Jan. 24, 2002: Written by an unabashed Libertarian, this book talks about things that it's not politically correct to say (at least in public). I'll list each one.

Blacks Are More Racist than Whites - The subtlties of black racism. Very interesting. Also statistics to back it up.

The Media Bias -- It's Real, It's Widespread, It's Destructive - I read the first part of this one. He shows how the media doesn't intentionally exhibit biased reporting. It's just the way reporters and journalists interact and exchange information. Also, how certain ideologies are taken for granted as factual.

There Is No Health Care "Crisis" - Another fascinating look into the medical industry. Why we don't have enough doctors, why they see themselves as above other businesses, and why the medical profession along with the Government has kept it that way.

Republicans Versus Democrats -- Maybe a Dime's Worth of Difference - It made me think. Granted he's a Libertarian, so a lot of his criticism was geared toward an extreme way of fixing the country's political problems. But he raised some good points. I'll read this chapter more thoroughly when I buy the book.

Gun Control Advocates -- Good Guys with Blood on Their Hands - Quotes "More Guns, Less Crime" a lot. This was an abbreviated version of that book. Still, it was good.

These chapters I didn't read. I'll read them (and the previous ones again) after I buy the book.
The War Against Drugs Is Vietnam II: We're Losing This One, Too
White Condescension Is as Bad as Black Racism
The Glass Ceiling -- Full of Holes
America's Greatest Problem: Not Crime, Racism, or Bad Schools -- It's Illegitimacy
America's Welfare State: The Tyranny of the Status Quo
