In a 10 minute clip of a video on William F. Buckley’s Firing Line, a Socialist was politely doing his best to advance and justify Affirmative Action. He said so much with so little to show for it. By contrast, Thomas Sowell, a Renowned Economist, said little and at the same time said much, for the ineffectiveness of a program designed with Social Justice in mind. Here’s the clip.
Having watched the entire episode, one of Thomas Sowell’s quotes seems apt.
On a general note unrelated to the clip, I remember three questions proposed by Dr. Sowell that should make anyone think about proposed actions or programs that have a “social” component to them.
They Are:
- Compared to what?
- At what cost?
- Do you have any evidence?
