The Equality Bomb

Bombs destroy a city; an equality bomb destroys a people.


The Equality Bomb, like rent control, is manufactured by well-intentioned rulers who don't understand what they are doing. They, just as advocates of rent control, see disparities among groups in the population, are pained by them, and seek to do good by eradicating them.

"I should sooner live in a society governed by the first two thousand names in the Boston telephone directory than in a society governed by the two thousand faculty members of Harvard University." - William Buckley

The Equality Bomb is a hard-hitting look at the train wreck that is the American School system. It is a train wreck based on the idea that all people are equal in terms of their ability and that education can be bought. The whole country is obsessed with the idea of equality, and while the black-white ability gap undeniably exists, the reason for this gap is not what you may have been told.

 

The Equality Bomb explores

  • The most important court cases
  • The 21 schools most affected
  • Guidance on what can be done to reverse the damage
  • Evidence that No Child Left Behind is unachievable

About the Author

HUGH MCINNISH WAS BORN IN 1934 in Union Springs, Alabama. He worked as an engineer for the US Army in the Star Wars and other defense programs. Hugh wrote a weekly column for the old Huntsville News from which came his book An American in Exile, written under the pen name, Thomas Franklin. Hugh's wife, Martha, is a graduate of Judson College and is a teacher and school counselor. Together they have four children and six grandchildren.
JIM JACKSON WAS A HIGHLY RESPECTED ENGINEER and manager for NASA during the heyday of German rocket scientist Wernher von Braun and the Apollo Moon Landing Program. All his working days, however, he was sorely plagued with a weekly recurring emotional disturbance. This problem is as yet unnamed, so rare is it: Each Friday he would lapse into depression, owing to thoughts that his superiors insisted he not come to work the next day. Nevertheless, he accomplished the work of seven days in five. Today, Jim, a widower and the father of two sons and five grandchildren, is adjusting to life in the leisure and comfort of a retirement home.
