Interview with Thomas Sowell at RWN
If you’re a fan of Thomas Sowell like I have been for the last two decades, there’s an interview that John Hawkins of Right Wing News did with him recently that you must read. Here’s a sample;
John Hawkins: Now, in recent years we started to hear more people calling to get rid of the Federal Reserve. Good idea, bad idea? What are your thoughts?
Thomas Sowell: Good idea.
John Hawkins: Good idea? What do you think we should replace it with? What do you think we should do?
Thomas Sowell: Well it’s like when you remove a cancer what do you replace it with?
While I’m linking stuff, our buddy Zombie sent the latest post by Zombie at Pajama Media entitled “Human Rights Imperialism: Leftist Satire or Moral Collapse?”
The Guardian recently published a wicked satire of moral relativism, a Swiftian send-up entitled “End human rights imperialism now” with the classic sub-heading “Groups such as Human Rights Watch have lost their way by imposing western, ‘universal’ standards on developing countries.” Brilliant! Hahahahaha! I didn’t know the Guardian had branched out into humor.
But about five minutes after my laughter subsided, a horrible suspicion dawned on me: Could it be that the author was serious?
Two good posts from two great blogger friends.
I’m ALL about ending the Fed. Bernake is the poster child for why having the Fed is a monumentally BAD idea.
Ie: Quantitative easing I&II …
You know you’d think liberals which see shadow governments in every corporation would scream for the Fed to end, which is a shadow board that arbitrarily decides things with no consent given or input received. They can literally decide the dollar is doing too well and kill it.
As for a swiftian article, the only way you can tell if their serious is if you talk to them in person. or if its so clearly over the top as to be ludicrous
