The Vision of The Anointed - Thomas Sowell

Member Monday Exclusive

The Vision of the Anointed was written in 1995 by Thomas Sowell, the genius and modern father of Conservatism. It’s subtitle explains itself concisely; “Self Congratulation as a basis for Social Policy.”

After reading this book twice, I can say this is an essential read for anyone trying to understand the pervasive methods that the elite class use to get their way.

Sowell opens with an explanation of the terms we see in the title. The ‘Anointed’ are the elite class, that believe themselves entitled by their status to perform task of reshaping society in their perception of good which is the ‘Vision’.
