Imaginary Islands

Lest my last posting on father and sons lead anyone think that ExC has gone soft, let me replay one of my fun thought experiments. I find that these clear away a lot of mental rubbish.

Five Islands

On five separate islands, with similar natural resources, deposit 10,000 people each.

On one island, Whites, an another Blacks, on others Hispanics, Asians and, as a control, so to speak,
a population that mirrors the current multiracial demographics of the US.

Provide each of the five islands with the same resources and, to start out, similar governments and then...watch what happens.

As John Lennon sang, "Imagine."

The Electrical Company on EuroIsle would be named "White Power" and there likely would be no hint of irony in any of it.
