Dr. Sowell is a national treasure.
Read John Milton’s Areopagatica, which argues (extensively) the same point, which comes down to (my paraphrase):
1. Only God knows the truth;
2. While a king may be closest to the truth,
3. Even a king does not hold the truth;
4. Therefore, error must be allowed in order to test accepted truths, even those of a king.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have placed it on hold on the Libby public library app.
I don’t have any to trade, but I strongly recommend reading The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy.

Over 25 years old, and still relevant as could be.
With a little searching you can find all his audio books on youtube. I play them in my shop as I work. My faviorite, by far, (with the most ammunition to debate liberals (why bother, I know)) is “Vision of the Anointed.”
That book explains EVERYTHING going on in the modern world. Everything.
One of my favorite books. It made a great deal of sense to me.
