I always thought that they should create a governmental post called "National Wise Man", exclusively for Dr. Sowell. I remember watching an old video of him debating Massachusetts's welfare chief. He absolutely took the woman's argument to pieces, with a smile on his face and a calm reasoned tone of voice.
ReplyDeleteA very intresting man. I've read a bit about him over the years.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this. I was unaware of this book. I read Sowell's columns for many years. I've read many of his books. I've cited him heavily in my academic work. He's one of the best thinkers of our time.
ReplyDeleteId'a liked to have seen a Tag-Team performance with stable Conservative Tom Sowell & off-the-wall Liberal George Carlin doing some HBO specials
ReplyDeleteThat's a darn good link, and I'll probably read the book. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhat a mind this man has. One of my all-time favorite writers.
