“I love Sowell.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
He may be the number one living human I would like to have the privilege of meeting and talking with. I am sure that he is not perfect, I’m certainly not and don’t know any human who is but he has a way of looking at reality and expressing it in such a succinct way that no one should have any problem understanding what he is saying. Almost never have I read a sentence of his with which I could find some grounds for disagreement. He seems to stay so grounded in the basics of reality that he stands in stark contrast to those who wander off into the wilderness and lose track of their starting point. He always remembers that he set out to drain the swamp and never allows himself to be caught up to his arse in alligators.
I would love to meet him, too.
I have disagreed with him a few times, not on principles but on action. Nevertheless I think he is BRILLIANT and a PLEASURE to read.
