I have learned from experience that using logic does not end any argument with a leftist. Their ability to deny reality at all costs is truly impressive.
Come on, man! After the right gave us a grifting, multiple bankruptcy, reality tv star for a president and started following batshit crazy Q conspiracy theories???
@@ericanderson7346 “conspiracy theories”? Right. Let’s talk about “bat shit crazy conspiracy theories” -- trump colluded with the Russians(turns out it was the Hillary campaign that did that) -- Jessie Smollet was attacked by “white” suprematist trump supporters supporters(who were a couple of black guys he hired to attack him😂) -- trump told a bunch of his supporters to riot(he told them to go home, peacefully) - Kyle Rittenhouse was a white supremacist who killed unarmed black men(turns out he was a blm supporter who was attacked by blm radicals(two were white, two were armed and all of them attacked him first) - Nicholas Sandman was a white suprematist trump supporter who got in the face of some poor Indian to harass him(turns out anyone who watched that video knew that was horse $#!t)….. I could write a book on this one because you people could literally fill books with your “bat shit crazy” conspiracy theories. You lie constantly, and believe lies as a matter of course. You are at war with reality.
@@ANDROLOMA Your personal experiences with christians notwithstanding, logic is neither anti or pro Christian. There are smart Christians and dumb Christians, educated and uneducated Christians… logical and illogical, ect.

