Dr. Sowell really has hit on the key satanic ploy to beguile man into believing that the solution to evil is to remove all that causes evil; hence, competition, inequality in both physical, mental, spiritual and other metaphysical areas.

The problem about all this is that it is being orchestrated by those in the elite and are demon possessed minions of satan and isn't an idyllic result of the thinking of the proletariat.

The Truth is there is no equality...why is it some moral high ground to want everyone to be the same but to just bring down those above you?

Thomas Sowell's arguments tend to be hit or miss. This one's a miss.

The reason Helen Keller's story is so highly celebrated is not simply because she was successful in spite of her disability, but rather because the specific nature of her disability (being both blind and deaf) made it appear as though mere communication, let alone success, was impossible. This makes her story far more inspirational than that of someone who's disability is less severe. A person who is blind OR deaf succeeding is interesting, but not amazing. But a person who is both blind AND deaf succeeding? Now that's amazing.

A man who was simply born without arms will certainly be at a larger disadvantage than a non-disabled person, but success does not appear to be impossible for him, just more difficult than normal. I once saw a news story about a girl who had the same condition. It was interesting, but the fact that she still had perfectly good legs made her success seem less surprising. As such, these people's stories aren't nearly on the same level as that of Helen Keller. Now if a person was born without arms OR legs and is still successful, like Nick Vujicic, then we can start making comparisons to Helen Keller. But to say that every successful disabled person should be elevated to that level, regardless of the severity of their disability, is rather ridiculous.

And where does Thomas Sowell get the idea that liberals would want to put disabled people into government institutions? I've never heard any liberal advocate that. It sounds like more of a straw man argument than anything.

As for the report about income distribution in Toronto, I'd like to read the report myself. Who published the report, and how did they get their information?

Also, simply looking at the average income alone does not give a complete picture of the wealth distribution patterns. Even if Japanese-Canadians have a higher AVERAGE income, it's still entirely possible for the people with the highest incomes to be white if the wealth of Japanese-Canadians tapers off towards the higher end of the income spectrum.
