Thomas Sowell: "The human race began in poverty, so there is no mysterious explanation as to why some people are poor. The question is, why have some people gotten prosperous, and in particular why have some gotten prosperous to a greater degree than others."

Thomas Sowell dismantles a widespread belief: that poverty is a moral problem whose solution belongs to intellectuals. Humanity, he reminds us, (after the great fall )began in poverty. There’s nothing surprising about that. What truly deserves explanation is why some societies and some individuals managed to create wealth, and why some did so better than others. Much of today’s public debate skips that question entirely and simply assumes that poverty is the default condition of mankind and that wealth is something that has to be “explained” or “justified” — usually as the result of exploitation or some other moral failing.

Thomas Sowell on why it is prosperity, not poverty, that needs explaining: “There’s no explanation needed for poverty—the species began in poverty. What you really need to know is what are the things that enable some countries and some groups within countries to become prosperous.”

🚨 BBC North West Tonight was on MUCH earlier today - here's the (belated) important information as to why, which some have described as "a breathtaking audio/visual experience". Others have called it "a really poor use of time"🚨

Thomas Sowell: “I regard poverty as simply the absence of wealth, so what I look for are the things that cause wealth to occur.” “Everyone is born poor and ignorant. To the extent that people become different, we have to find out what things enable them to become different.”

Why is it that those in retirement age are predominantly voting Liberal, but young people who are looking to live the life they have gotten to and voting conservative ?

Why did humans decide to adopt some animals as pets but treat others as threats? Questions like this are explored in the #UnstoppableUs book series, which includes a key message for kids: the world we live in didn’t have to be the way it is. People made it & people can change it.

"We're going to dump them [on the Falklands]? Good luck with that, with the people that already live on that island, we'll see how they take to it. "There's something poisonous about the way we talk about these people… they are some of the most vulnerable people on God's Earth. "They would have escaped war, they would have escaped torture, and they would have escaped – even if they're not actually refugees and fail in their claim – a degree of poverty that was so severe that, unlike you or I, they chose to get on a boat for a very dangerous journey."

Vishal Bhardwaj recently claimed he can’t even make the “H” of Haider today. But let’s be honest, Haider openly gave space to “Azadi” sloganeering like in this scene, blurred the line on terrorism in the Valley, and dressed secessionist rhetoric up as art. So the question is simple: if some people have a problem with Dhurandhar, why didn’t they have the same problem with Haider?

“Why would I try to tell you to believe something that I have no way of confirming?” -“Diligent” Denizen I think the better question that needs an answer is: Why DID he (and others) tell people to believe something they had *not* confirmed, and now admit they had “no way of confirming”? At some point in the not-so-distant future, the audiences of these people are going to turn on them once they feel/recognize they have been lied to, misled and exploited.

Some people have been saying “why don’t they march peacefully” but they did. For years! How many splinter groups have been and gone? For example here’s an old clip from the Football Lads Alliance - a protest group which formed as a reaction to the Manchester bombing:
