Thomas E. Woods Jr. Quote
Cradle to the grave. In fact, though, a major study released in May 2002 by the Swedish Institute of Trade (HUI) decisively punctured the myth of welfare-state prosperity in Sweden: by the end of the 1990s, Sweden’s median income was $26,800, compared to $39,400 in the United States. More to the point, the HUI economists specifically pointed out: Black people, who have the lowest income in the United States, now have a higher standard of living than an ordinary Swedish household.

About Thomas E. Woods Jr.
Woods' The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History in 2004 interpreted U.S. history through a paleoconservative and, as described by some writers, pro-Confederate lens. This, and his 2009 book Meltdown on the 2008 financial crisis, became New York Times bestsellers. His subsequent writing has focused on promoting libertarianism and libertarian leaning political figures such as former Congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul. Woods also teaches homeschooling courses on Western civilization and government called The Liberty Homeschooler as part of the Ron Paul Curriculum.
In 1994, Woods was a founding member of the League of the South, but he no longer associates with it.
