Schools don’t teach this during Black History Month
By TOM QUINER Poverty is largely a function of family structure, as you can see in the graphic above. You can see the inverse relationship between the out-of-wedlock birth rate and median income.

Saint Mother Teresa posed a provocative question: “… if a mother can kill her own unborn baby, what is left of Western civilization to save?” There’s no question that Western civilization is under attack. ‘Western Civ’ is a decreasingly required course in institutions of higher learning.
