Thomas Sowell
“In point of fact, the racism on the campuses is greater than that in the larger society in many campuses. And what I worry about is that they're going to graduate into the general society, blacks and whites alike, who hate each other's guts and who will be the new leaders of new racial strife for the future." (ca.1990)”
Thomas Sowell

Thomas Sowell
“Epithets like "fascist" and "imperialist stooge" became common currency, along with unbridled expressions of tribal chauvinism.”
Thomas Sowell, Conquests and Cultures: An International History

Thomas Sowell
“Can you cite one speck of hard evidence of the benefits of "diversity" that we have heard gushed about for years? Evidence of its harm can be seen — written in blood — from Iraq to India, from Serbia to Sudan, from Fiji to the Philippines. It is scary how easily so many people can be brainwashed by sheer repetition of a word.”
Thomas Sowell

Thomas Sowell
“People who pride themselves on their "complexity" and deride others for being "simplistic" should realize that the truth is often not very complicated. What gets complex is evading the truth.”
Thomas Sowell, Barbarians Inside the Gates and Other Controversial Essays

“In fact, Bush’s tax cuts increased the amount of revenue collected by more than 30 percent from his first year as president to his last, just as Reagan’s and Kennedy’s tax cuts increased federal revenue after they were passed. As economist Thomas Sowell argued, “Obama knew then that tax rates and tax revenues do not automatically move in the same direction. In other words, he is lying when he talks as if tax rates and tax revenues move together.”
Jack Cashill, You Lie!: The Evasions, Omissions, Fabrications, Frauds, and Outright Falsehoods of Barack Obama
