    Summary: 
    The author believes that "many efforts by liberals to help the black underclass not only fail but often harm the intended beneficiaries.

Minimum-wage laws may lift earnings for people who are already employed, but they also have a long history of pricing blacks out of the labor force. Affirmative action in higher education was intended to address past discrimination, but the result is fewer black college graduates ... than would have existed in the absence of racial preferences"--
