Thomas Sowell on the price of oil
2008-05-13 17:36:00 It is not the investor owned oil companies driving up the price of oil. Doctor Sowell, Townhall, explains the price of oil in terms simple enough for even BO and Mrs. Clinton to be able to understand: With all the commotion in the media and in politics about the high price of gasoline, is there really some terribly complex explanation? Is there anything complex about the fact that with two countries– India and China– having rapid economic growth, and with combined populations 8 times that of the United States, they are creating an increased demand for the world’s oil supply? Maybe BO and Mrs. Clinton ore too stupid to understand the law of supply and demand or maybe they are simply too greedy to place the interest of the American public ahead of the craven political ambitions. In any case, a vote for either BO or Mrs. Clinton is a vote for yet more misery at the pump. The choice is yours. � Technorati Tags: BO, China, Doctor Sowell, India, Mrs. Clin...

Thomas Sowell on Obama: A Living Lie
2008-04-15 23:42:00 Senator Obama is all talk — glib talk, exciting talk, confident talk, but still just talk. An e-mail from a reader said that, while Hillary Clinton tells lies, Barack Obama is himself a lie. That is becoming painfully apparent with each new revelation of how drastically his carefully crafted image this election year contrasts with what ...

MY ENCOUNTER WITH DR. THOMAS SOWELL
2008-01-26 00:50:00 My Encounter with Dr. Thomas Sowell By Dallas Realtor Bill Cherry PREFACE In 1975 I read in "The New Yorker" about and bought a new book with an intriguing title: Ethnic America by Thomas Sowell. Dr. Sowell is a black man who, at forty-five, decided he was going to get to the bottom of why black Americans had, in general, not progressed as much as many of the other ethnic American immigrants. He meticulously took every major group that had immigrated to America, and traced them from Day 1 to see what they had accomplished and how they had gone about doing it. Each group was a separate chapter in the book. It was fascinating. One of the things he said he learned through his research was this: "Blacks were not enslaved because they were black but because they were available. Slavery has existed in the world for thousands of years. Whites enslaved other whites in Europe for centuries before the first black was brought to the Western hem...
Economist Thomas Sowell On A Military Coup In America - Video
2007-05-30 16:14:00 I don't necessarily agree with the vast majority of ideas Dr. Thomas Sowell has, moreover, he's from Stanford. But I do like to here his take on American Society, and this video is no exception. Dr. Sowell is questioned by Hannity and Colmes on Fox about -- amoung other things -- his call for a Military Coup. He's allow to clarify his statement, where he says that he doesn't like the idea, but can see a future beyond his life where it could happen. He says this because he believes our society is becoming unravelled slowly. Here's the video:
Thomas Sowell : Coup in the USA
2007-05-05 10:19:00 In the course of a recent liberal bashing column that appeared on the National Review Online, Thomas Sowell casually dropped the following sentence ..."When I see the worsening degeneracy in our politicians, our media, our educators, and our intelligentsia, I can’t help wondering if the day may yet come when the only thing that can save this country is a military coup."A number of conservative pundits have expressed everything from disbelief to outrage that Sowell would so casually drop a reference to a coup d'etat. One of these was Professor Bainbridge, who described Sowell's comment as "absurd". The prof also wondered out loud on his blog if a coup in the US would actually have any chance of succeeding.It wouldn't succeed for a number of reasons I want to get to. But before I go there I'd like to back up and take another look at Sowell's use of the term "degeneracy" to describe US educators. I've been hearing this word a lot recently. Terms of this sort are used by people ...

A Tribute To Dr. Thomas Sowell
2005-06-24 19:34:00 A Tribute To Dr. Thomas SowellA Review of his Black Rednecks and White Liberals (San Francisco: Encounter, 2005)By Forrest W. Schultz It is long overdue that I finally commit to print the high esteem I have for the thought of Dr. Thomas Sowell. His greatness lies in his ability to find the answers to tough social problems by an unflinching examination of the data, both contemporary and historical. Unfortunately, there has been a great unwillingness to accept his conclusions because they contradict the widely held notions of our times. And they usually end up confirming what common sense and our ancestors had told us. For about the last twenty years or so Sowell has been doing in education, sociology, and economics what William Glasser did in psychology and psychotherapy 40 years ago with his Reality Therapy. From clinical studies Glasser showed that the key to overcoming psychological maladies was the patient taking responsibility for his actions and doing what is ...
