The Multicultural Cult
by Thomas Sowell
10/19/2010
Somebody eventually had to say it -- and German chancellor Angela Merkel
deserves credit for being the one who had the courage to say it out loud.
Multiculturalism has "utterly failed."

Multiculturalism is not just a recognition that different groups have
different cultures. We all knew that, long before multicultur... 阅读全帖

【译者的话:想翻译此文的想法有一段时间了,这是Thomas Sowell 2011年新出的一本
短文集里面的第一篇。Sowell不用介绍了,去年罗永浩推荐并最终再版的《美国种族简
史》的作者,那本书解了罗永浩对很多问题之惑。但Sowell其他著述同样精彩。
之所以很愿意翻译此文,原因很简单,他仅用一个小故事,就将很多似是而非、扯淡的
观念批判得体无完肤,那些观念大多数人都有,常常用来指责、发难别人。至于那些观
念是什么,看看这个短小精悍的故事你就知道了。】
正如电影“洛奇”和“星球大战”有续集,经典寓言也有。下面就是一个著名的寓言故
事的续集。
很久很久以前,一只蝗虫和一只蚂蚁生活在一起。整整一个夏天,蝗虫嬉戏和玩耍,而
蚂蚁在骄阳下努力工作,为冬季储存食物。
到了冬天,蝗虫就饿了。一个寒冷的雨天,他去找蚂蚁要一些食物。
“你疯了吗?”蚂蚁说。“我整个夏天累折了腰地工作,而你在旁边看热闹,笑我失去
了所有的生活乐趣。”
“我这样做了吗?”蝗虫和气地问。
“是呀!你说我是一个老脑筋,不懂现代的自我实现的理念的意义。“

A Point of No Return?

California has a huge state debt and Washington has a huge national debt.
But that does not discourage either Governor Jerry Brown or President Barack
Obama from wanting to launch a very costly high-speed rail system.

Most of us might be a little skittish about spending money if we were
teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. But the beauty of politics is that it

Gun-Control Ignorance
How many times do the same arguments need to be refuted?
By Thomas Sowell
Must every tragic mass shooting bring out the shrill ignorance of “gun
control” advocates?
The key fallacy of so-called gun-control laws is that such laws do not in
fact control guns. They simply disarm law-abiding citizens, while people
bent on violence find firearms readily available.
If gun-control zealots had any respect for facts, they would have discovered

For about 40 years, the Supreme Court has been evading the 14th Amendment's
provision of "equal protection" of the law for all, in order to let
government-imposed group preferences and quotas continue, under the name of
"affirmative action."
Equal rights under the law have been made to vanish by saying the magic word
"diversity," whose sweeping benefits simply are assumed and proclaimed
endlessly, rather than demonstrated.

肯定性行动(Affirmative Action)的内在缺陷
原创: 戈壁老王 舍路新知 2018-11-01
这篇文章是为了回应”低头弄鱼“同学几天前发表在<美国华人>公众号上的一片文章《
我家孩子也被哈佛拒了,但我仍然捍卫AA》。读完之后我提交了一段留言,但不知何故
始终没有出现在留言区。这给了我一些激励让我在留言的基础上详细扩展成这篇文章作
为回应。真理越辩越明,相信读者们自然有自己的判断。

minimum wage这种问题就看出来民主党里没有懂经济的,斯坦福Hoover有个经济学家Dr
. Thomas Sowell有次跟DOL的左逼轮子辩论minimum wage的问题,就像跟非礼猫辩论一
样你说A他说B你也说B他又说C,Sowell最后懒得说了,总结了一句"the real minimum
wage is zero",然后全场一片掌声。

Regarding your point 7: Check out Thomas Sowell's work, such as Affirmative
Action Around the World.
Himself an African American, Thomas Sowell shrewdly pointed out that AA is "
one of the few policies that can be said to harm virtually every group in a
different way … Obviously, whites and Asians lose out when you have
preferential admission for black students or Hispanic students—but blacks
and Hispanics lose out because what typically happens is the students who

近日,中国多地发生奶农“倒牛奶”事件,许多人由此联想到中学教科书中提到的“资本家宁愿将牛奶倒掉也不分给穷人”。事实上,发生在20世纪30年代美国大萧条时期的一系列倒奶事件,可能和教科书描述的、和你想象的都不太一样。
1929年大萧条重创美国农业,具体到奶牛养殖,大萧条头5年,全美最大的产奶州威斯康星州牛奶零售价由4.79美元降到3.48美元,奶农在零售价中收益占比由46%降到30.5%;纽约州情况也类似
和其他繁荣的行业所不同,在1929年大萧条开始之前,美国农业就已经经历了长达10年的由农产品过剩等原因导致的衰退。而1929年开始的大萧条进一步 重创了美国农业,从1929年到1932年,农产品出售价格下降了近50%,农民需要购买的日常消费品价格却只下降了32%左右。
技术进步提高了全美的产奶能力,在1929年,美国共生产了110.52亿美国加仑(US gallons)牛奶,威斯康星州、明尼苏达州、纽约州是美国当时最大的三个产奶州,牛奶产量分别为12亿、8.25亿、8亿美国加仑,它们受大萧条影响最大。
根据美国商务部下属网站census.gov的数据,在1929年,威斯康星州63%的土... 阅读全帖

老毛213的发动大跃进人民公社的时候,
最先对此表示不支持的是乌克兰矿工赫鲁晓夫,
因为他知道苏联历史上已经犯过这个错误了.
但是很二的老毛一定要继续犯二.
One of the most important reasons for studying history is that virtually
every stupid idea that is in vogue today has been tried before and proved
disastrous before, time and again. — Thomas Sowell

投资界目前对中国经济增长的预测正处于热议之中。高盛以及诸如弗兰克·霍姆斯(
Frank Holmes)、拉里·埃德尔森(Larry Edelson)等广受欢迎的投资顾问,对中国
经济持乐观看法。《巴伦周刊》(Barron's)最近发表了由乔纳森·莱恩(Jonathan
Laing)撰写的《流星》(Falling Star)一文,文章对中国经济提出了极其悲观的看
法,其中提到了诸如对冲基金经理吉姆·查诺斯(Jim Chanos)等看空中国者的诸多观
点。
谁是正确的?中国经济接下来会如何?是持续繁荣还是毁灭性崩溃?这些问题的答案非
常重要,因为近年来中国已在全球经济中崛起,其对全球贸易、投资、资金流向及地缘
政治都具有诸多深远的影响。我不想冒险对未来进行猜测... 阅读全帖
