Sowell Snippets:
[Question] What do you think of the Obama administration when viewing it through the many concepts laid out in your book?
Thomas Sowell: It’s very hard to answer that without using language that is totally inappropriate in polite society. But it is quite clear that they believe it is their job to take decisions out of the hands of the voting public.
And there are any number of ways they can do that, including rushing through huge bills faster than anybody can possibly read them, including the congressmen who vote on them.
They made statements during the campaign that are totally the opposite of what they will actually do. One of the more recent examples being the notion that unlike previous administrations they’d be transparent and broadcast the hearings on C-SPAN.
In fact, all of the big decisions are made behind closed doors, in one case locked doors, more so than in previous administrations. They want to supersede the public and put into operation what the anointed think should be done.

Question: The next is from Jacob Hacker, a political science professor at Yale who has spent his entire career in academia. Here’s the title from one of his recent papers: “How to Structure Public Health Insurance Plan Choice to Ensure Risk-Sharing, Cost Control, and Quality Improvement.”
Sowell: Third parties will structure how millions of people adjust to millions of different circumstances. In a sense, it is childish to imagine they can do this. But central planning has been tried for a very long time in many countries around the world.
Fortunately, most countries have discovered from bad experience — even socialist and communist countries have jettisoned it in most cases.
Question: Would you say his knowledge of political science is seeping into another area where he has no experience?
Sowell: Not seeping, charging. Charging into another area. Or as I would put it, stepping off a very high cliff.
