Bits O' Wisdom

One of the worst parts of being too busy is that I don't get enough time to read the works of the great ones.
Thomas Sowell is one of those of whom I can not get enough. His quiet, but inescapable, logic is a true source of inspiration to me.
Here he is covering a medley of topics with wit and intelligent insight. My favorite was this:
[[ Amid all the media hysteria over the price of gasoline and the profits of "Big Oil," one simple fact has been repeatedly overlooked: The oil companies' earnings are just under 10 percent of the price of a gallon of gas, while taxes take 17 percent. Yet who ever accuses the government of "greed"? ]]
Go and read it, you will be smarter than before you started!
Stop Continental Drift!