@faitheternal3015 I agree that people should not all b lumped in together because of one trait. I have noticed that in the U.S., the Democrats and Leftists do that very thing a lot. They reflexively view people in terms of "group identity". They seem to expect, for instance, that all Black Americans must vote Democrat. For example, in 2020, when Democrat candidate Biden was running for President, he famously & boldly told a Black podcaster, "If you don't vote for me, you ain't Black!"
The culture of black people cant acknowledge a black intellectual who is successful while simultaneously being a victim. That being said, there is a shift happening in the black culture. People are becoming aware of the propaganda and the agenda, thus making it more difficult to manipulate them.
To @sanchezking6188 As the saying goes, "Follow the money!" Along with your original question, two more questions are "How well designed was the study?" and "Was it designed to give a predetermined outcome?"
Ah yes. The typical right wing argument. No need for any sort of study or expert on a subject to help solve a problem. The right seems to think that only their experience speaks to how things should be.
"When once a Republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is either useless or a new evil." -- Thomas Jefferson
@John Deere What planet have you been living on ? It took a Democrat [much, much longer than it should have] to propose a bill outlawing stock trading by Congress. I would like you to read "The Party is Over: How Republicans Went Crazy, Democrats Became Useless and the Middle Class Got Shafted" by Mike Lofgren, former staffer to a Republican Congressman. My favorite part is where he describes a talk with a Republican Congressman who wanted to find a way to make sure the bottom 10% of earners paid some kind of income taxes so he could give a tax break to the top 10% of earners. The GOP dream [the opposite of Robin Hood] take from the poor and give to the rich.
@John Deere No, not just as bad. Democrats only get a C, but Republicans get an F- . As least the Democrats give lip service to trying to help people who aren't multi-millionaires.
@@inwalters You do realize you can’t give a tax break to people who don’t pay taxes right ? A tax break is a percentage of what you “owe” the government in taxes, 50% of the country pays no income taxes so it’s not possible to give them a tax break.
@@Viking380 Yes, I think his plan was to lower the limit where you start paying taxes to zero, so if you made any amount, you owed some percentage as taxes, as well as eliminating all those deductions that got low income people to no taxes. I suggest read the book, it has been a while since I read it so my memory is hazy on the exact details of his plan.
"Whatever you do to deal with one of man's flaws, it creates another problem. But you try to get the best tradeoff you can get and that's the best you can hope for." Sowell is unique in his ability to describe complex ideas in a clear, eloquent, and interesting way. He's a national treasure.
Here is one thing the left is doing to deal with one of man's flaws...TOLERANCE. How will this create another problem? That's where the paradox of tolerance comes in to play. The paradox of tolerance says that when a society becomes infinitely tolerant, it will eventually tolerant something that will destroy it. They are dividing us, under the guise of UNITY! Critical race theory is one of their tools. How can we be more tolerant of racism and wipe it out, if CRT is teaching kids to be racist in a different way?
@@Badkitty24 CRT in grade school is like the Tide Pod challenge: we all heard about it nonstop yet there are very few instances of it actually occurring. What ended up happening is that knee jerk reactions from conservative parents and lawmakers started to regard teaching things like slavery in America and the Civil Rights movement as CRT. There’s been far more effort to remove these things from the curriculum or sanitize them than there has been of telling white kids they’re oppressors (which btw, is not CRT).
Thomas is a great man. Im 32 and discovered him about 9 yrs ago. And glad i did. Ive learned alot from him. Hes definitely someone that people need to know about.
What you mean,is what a soft interview. No challenge whatsoever. Anybody can make a point, but to argue it in a robust way against a competent interviewer is the real skill and Thomas Sowell did not need to demonstrate that skill. There is no way such a soft interview would have taken place here in the UK and that is why our democracy is not under threat in the same way that yours is in the US.
all his interviews are "nice interviews" - they are all staged by the Hoover institution so that Sowell can throw out his worn out quips and super conservative economic BS without questioning his childish quotes...he is not a scholar, he is a pundit. I guess I would sum up by asserting he is a liar and a hypocrite.
They want to help the poor while they are poor and the other wants to help them to stop being poor. This man has one of the most amazing abilities to put complex ideas into easily digestible terms.
Well, we have had capitalism for 200 years and currently poverty is worse now than it was before in spite of it. Where is this magical reality where capitalism has helped stop people from being poor exactly? We are slaves to it, where we can lose our lives by not having money to pay for rent. That is a system that legally murders people.
@@steviacandyman7892 Poverty is not worse now. That is a verifiably false statement. People have economic mobility in this country and only about 5% of the people who have lived in poverty stay in poverty. Capitalism has allowed for people to earn money with having relatively little skill because if people are willing to pay for it you can capitalize on it. Look at RU-vid, there are people who make a living just trying on clothing or just playing video games. Life requires work and nothing is guaranteed. You have only yourself to blame for the outcomes of your life. I am no longer living in poverty due to my efforts. I have no college degree and no formal training in a trade. I just to what ever job I could and learned what I could and worked to improve myself and used that to get a better paying job elsewhere. The problem is to create incentives for living in poverty where people are given the means to live without earning it. That is a system that people are slaves to. It creates fear and anxiety and a unhealthy dependency on others
@@CrazyManwich This, I wasn't born into a well off household, I have my debts too. However with that said, I'm making a good life for myself and am removing those debts at a rather good rate. If you actually work hard and make good choices, you can get into a better situation, if you blame everyone else for your problems and demand others to fix it, you rely on the ability and the mercy of them.
Think about it - if the poor stopped being poor, then they might not vote for the left anymore. Once people start actually earning money, they're not as willing to let the government steal it anymore. People who want to help the poor get more opportunities to succeed tend to love capitalism. People who want to just enable poor people at the expense of others tend to love socialism. They don't care about helping the poor, they just care about keeping them in poverty. Because only those stuck in poverty will vote for them.
@@CrazyManwich - Such rare examples are just that, rare. Like winning the lottery is rare. For every success you want to give capitalism credit for, there are tons of failures for the fight to make enough money to NOT DIE. That is not efficient and it is cruel and unfair. You cannot give people incentives if they know the odds of success are not likely. Guess what, we all depend on each other to live whether you like it or not. You survive each day because someone ELSE provides you with the goods and services you require to be alive. You didn't do it yourself. So, you can stop that nonsense right now. In capitalist economies, 1/3 of all food produced is DESTROYED that is perfectly edible and could feed the worst affected countries that have starvation. That is what capitalism does for the poor who will die without help. Nothing. While they are doing that so more people die of starvation, they also make more profit from creating the artificial shortage they caused by charging higher prices at the stores.
@@brentsaylor1725 - Not really. Last time I checked, workers are still exploited globally, poverty is worse than ever before because of capitalist wars and sanctions, socialists are being falsely accused of the cause of economic disparity and so, no, the fact of the matter is global capitalism is everywhere and it will only get worse.
Oh that would have been so fun to see. Up in Canada I still hope that Jordan B. Peterson would run for Canadian Prime Minister, but he seems to be happy to just prop up our far right Conservative leaders instead of putting himself actually out there as a politician. Too bad, he is self-aware enough to know his attempted run would be a big joke. As bad as our pychopath rich Shark Tank and Dragon's Den guy, Kevin O'Leary, who tried to run but couldn't get any significant support.
@@JTPF7604 Neither can Biden, and he *is* the president! Seriously, that's why I said I wish that he had run. Meaning at some time in the past. Maybe twenty or thirty years ago.

