Michael Lewis was on Colbert Report tonight. He talks about a poor black kid who is taken into a rich white family. IQ goes up, does better in all aspects in life. Winds up being a great talent in Football. He would not have made anything of himself if not given opportunities. I wonder how many great people never get the chance to make their mark. How many Vincis, Einsteins, and other great people are there out there who we will never know. When I was young, the traveling memorial wall for the Vietnam War came to town. I talked to one of the Veterans there, and they asked how may of the dead soldiers could have done something great. Could one of them have cured cancer? Even at a young age, it made me think about the unintended consequences of political decisions.
