Thomas Sowell, Charles Krauthammer, and Walter Williams are my favorite opinion columnists so I would have found this column by Sowell sooner or later but I credit Tom O'Halloran (@TPO_Hisself) and Christopher Gadsden (@AZGadsden) for making a link to this column available to me before I found it myself.

When I compare Sowell's thoughts with my own earlier this week about rule by unelected bureaucrats, I can state that I am proud to be able to echo some of the thoughts of an opinion writer like Sowell whom I hold in such high regard.

The column by Thomas Sowell illustrates precisely why there is so much concern today across our nation by so many people like me who see the nation that I grew up in being dismantled before our eyes by people who obviously know what they are doing despite their oath to preserve, protect and defend our nation. Instead they sponsor liberal judges and bureaucrats who are changing our nation by judicial rulings and bureaucratic regulations in ways that Congress would not legislate to convert the US to European-style socialism at home while our nation's defenses are being weakened at home and abroad at a time when threats from Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, and China are growing dramatically.
The saving grace that I try to focus on in this troublesome scenario is an unending faith in the spirit and resourcefulness of the American people which exhibited itself last November but still has a long way to go to secure our nation's future for our children and their children.
