- Where The Money Is...

Another Thomas Sowell Interview. I was going to wait until they released the whole series, but this section is simply too good to wait. I'll repost it all together after.

The TV series Free To Choose changed America because it educated tons of people about how the Economy really works. I always thought it would be great if Tom Sowell did a similar TV piece on Racism and race relation in America. He may lack Milton Friedman's elven charm, but his depth of knowledge on the topic is really beyond dispute.

In a format similar to FTC he can do a little demonstration of how racism has really worked historically, and then he and Walter Williams can smack around people like Spike Lee, Jesse Jackson, and whatever rapper du jour is making the headlines baling 'the man'.

You can't tell me that wouldn't be a ratings grabber for PBS. Unfortunately it will never happen because it would tear apart one of (if not 'the') central premise of liberalism - that the winners have won only because of systemic unfairness, and the losers must have more government to 'fix' things.

It's a shame though. It would make great TV and maybe change American for the better. Too bad that's not what TV news is about.
