Economics, Finance and Politics Through The Prism of Classical Liberalism

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.
Thomas Jefferson
Every generation needs a new revolution.
Thomas Jefferson

The man with the best job in the country is the vice-president. All he has to do is get up every morning and say, "How is the president?"
Will Rogers
The airheads of Congress will keep their own plush healthcare plan - it's the rest of us guinea pigs who will be thrown to the wolves.
Camille Paglia

Insolvency — I.O.U.S.A and The Crash Course

By Monty Pelerin, on November 21st, 2009

Here is a link to the film I.O.U.S.A. If you want a quick understanding to why the country is insolvent, this is a good view. A similar source is Chris Martenson’s Crash Course. Both of these videos should be required viewing for every man, woman and child in this country. If viewed, few incumbents would win re-election.

Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies, The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C.S. Lewis
An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination.
Voltaire
It will be found an unjust and unwise jealousy to deprive a man of his natural liberty upon the supposition he may abuse it.
George Washington
If Stupidity got us into this mess, then why can't it get us out?
Will Rogers
I have a scheme for stopping war. It's this - no nation is allowed to enter a war till they have paid for the last one.
Will Rogers
