Market doomsayer Marc "Dr. Doom" Faber has launched a racially charged diatribe in his latest newsletter, alleging that the U.S. is great primarily because it is ruled by white people.
The eccentric Gloom, Boom & Doom report author, who often speaks on CNBC and other financial media, generally forecasting some type of market downturn, focused his latest comments on the racial conflicts happening around the country.
(A CNBC spokesperson said it will not book him in the future.)
"And thank God white people populated America, and not the blacks. Otherwise, the US would look like Zimbabwe, which it might look like one day anyway, but at least America enjoyed 200 years in the economic and political sun under a white majority," he wrote.
"I am not a racist, but the reality — no matter how politically incorrect — needs to be spelled out."
Reached for comment via email, Faber did not back away from his statements to CNBC.
"If stating some historical facts makes me a racist, then I suppose that I am a racist. For years, Japanese were condemned because they denied the Nanking massacre," he told CNBC in an email.

He is an old man. If I’m not mistaken he lives in some far-off place like Singapore or something like that. A place where political correctness is not enforced. He probably no longer cares what he says and probably no longer cares if he gets appearances on television in the United States. In other words he is truly free to State what he believes

He is right, of course!
Why must we continue to debate this issue - it is settled science!

Didn’t he build furniture, or houses out in The Hamptons?
Saw him in a car one day. It was raining but I didn’t have money for a push-button mini-umbrealla. Nothing was working for me.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Opposing racism with racism is a self defeating tactic. It was Christian values that blessed this land.

He is entirely correct. Something like 26,000 miles of oceanfront property in Africa, not one instance of building sea worthy ships or exploration. All races are not equal. Just as blacks are better at physical sports, other races are better at “mental” sports.

Yes, it is about Christianity not race.
