Editorial Review: Product Description: Frederic Bastiat's arguments against socialism are as valid today as when first published in 1850. 2 cassettes. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Pal mal de toutAn interesting book divded into many short chapters. His writing style reminds me of Diderot. Overall an interesting explanation of economics and cause-and-effect that both literary and financial people will benefit. Rating: - The LawA "must read" for all those dedicated to the rule of law and due process. From these earlier times, Bastiat has made it clear what the law is and what it is not and how it should be applied in a free society.

If you are not a socialist, you should master the simple arguments in this essay and keep them handy for discussions with your socialist friends. If you are a socialist, you should in all intellectual honesty read this book (it can be done in an hour or so) and see if you can answer Bastiat's objection to socialism: that anytime the law is used to organize anything other ...

While this is a presumptous statement, I will stand by it because Bastiat actually dissects all fallacies about Big-Government intervention in the lives and business of private citizens, all in the name of 'helping society'. He goes on to predict the evils that would later convulse worthy nations. His prognosis is as relevant today as it was in his day. This book is also the first place where economics and politics are clearly put in their ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
