The Bastiat Solution, by Sheldon Richman, 29 Aug 2008 Related Topic: Politics Analyzes segments of Bastiat's The Law as an antidote for the demagoguery of the election season "The election season will subject us to a nonstop barrage of platitudes ... Luckily, we have Bastiat to turn to for solace. But even more important, we have Bastiat's implicit strategic advice. Our family, friends, and neighbors would never think to threaten force to get their way because they know it is wrong. We just need to show them that the rules are the same for politicians." |
The Bright Side of War, by Sheldon Richman, 24 May 2004 Related Topics: War, Broken Window Fallacy "... the idea that war creates prosperity is emphatically not true. ... The real cost of the war is the wealth we are compelled to forgo. ... Even truly defensive wars entail destruction, not production." |
Would-Be Rulers without Clothes, by Sheldon Richman, Freedom Daily, May 2008 Related Topics: Politics, Hillary Rodham Clinton, United States Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson, John Locke Examines Hillary Clinton's assertion about "wanting" a universal health care plan "The rights of the whole can't be greater than the sum of the rights of its parts. Frédéric Bastiat wrote in The Law, '...since an individual cannot lawfully use force against the person, liberty, or property of another individual, then the common force -- for the same reason -- cannot lawfully be used to destroy the person, liberty, or property of individuals or groups.'" |

Freedom in Transactions, 1848 Related Topics: The Free Market, Government Contrasts how freedom of exchange causes vast numbers of provisions to arrive in Paris on a daily basis with what would happen if government were to direct these transactions "... eighty departments have been labouring today, without concert, without any mutual understanding, for the provisioning of Paris. How does each succeeding day bring what is wanted, nothing more, nothing less, to so gigantic a market? What, then, is the ingenious and secret power which governs the astonishing regularity of movements so complicated ... That power is an absolute principle, the principle of freedom in transactions." |