A good fourth question: If you think the government has a responsibility to provide you with "everything you need" - Who gets to decide "what you need"? The answer should send chills down even a lefty's spine.
I haven't met any person who believes the government should supply people with "everything they need." Where do you get that from? I know people who believe the government has a responsibility to care for the people, to bring them up to a point of self-reliance and able to take care of themselves. In fact, that somebody was the late great, Carl Sagan, who said so on CNN during an interview with Ted Turner. You are free to disagree with Carl Sagan, but you should have a better argument.
@@coolioso808Responsibility to "care" !? You mean "take care" or "caring" ? People are responsible for themselves while governments are only responsible for making sure people can "pay" them through taxing!
@@jasfan8247 It was Sagan who said it. He believed the "government has a responsibility to care for the people, to bring them up to a point of self-reliance." He didn't get into too many details about what he means by that, but he did bring up the fact that USA at the time was 19th in the world for infant mortality. 18 other countries save the lives of their babies better than we do. Why? They just spend more money on it. And as we all know, USA has the most expensive and least efficient privatized healthcare system in the world, and it got worse since Sagan said those things. The problem has been corporate takeover of everything to make profit. The monetary-market system breeds that greedy behaviour. While the government should be regulating excess and providing funding for universal healthcare, education, transportation, housing and things like that - which other countries do (many European nations), the US is uniquely more corrupted because of the big money influences that have set up shop in the US and literally lobby the government to get what they want, not what the majority of people want. So yeah, the root problem is the system. There is a laundry list of things the government could or should do and things that corporations could or should do, but they are unlikely to change unless a grassroots movement of social change actually develops to make a better system of mutual aid than what the deeply unequal capitalist system has provided.
Its not said, but its implied. The Left supporters just wants the gov doing more and more. Signing away their freedoms. Hiw about instead of protesting, you guys all go and clean up the streets around your homes? Make sure that old couple has fresh meals a few times a week. Take care of your animals(human and otherwise) properly. Once you have your house I order you help others. You don't demand some other people help some other people.
There is a scene in "Atlas Shrugged" where the main character is on a train talking to a homeless guy who used to work in a factory whose owner had died and it was taken over by his kids. They tried to run the factory under banner of "Of each according to their need". It talks about how it all went downhill, workers who needed new roofs were ignored because other workers had kids so their need to feed their kids was higher than the other workers need to have adequate shelter etc. Anytime someone was going to have a child Instead of being happy for them all the workers were pissed off knowing their needs just dropped further down the list etc.

@@generalmarkmilleyisbenedic8895 I’m sorry but as much as I dislike President Obama’s policies and actions in making the country more partisan, more racially charged and less governable (I could go on) and generally being a lazy politician, he was born in the US.

I’m as far right as they come on many issues and I dislike President Obama on many many levels but the birther conspiracy theories are bunk. We need to fight on the issues and we can win there.
Thomas Sowell is a wonderful person. More people should appreciate this great soul. I really needed something like this right now. Sorry for being mushy, but thank you Good Sir. Thank you so much.
Hey, just wanted to let you know, a person over a year later read your RU-vid comment and thought you were a good person trying to put a little bit of love and positivity out there to make the world a very slightly better place. I see this and it made me a bit happier. Know you know what your small effort here has down. And how many others, too! I really wish this was more how folks used social media, my friend: just like you.

