I have read a bit of Sowell, bought a collection of his work for my boss, whom I argue with all the time. But when it comes down to it people who read Sowell/Free to Choose/Capitalism and Freedom, when trump imposes tariffs on South Korean Washers to protect the corporate managers at Whirlpool they are not classical liberals, they don't even support free trade.

they are just worshippers of the state capitalist system, ideological managers keeping the party line "top of mind"



Strange, it seems like you're implying that if I agree with one person's position, I have to agree with every position that person supports.

Considering how frequently politicians change positions, that would make hypocrites of us all. Instead, I'll support Trump for the things he does well, and I'll disagree with the things he doesn't, same as I would for anyone else.
