The Hoover Institute, a conservative thinktank, publishes a number of books, including More Liberty Means Less Government: Our Founders Knew This Well — which they adverstise with these controversial excerpts:
Women in the Military. “At Parris Island, it was discovered that 45 percent of female Marines were unable to throw a hand grenade far enough to avoid blowing themselves up. If I were in a foxhole with a woman about to toss a hand grenade, I’d consider her the enemy.”Racial and Gender Quotas. “The only reason the elite haven’t mandated quotas for women, Japanese, and other underrepresented groups in the NBA and the NFL is because the folly and costs of their cosmic justice vision would be exposed.”
Affirmative Action. “Too many blacks receive twelve years of fraudulent primary and secondary education that cannot be overcome by four years of college. Unfortunately, liberals and civil rights organizations add to that disaster by giving unquestioned support to a corrupt education establishment that produces the fraud.”
The Americans with Disabilities Act. “In some quarters, the ADA is taken to stand for ‘Attorney’s Dream Answered.’ And who pays? You and I, through higher prices or less convenience.”
The Minimum Wage. “Low wages are more a result of people being underproductive than being underpaid. They simply do not have the skills to produce and do things their fellow man highly values. The minimum wage law is evil legislation and deserving of repeal altogether.”
