To: Kaslin
which lists his 45 books, 19 journal articles, 71 essays in periodicals and books, 34 book reviews, and occasional columns written in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Star, Newsweek, The Times (Britain) et al. Plus, he writes a semiweekly column for Creators Syndicate.
Wow! I don't always agree with Dr. Sowell, but at 85 years of age, he is still one of the sharpest minds out there today.

Williams and Sowell are national treasures. Wish we could clone them.

Thomas Sowell is a brilliant man. So is Walter Williams.
They are simply excellent.

Amen, Pining! Trouble is, they’re both getting up in age —sigh...it will be a great loss when they pass......hope that the Good Lord plans to keep them around awhile!

Excellent piece on Dr. Sowell's "Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective" by Dr. Williams.

Why doesn’t FOX News contact Sowell and ask him to moderate a debate? Rather than people who talk for a living and don’t know much beyond ‘horse race’ stuff, why not put people in the moderator chair that know something?
Sowell would be my first choice.
For questions on the ME - put Danial Greenfield in a chair.
Bill Clinton and George Bush know something about politics - add them to the stage for 2 questions each.
Mayor Giuliani on ‘black lives matter’ - 2 questions and Rev Wright - 2 questions.
Let’s do this right...

"Why doesn’t FOX News contact Sowell and ask him to moderate a debate?"Excellent choice!!! If Freepers agree, just email Fox News this suggestion.

Don’t mention ‘taxing wealth’, it’ll just give “Progressives” another talking point. Once they figure out that ‘taxing the rich’ doesn’t work, that’ll be the next step.

The “progressives” will never get it that the more they want to tax the less revenue the government gets.
