My interest in political philosophy was rather casual until I met Hayek.

Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon.

Education spending will be most effective if it relies on parental choice & private initiative -- the building blocks of success throughout our society.

When a man spends his own money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about how much he spends and how he spends it. When a man spends his own money to buy something for someone else, he is still very careful about how much he spends, but somewhat less what he spends it on. When a man spends someone else's money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about what he buys, but doesn't care at all how much he spends. And when a man spends someone else's money on someone else, he does't care how much he spends or what he spends it on. And that's government for you.

To the free man, the country is the collection of individuals who compose it, not something over and above them.

You could not possibly maintain the current level of government taxation without the taxes being hidden, and they are hidden in two very different ways. They are hidden through withholding, but they are also hidden by being imposed on business, supposedly on business, when really, of course, business can't pay taxes, only people can pay taxes.

Never try to walk across a river just because it has an average depth of four feet.
