Paul Poirot, RIP, by Gary North, 21 Feb 2006 "Poirot's legacy is a generation of people who learned the basics of free market economics from The Freeman. A few of those articles are still on the web ... Poirot in each issue authorized their reprinting, just so long as The Freeman was mentioned. Today, we call this strategy 'viral marketing.' Poirot understood it early." |
The Primacy of Freedom, by Brian Summers, The Freeman: Ideas on Liberty, Feb 1988 "... in most cases, people never have been told the basic precepts of the freedom philosophy. For more than a generation, the task of explaining these precepts has fallen largely on the shoulders of Paul Poirot, his colleagues at The Foundation for Economic Education, and the authors and speakers who work with this Foundation." |
