― Thomas Sowell, Basic Economics: A Citizen's Guide to the Economy

“There are only two ways of telling the complete truth--anonymously and posthumously.”

“Bailing out people who made ill-advised mortgages makes no more sense that bailing out people who lost their life savings in Las Vegas casinos.”
