@KenMacMillan You just got me thinking. Given the current Mayor of New York, and leftist's willingness to cause disruption and resort to violence, how long before the silly "Occupy Wall Street" tantrum turns into a London redux? Despite their claims, they have a lot more in common with the London rabble than the people at Tahrir square.
One of the few times I've heard this man speak, and he's impressive as before. Ever notice how political and social genius comes off so cool, simple, and logical? And nothing he said ever sounded remotely like the garbage that comes from Al Sharpton. Two very different opinions, but only one uses logic to bridge gaps, the other uses ridiculous leaps and plain old socialist crap. (Yeah, the same crap that's already been proven to fail.)
Hopefully Mr. Sowell can set a new modern day record for longevity. He looks as healthy as any 80 year old man I've ever seen. I'm pulling for him to live another 35+ years and set a new record~
Thank you Uncommon Knowledge, for the multiple appearances of Thomas Sowell. He is easily one of the most relevant economic/political voices of the day.
Christ, this man has done the lord's work. A lifetime of great work from an astounding scholar.

"Once they realize the police aren't going to do anything, they ran amok". History repeats itself in England.

You and I and anyone you or I know is dumber than Thomas Sowell. I would scrub his underwear for the rest of my life to have him as President.

So so sad to think he might not be with us much longer. He is a national treasure.

Excellent interview as always... Dr. Sowell rocks. (hey, why not using a digitalized showing of the book instead of holding it up every min or so.)