1:13 "There are three questions that I think would destroy most of the arguments on the left. The first is, "compared to what?" The second is "at what cost?" The third is "what hard evidence do you have?" Now there are very few ideas on the left that can pass all three of those kinds of things." - Thomas Sowell
Understand that most arguments coming from someone on the left involves their claims about how well they understand the right. That's like feminists claiming they know what's it's like to be a man.
During COVID a woman from up north moved into Palm Beach County. She started a petition demanding rent control. She was a travelling massage therapist (a 1099)who was angry that her new landlady raised the rent. Her story was profiled on our local news. She demanded that landlords be capped at no more than 10%. When she was told her business should be capped, that pencil pushers in government will cap her wages - she shut up.
That's mostly because he is so deeply and broadly EDUCATED! He has read thousands of books and has the power to truly understand everything he observed throughout the course of his life. He would be the first person to tell us that we must do the very same thing he did. In Buddhism, they say, "Cultivate wisdom." That's what he did; he cultivated wisdom so that he really understands what he sees. Teach your children how to look at the surface of things AND at all that underlies events, so that they can develop a historical grasp of events and the motives of the players on the national stage. He's not just a truth-teller, he really understands what he is seeing. No one can pull the wool over Thomas Sowell's eyes. Cultivate wisdom, teach it to your children, reinforce it in your own mind.
@@nnotny that is why it is the last question. what hard evidence do you have that your comparison is accurate? what hard evidence do you have of the cost? if you can measure the comparison, and you can measure the cost... well it just is not much of a solution now is it?

@@the45er You don't have the brainpower to doubt it. Sowell figured out that being a minority mouthpiece for the corporate class was a path to success, much like Clarence Thomas. Is he doing anything to improve lives, or just voicing what lower income whites want to hear and wealthy whites want to say? Are you familiar with the Hoover Institute and its goals? He's a gift alright.
@@kimobrien. The irony of this statement. I ask you this question sowell mentioned in this video and see if you can answer it. You say hes defending or promoting capitalist businesses with these ideas. Compared to what? What system is better than capitalism even with its flaws? Communism? Marxism? Fascism?
@@pc2555 Marx and Engels wrote the Manifesto in 1848. The Paris Commune of 1871 lasted 70 days. The Russian Revolution of 1917 70 years. The Cuban Revolution of 1959 is still a living revolution of 65 years. I watched 60 minutes last night they were talking about Empty Commercial Real Estate creating a slow moving financial train wreck creating a crisis on par with 2008. We are a lot further along since the manifesto in both theory and in economics.
@@pc2555 You didn't defeat Marxism or Communism in 1989. All you defeated was Stalinism. You don't have the unchecked ability to intervene militarily since Vietnam and Afghanistan and you don't have the ability to use the old Soviet or Chinese leaderships like at the end of the Vietnam war. A revolution with new leaders is going to break out and it's not going to be easy to contain.
@@kimobrien. Are you really trying to say that America's quality of life, level of wealth and freedoms that the average person can attain (not just the rich) is in any way comparable to the Soviet Union which collapsed and Cuba? Even in an economic downturn like 2008 or even the great depression in the 1930s, I think almost anyone would rather live in a capitalist country like the USA as opposed to Cuba.
@@robertwelsh4094Thomas sowell has a brilliant mind and has been a major force in American thinking for decades. Just because you haven't heard of him because you live inside the liberal Hive doesn't change any of that
I've only discovered Thomas Sowell since the Trump administration once I stopped following news networks and started doing my own research via alternatives and wish I had access to this man's knowledge and vision while in school at every level, but it's never too late, I hope more of his messaging reaches the masses as they are the very definition of 'how to think vs what to think'.
1 - Socialism. 2 - There would be no extra cost, since the rich would either pay 95% taxes or give up their unearned profits to the workers. 3 - We have 200 years of capitalism and its economic destruction of people's lives and its control over our politicians who make laws favoring the owner class.
So the so-called Right can answer those questions? Unfettered capitalism works compared to what? And they will compare it to the totalitarian states that are called Communist or Socialist, but are clearly nothing of the kind. They are dictatorships. At what price? Ask the thousands of people living on the streets in the US about the price of Capitalism. They are really benefiting from it, aren't they? What hard evidence do you have? Those same people and the countless others living in poverty are the hard evidence that the free market does not benefit the majority. There are examples of countries, Denmark, Sweden, that manage to combine an economic system that allows companies to operate successfully, yet still provide a decent and effective welfare system. They don't seem to have the level of drug and other social problems the US has either. If you only compare with the opposite extreme, you are ignoring reality and real possibilities.
@@simonrunswick5730 - The body count of capitalism is well hidden by design because guess who owns all the news outlets that give information to people?

