The dreadful irony is that as discrimination lessened, and opportunity increased, the rate of illegitimate births and marital breakdown among blacks sky rocketed, more people became chronically unemployed in the inner city, drug abuse increased, and so did violence.

You see this in the Balkans too. There was a much lower tolerance for outcry of any kind when you are held in place by an authoritarian regime. It's hard to argue that the Balkans are better off now with the Soviet influence out. That's where dogma must stop -- what was it about the Soviet presence that stabilized it? Repression can produce order and the removal, chaos. That is strange, but true.
