No Hart-Cellar Act, no inner city welfare plantations from the not-so-Great Society, this would be a completely different country.

The 60s was when the rot really set in. All of the infrastructure was put in place. Johnson was bar-none, the most destructive president in US history.

God Emperor Reagan brought us an era of economic prosperity and traditionalism, but he was unable to really change the trajectory on account of Democrat control of Congress. He did what he could though.

Then the globalist Bushes took over the GOP and brought the GOP, and America, nothing but cancer. H.W. Bush increased immigration by 40% and dropped English language requirements. We were enriched with ten million immigrants in the nineties alone thanks to Daddy Bush.

Reagan called amnesty the biggest regret of his presidency, and he was tricked, as the border enforcement measures weren't enforced. It was sold to him and the American people as solving the problem for good. He deeply regretted it.

His presidency was on the whole extremely positive, but his mistake was a giant one. Reagan set off the economic boom that Clinton rode in on. The 80s/90s were the period of the greatest economic prosperity in US history. We had quarters of triple-digit GDP growth under Reagan. He also presided over a period of cultural stability and traditionalism, and unparalleled US prestige around the world.

Reagan makes every one of his successors, save for Trump, look like complete beta cucks.

Reagan passed amnesty because the Democrat Congress they would secure the border in exchange. They never did.

Regardless, what Reagan did would not have been possible without LBJ, who couldn't have done what he did without FDR rewriting the Constitution, which was a continuation of the Progressive Presidents attitude towards the role of the executive, which began with the unconstitutional actions of Lincoln during the Civil War.

Fuck Abraham Lincoln.

Uh, not really. Clinton just created another debt bubble after the economy crashed in the early 90s due to the oil shock. Under Clinton Alan Greenspan filled the economy with shitloads of consumer debt in a gigantic stock bubble that didn't crash until after 2000

Reagan created a debt bubble in the 80s. But there was nothing positive about it.

"As for border security itself, funding for the Border Patrol did not increase until well into the 1990s. Not surprisingly, even the New York Times was reporting within a few years of IRCA that the '1986 Amnesty Law Is Seen As Failing To Slow Alien Tide.' [By Roberto Suro, June 18, 1989] (Ah, for the days when theGray Lady was so forthright with language! But remember, it editorialized against amnesty as late as 2000).

Furthermore, as could have been predicted, IRCA actually spurred the growth of the Treason Lobby at home. The federal government created 'qualified designated entities' to help illegals fill out their applications. As you might imagine, these organizations (and the philanthropic dollars they received) quickly changed their focus from helping illegals obtain legalization to becoming 'defense networks' for criminal aliens.

This was a critical step in the transformation of rhetoric coming from immigration advocates: promises of patriotism and assimilation have been replaced by angry demands and threats directed at the 'racist' United States.

As the behind the scenes lobbying of Schumer, Panetta, and others show, none of this was an accident.IRCA was designed to fail. Immigration patriots need to understand what Conservatism Inc. and the lefty-libertarians refuse to see—mass immigration is not a failure of the state, it is deliberate state policy."
http://www.vdare.com/articles/irca-redux

Reagan was a good guy, and he loved America and wanted to do a good job, and he did, but he got jewed by Schumer & co. on the amnesty bill.

With regard to the debt, Reagan had to work with the Democrat Congress. Either he could get the tax and regulatory cuts to spur the economy, or nothing at all. He chose the former. Under a conservative Republican Congress, it would have been a different story. And note I use the word "conservative," as in Barry Goldwater, Pat Buchanan, and Ronald Reagan, not as in Conservatism Inc./cuckservatism/Bushism.

>Reagan was a good guy,

He didn't cut taxes, he just cut income taxes while raising social security taxes and pay roll taxes. Even basic bitch libertarians like Rothbard understood that.

This resulted in higher taxes on workers and little else. His deregulation of wall street did nothing but allow wall street to commit mass financial fraud.

No, not necessarily. The huge legislative sweeps were passed only in the mid to late 60s, when the nation was embroiled in a sort of cultural revolution. Once this cultural revolution ended there wasn't much legislating as there had been under LBJ.

LBJ being president at that moment was critical. If Goldwater was president he could've weathered the storm.

Agreed, nothing even coming close to the Hart-Cellar Act would have been signed by a Republican president, or at least a non-Bush Republican president.

There's a great case that can be made that Nixon was robbed by the Democrat machine in 1960, there being evidence of voter fraud in Chicago/Cook County and Texas. Nixon believed the election had been stolen from him, but he didn't proceed with anything because he didn't want to tear the country apart.

If Nixon won in 1960, we would have been able to weather the 60s storm was well, but I would have trusted Goldwater over Nixon. Nixon ended up being a centrist mush when he became president, expanding the federal government, taking us off the gold standard; Nixon was only good on foreign policy and on the cultural front, being a sort of effective antithesis to the hippy New Left libshits.

>>129819179
If you would bother reading the article, it clearly makes the case that Reagan and the American people were sold a bill of goods. Even the New York Times was bewildered. Reagan was the real deal. Either it was a legitimate assassination attempt by the system, or it was a warning, with Hinckley in 1981.

