Wow: Michael Barone defends Richwine, Charles Murray

May 17, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

WashingtonExaminer:

Charles was entirely accurate in stating that Richwine’s conclusion that Hispanics have lower-than-average IQs is accurate and, among specialists in this area, non-controversial. (…)

He does seem to favor shifting our system toward admitting more high-skill applicants, as do I and many others, and as do the immigration systems of our Anglosphere cousins Canada and Australia.

This is not racist; it has resulted in rapidly growing Asian populations in those two countries. It is discrimination based on skills.

No nation has an obligation to admit every foreigner who wants to move there.
