Thomas Sowell, one of the nation’s finest economists and writers has just announced that he will no longer be writing his regular column. If you have not read his articles and books, you are impoverished. Change that. He has the rare talent of explaining complex ideas in palatable bites and the wisdom and insight to understand how the world really works. We hope he will keep writing, even if not on such a regular basis, and appreciate the opportunity to say thank you and God bless to a great American.
“Much of the social history of the Western world,
over the past three decades, has been a history of replacing what worked
with what sounded good.”
I was so saddened when I read that. What a wonderful mind he has. I have been blessed with his insight into the matters of our nation and world. Hope we see someone step into the place he has held. He always, “got it” and helped me understand nuances of situations I wouldn’t have come to on my own.
Thank goodness that Dr. Sowell isn’t announcing his retirement. Only that he’s not continuing with his syndicated column. Let’s hope and pray that this frees him up for even more spectacular commentary.
