The Pop Perspective
I guess everyone is starting culture blogs these days, and hopefully, The Pop Perspective, helmed by Haley Swenson, will be more widely read than my own. It certainly deserves to be. I’d like to associate myself with her remarks on West Virginia and its reputation for inbreeding. Apparently, there actually isn’t anymore inbreeding or incest in West Virginia than anywhere else in the United States, the reputation developed as a way to explain the extreme poverty. Because, you know, people are poor because of their deficient moral character.
