Socialist or Fascist?

Another great piece by Mr Sowell http://washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2012/06/socialist-or-fascist/718366 .

> Another great piece by Mr Sowell Another piece not worth reading from Mr Sowell. Like the one where he says Dr's are labeling kids as having Autism as a means of gaining government assistance with learning disabilities. Get some better sources vs the opinion piles; Sowell is a joke.

You mean when he said this? The growing number of children encompassed by a wider and looser definition of autism has been trumpeted across the land through the media as an "epidemic" of increasing numbers of cases of autism. Before 1990, 1 child out of 2,500 was said to be autistic. This year, it is said to be 1 out of 88. As Paul Sperry points out in IBD, "the number of language disorder cases have fallen as autism cases have risen, suggesting one disorder has simply been substituted for another." Having heard, over the years, from many parents of late-talking children that they have been urged to let their children be diagnosed as autistic, in order to get either government money or insurance money to pay for language problems, I am not the least bit surprised by Sperry's findings. .