I wish I could read comments without seeing this one 100 times. Why didn’t you find the first comment that was written before you and just give them a thumbs up.
The stumbling block for Thomas Sowell is the assumption that the opposition would be willing to a discussion, when instead an ad hominem attack is their usual go-to strategy when confronted with reality.
sowell remembers a time when the left was not openly in power, and so they felt it necessary to negotiate. however as right thinking people are in the minority, these questions are an effective means to try to push the lefties in your life on a journey of intellectual discovery. wake those near you whom you can. progressives always destroy their host nations. when the bad times come reasonable associates will be most valuable...
You can no longer debate with the left as they are so far from knowing what the porblem is. They only see the symptoms of the problem and think that is the problem.. Its impossible to debate someone where you'd first have to teach them what caused the problem they're complaining about.
@@BratvaTV - The left who follow the establishment are also capitalists. They are trying to "repair" capitalism rather than replace it. In order to fix the evils of our capitalist controlled government, we have to replace it with a better system that doesn't ruin the lives of people.

Thomas Sowell’s words remind me of a quote by Ronald Reagan. “It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so.” ― Ronald Reagan
Reagan? You are kidding right? The guy that gave us the 2 worst recessions (at that time) since the Great Depression (82, 86), tripled our national debt in 6 years, took us from being the world's largest creditor nation to largest debtor nation in 6 years, grew government faster and bigger than Carter, Clinton, Obama, and Biden, and proposed and signed into law 10 tax increases. Jimmy Carter was right: "It is typically Republican to say one thing, and do the opposite.."
I had always wished this man had run for office, someone who I could have stood by, stood up for and followed as one of the best minds America brought to the table. An incredible man one to admire.
The good doctor, makes a lot of sense. If you want to help someone teach them a skill. In my opinion liberal want you stay down so we have a under class. Someone they can point to and demand help for them with out every giving them a chance to better themselves.
In Education, there is a BIG difference between being OPEN to Opposing ideas that just MAY be right, even when they prove you wrong, and Stubbornly clinging to a Belief in spite of the Hard Scientific evidence, just because it makes you "feel good". The latter is the mark of a Juvenile, childlike mind.
Dr. Sowell is an adversary of self-pity, and I for one wish I had discovered his teachings years ago. I spent so many years blaming others and feeling sorry for myself. Part of improving myself was my change in my mentality on my own, but when I discovered his videos it just strengthened my resolve even more to improve myself. No matter what race or nationality we are he has so much to teach us. You could just look at that as common sense. "Hard work equals success." But sometimes you just need to hear someone say that.

moreso that the institutions at play right now have been soiled with glad-handing leftists borne from the 60s onward, hence the media we get is inundated with its messages. sowell talks about this at length too. as an asian from a leftist family he speaks to me and everyone else about this basic truth you refer to as common sense, which is increasingly less common.
In my experience most people argue because 1 person "Wants to argue". After arguing and getting nowhere I told the other person that they were "Right" but that caused another argument because the other person just wanted to make an issue .
Unless it takes the rest of your life to memorize all three questions.
2 года назад
they're basic logical assumptions. what you need to do is read philosophy and get better at logical, critical thought. whenever something is said my mind immediately takes it apart logically and often, one of these three questions sowell mentions is what pops up. not because i'm a genius, or sowell is, but because if you understand logic you can pick apart anything anyone tries to assert without complete rationale. go read some aristotle. lol oh and be forewarned this is obviously needed to be applied to yourself and your thoughts and arguments, but it can be difficult to do so. this is why debate is healthy.
I would never presume to argue with him. Both his intellect and knowledge are demonstrably greater than mine. So if the occasion ever arose, I would be humbled just to listen to him speak.
The point of argument like that from Dr. Sowell is not to win in your statement mission like it's an ideological crusade against a threat posed as an evil individual, society, or organization, but to learn and be informed of the situation through dialogue that would lead to wisdom and better judgement of the character and the situation regarding a problem or a crisis.
@@uncaboat2399 Yes and if he's thinking he'll realize that Sowell is full of it. Any intelligent conservative can insult the crazy left. Sowell has to twists truths into lies to do it.

That is my opening statement.
The unintended consequences of solutions we create will end up destroying us. Starting with this whole pronouns thing and gender is a social construct idea.
