Post in Which I Help Thomas Sowell


I enjoy reading Thomas Sowell's Random Thoughts. He's always got a few good observations to share. Like this:

After political crusades for "affordable housing" ended up ruining the housing market and much of the economy with it, many of the same politicians are now carrying on a crusade for "affordable health care." But what you can afford has absolutely nothing to do with the cost of producing anything. Refusing to pay those costs means that you are just not going to continue getting the same quantity and quality-- regardless of what any politician says or how well he says it.

See what I mean, that's exactly right.

He asked another question today in the commentary and I know the answer:

Whatever happened to Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel? Could she have met with foul play? Where is the FBI when we need them?

I don't know where the FBI is but Samantha Brown is in Tennessee. No foul play. Here's her Travel Channel page. Glad to be of help.
