The Vision Of The Anointed by Thomas Sowell

Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy

This thought-provoking work critiques the prevailing attitudes and policies of self-proclaimed elites who believe they possess superior insight into societal issues. It argues that these "anointed" individuals often impose their visions on society without sufficient evidence or consideration of the consequences, leading to misguided policies that fail to address the real problems. Through a series of case studies and analyses, the book challenges the assumptions and motivations of these influential figures, advocating for a more empirical and pragmatic approach to social policy.
