is hurting Prince George's County and Charles County, Maryland. Our federal bureaucracy is made up of hundreds of thousands of specialized bureaucrats who do things like meeting plannings and personnel arrangements. Many of these bureaucrats are blacks and they live in suburban Washington DC in its Maryland suburbs. These black bureaucrats could not make so much money in the private sector but they live well as government bureaucrats. I heartily agree that the federal bureaucracy needs to be hammered back but many people with weak skills are going to be crushed.
