Can you blame your parents for everything?

My favorite econ blogger responds to some of the recent discussion among the media "intellectuals" regarding the heredity of IQ, inequality, and the role race might play in those. While the debate has been going on (recently) since this, the end of it (to my satisfaction) is found here.

I also find the lofty claims to advancing truth in the face of political correctness and despite the danger of controversy in the Slate article obnoxious. Obviously the topic makes for fiery discussion and so ups the readership interest. So, I suppose it's served its purpose.

Damn, probably shouldn't link to it.
