Shall we talk about the black tax that no one wants to discuss, which is all the added policing and confinement costs associated with a large criminal black demographic residing in the city?
Sowell blew this argument out of the water years ago when they were claiming inner city stores had higher prices because “ black tax”. Sowell being an actual economist, looked over the data and found a “hillbilly” tax that existed in rural stores that also had significant crime and theft rates. Go figure.
How much smaller could jails and prisons be if the black criminality rate was indistinguishable from white? How much smaller could urban police departments be? How much more property tax revenue would be collected because property values were not depressed due to high crime?
How much additional revenue would we have had over generations if we hadn't lost lives and mental states to their violence and rape over and over? That alone is probably worth more than they have contributed to the system each year alone.

Nah, no one wants to talk about that.

But of course Sowell is a bad person for using facts and data
He also didn't vote for biden, so he ain't black
Ha! Very true

I didn't say anything about store prices.
Presumably the US incarceration rate would look more like the whitest countries in Europe with no blacks. I mean, modulo Hispanics.

They'd be next to nonexistent. Black criminality is nearly fifty times any other demographic, even Hispanics.
