Thomas Sowell Quotes -- Read them and weep Liberals.
• "Since this is an era when many people are concerned about 'fairness' and 'social justice,' what is your 'fair share' of what someone else has worked for?"
• "We seem to be moving steadily in the direction of a society where no one is responsible for what he himself did, but we are all responsible for what somebody else did, either in the present or in the past."
• "One of the consequences of such notions as ‘entitlements’ is that people who have contributed nothing to society feel that society owes them something, apparently just for being nice enough to grace us with their presence."
• "Weighing benefits against costs is the way most people make decisions — and the way most businesses make decisions, if they want to stay in business. Only in government is any benefit, however small, considered to be worth any cost, however large."
• “What do you call it when someone steals someone else's money secretly? Theft. What do you call it when someone takes someone else's money openly by force? Robbery. What do you call it when a politician takes someone else's money in taxes and gives it to someone who is more likely to vote for him? Social Justice.
The Knox v. SEIU Decision was not based on "outside money" going into political campaigns. Rather, it was based on non-members in a bargaining unit, and the issue was a special dues increase that was levied to meet expenses that were not disclosed when the amount of the regular assessmant was set.
On the whole, this decision by the high court further impacts workers' activity to speak as a group.
