Thomas Sowell Daily

“One of the sad signs of our times is that we have demonized those who produce, subsidized those who refuse to produce, and canonized those who complain.” — Thomas Sowell

Thomas Sowell on engineers vs intellectuals: “The engineer is judged by the end product: if he builds a building that collapses, he’s ruined.” “Conversely, if an intellectual who is brilliant has an idea for rearranging society and it ends in disaster, he pays no price at all.”

“No matter how much people on the left talk about compassion, they have no compassion for the taxpayers.” — Thomas Sowell

“When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination.” — Thomas Sowell

“Inflation is a quiet but effective way for the government to transfer resources from the people to itself, without raising taxes.” — Thomas Sowell

Governments that treat people differently based on their race routinely claim to be doing so for benevolent reasons That doesn’t change the fact that it’s wrong And unconstitutional

Thomas Sowell: “What the welfare system and other kinds of governmental programs are doing is paying people to fail.” “In so far as they fail, they receive the money. In so far as they succeed, even to a moderate extent, the money is taken away.”

“Even if the government spends itself into bankruptcy and the economy still does not recover, Keynesians can always say that it would have worked if only the government had spent more.” — Thomas Sowell
