  • For every public job created by [a] bridge project a private job has been destroyed somewhere else. We can see the men employed on the bridge. We can watch them at work...But there are other things that we do not see, because, alas, they have never been permitted to come into existence.  Henry Hazlitt

  • Much of the social history of the Western world, over the past three decades, has been a history of replacing what worked with what sounded good.  Thomas Sowell

  • Everything's fine today, that is our illusion.  Voltaire
