I don't like the thinly veiled attacks on the rich or the "greedy" corporations.
You obviously are in for a treat. You actually have not read enough Thomas Sowell to know when you are reading wisdom. Run, do not walk, to your library and find one of his books. Or search for his name in google and find his columns on the Internet.

Professor Sowell has no interest in "veiled" attacks or insinuations; he is no sophist (wise guy) but a sincere philosopher (that means, "lover of wisdom"). Sowell would never argue that something is true because he says so. But if he says something, you can figure that you can take it to the bank.

Hear! Hear!

Absolutely. My library include his every word and for the reasons you have mentioned and the many others that mark him as a Great American Man, Doctor Sowell is really close to being my (other) favorite American.

Please heed his advice, L98, you'll be in for a treat!
