Eli Broad put his stamp on Los Angeles cultureâand his foot down on its public schools.
A version of this article first ran in the Los Angeles Times.
In Los Angeles as everyplace else, the rich, for better and worse, we shall always have with us. The obituary tributes to Eli Broad have rightly noted the singularity of his achievements, most notably, making the city an epicenter not just of creating contemporary arts, but of exhibiting them as well, and most, in a sense, stamped with his name. At various points in the past three decades, he didnât so much personify the cityâs business-civic elite as actually comprise it in its entirety. ....

But the Broad version of rich-man civic engagement was just one of many that Los Angeles has seen. In the first half of the 20th century, the Chandler family, which owned The Times and a good deal else around town, and the Committee of 25, which consisted of leading local insurance, banking and retail magnates, dominated local politics. Together, they ensured that neither unions nor liberals nor moderate Republicans ....

The emblematic politician whose rise was funded by that generation of Chandlers and the Committee of 25 was Richard Nixon. ....

Alien Nation Review:  The New Democrat, July 1995—PALE RIDER | Articles

Peter Brimelow’s
Alien Nation, a meditation on the remaking of contemporary America through immigration, reminds me of the most famous of all spaghetti westerns. In this book, you’ll find the good (a little), the bad (a lot), and the ugly (altogether too much). Although there is a great need for thoughtful criticism of our immigration system a topic that incites passionate sentiments you won’t find much of it here.
First, the good. Brimelow, a senior editor at
Forbes, is at his strongest in assembling various critiques of current immigration policy. Strewn like confetti throughout the book, most of them were originally developed by other antiimmigration writers such as the University of California’s George Borjas. Here’s a sampling of the main points: ....

But McCarthy’s Irishness was central to his identity, as is evident in his writings as well as the issues about which he was passionate.
McCarthy struck those who knew him as a scholar, and he was indeed remembered not just as a congressman and senator, but also as a poet and essayist, who proudly claimed that he wrote in the “Irish mystic” tradition of Yeats. He also wrote at length about Ireland’s place in the 21st-century world, musing about the downside of the Celtic Tiger, and the strained relationship between the U.S. and Ireland. ....
