Thomas Sowell is such a hack.  I'm not saying he can't ever make a good point but he's not anyone I respect.  About a month ago he had a column blaming the housing crisis on the CRA which is not only wrong but really old news -- that allegation was all over the internet many months ago, and he added absolutely nothing to the discussion. 

The failure of government in this was the REMOVAL of restrictions, not the addition of them.  Jackson's recent post is one I believe I can agree with. 

May be true.  That is why it is not very good to rely on one source all the time.  I was just happening to be reading one of his articles that I used in the last post.

Anyway, I think we have said everything there is to say on the subject.  Always re-assuring to find people that are well informed out there, even if their views differ from my own.  Too often I find run into people whose views, whether they agree with mine or not, are formed from blissful ignorance.