And you're wrong on taxes. They were as a net, massively cut, and finally indexed for inflation. And libertarian puritans like (((Rothbard))), who believe in buying and selling children? Not my kind of "conservatism," pal.

Reagan's tax and regulatory cuts made for a far more efficient economy, a fact borne out in the actual numbers, objective data, and is one of the reasons why even the libshit academicians have to hold their nose as they're forced to rank him among the greatest presidents of all time, with an objective regard to the facts, as much as they hate doing so.

That's an opinion of his.

When people are able to cry "Racism" because there is not total equality of outcome, and the legislator intervenes to right a wrong that does not exist, then IMO studying group differences isn't useless information.

"This is partly true. Reagan’s 1981 Economic Recovery Tax Act was an across-the-board 25 percent reduction in tax rates. Everyone got tax relief. Almost all supply-siders supported indexing tax rates for inflation to end “bracket creep” and to prevent the government from profiting from inflation. And deductions for tax-free IRAs are supported by most supply-siders as a way to encourage saving by ending its double taxation.

The Tax Reform Act of 1986 was quintessential Reagan. He knew closing loopholes and lowering rates would create efficiency gains. No one thought it could be done. But the legislation passed, reducing the number of tax brackets to two, 15 percent for the middle class and 28 percent for the wealthy. As a result, the highest income-tax rate fell from 70 percent to 28 percent — one of the biggest rate reductions in American history."

The tax burden on working Americans as well as the rich was lessened considerably under Reagan's tax policies, and we saw the fruit of this in the economy. You keep making this claim that the raise in payroll and SS taxes offset everything, but you haven't made any case for that. I'm giving you numbers, and you're giving me speculation.

I'm not asking you to call Reagan "God Emperor," simply admit he was a true blue conservative, he meant well despite his imperfections, his presidency was on the whole very positive, and he was the closest thing we had to a real leader who bled red, white, and blue up until Trump.

Just saw that. But it does have relevance if one group has a lower average intelligence than the other. Africa will never be able to develop society on par with Europe on average, just look at how all the communists there are doing. Look at how much standard of living has fallen in Zimbabwe and South Africa once whites left.

The federal government is the creature of the states and it is therefore confined to the powers it had been expressly given in the Constitution. That a state could succeed from the Union pre-Civil War was a notion taken for granted. Which is why Lincoln has his critics.

He would have been given the treatment Trump is now being given, and the fucking lemming retard "Greatest Generation" would have eaten it up, and he would have been impeached. That's my best guess. Regardless, he a pro-capitalist, thus pro-plutocracy (capitalism naturally evolves into plutocracy) candidate. In his later years, he evolved into a left-libertarian.

Can you be more specific as to what you're talking about?

If it's affirmative action, I understand that there are problems with it, but those programs are literally in place because it was found that universities and workplaces simply weren't accepting minority applications regardless of how qualified they may have been. It was necessary and probably still is, at least to a limited degree.

>>129823490
The reason I gave you Sam Harris and Gad Saad was to illustrate that this stuff is more widely accepted than you supposed in your earlier comment.

>It was necessary and probably still is, at least to a limited degree.

"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." You definitely earned that flag.

Well, first of all we have to say that IQ is not some gold standard of human intelligence. It's a useful metric (especially when testing for learning disabilities or creating a specialized learning plan) but it can't necessarily be extrapolated to the level of social organization.

Secondly, it's irrelevant if Africa can develop to the exact degree of European civilization because it can absolutely and objectively develop beyond where it is NOW, so we should put the focus there for the present time.

>too many factors to be accurately modeled in simplistic taxonomic terms
>this is what communists actually believe

Yeah it's too bad we have things like DNA and genetic testing to prove you wrong.

It's too bad that when people like James Watson point out genetic differences between races they get blackballed from academia because creationist communists like you censor them.

That's why you can't bother with opinions, you can only bother with the facts.

And the facts state there are statistically significant genetic and phenotypic differences between the races, end of story. Any assertion regarding racial creationism can be safely thrown in the trash, assuming you only look at the facts and not pure leftist ideology.

If laws are being passed to "fight discrimination," when in fact there is no discrimination, those laws will have only an ill-effect.

We need to know if active, conscious discrimination is taking place, or are certain groups more gifted at things than others, and that is why we see these inequalities of outcomes throughout society.

This is why I disagree with Chomsky when he said studying group differences in IQ or whatever has no social value.

G factor general intelligence IQ(the combination of Verbal IQ, Visual-Spatial IQ, and Mathematical-Logical IQ)*is* the gold standard for reliably measuring and predicting success in a person's life. Despite intense leftist pressure these tests have been verified and reproduced multiples times for decades.

And you can't point towards "racial bias" in these tests when jews and asians score higher than whites on average.

You do realize that Kings were more zealous in the pursuit of (((heretics))) than the Church. Throne and Alter. With sola scriptura loonies there isn't even persecution of heretics and jews run free.

>Clinton just created another debt bubble after the economy crashed in the early 90s due to the oil shock. Under Clinton Alan Greenspan filled the economy with shitloads of consumer debt in a gigantic stock bubble that didn't crash until after 2000

Treason. The best compromise would have been to end Jim Crow WITHOUT communist forced integration laws and (((housing))) aka breaking up communities for 50 years.
