  • "Market Socialism" and Mises?

    Does the economic calculation problem apply to so-called "market socialism"?

  • The Soviet Gold Standard

    From 1917-1920, the supply of money increased 25 times. This led to hyperinflation and so one of the most significant reforms of the NEP was the advent of the gold ruble. It was a reform that apparently provided the solution to the currency crisis. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperinflation_in_early_Soviet_Russia...

  • Milton Friedman and his lectures

    They say, that the era that Friedman visited Chile, gave lectures about capitalism and free market in Communist countries, as well. I wonder, how can a Communist goverment which propagandizes its citizens against Capitalism, give permission to someone to talk freely about Capitalism and Free Market?

  • Redestributing the Wealth

    Is it fair for George Soros to enjoy the riches of this country while others struggle with putting food on their table? Is it fair for George Clooney to spend long vacations in Italy while a young honor student dies during a Chicago high-school riot? Well, whenever I'd ask these kind of questions...

  • The United States Versus North Korea

    Actually I'm not sure we would win. Not that we don't outgun them, but that place is a lot like Afghanistan. Very mountainous and overflowing with patriotic fervor. I won't call them fanatics because they have good reasons for acting the way they do based on the information they have. But...

  • The Three Dirty Words

    The late George Carlin had seven dirty words. Seven words that you weren’t allowed to say on TV. The list is probably larger now, but you can also say them on TV. At least I hear them on TV regularly. If you are intersted in what they are you can look here . A dirty word is a strange thing. In...

  • The Religious Right and the Republican Revolution

    Since the election of Ronald Reagan as President in 1980 the United States has seen a monumental shift of political power. Prior to this the South had been a Democratic stronghold as a result of the Civil War. Even a hundred years after, it had not been forgotten that Lincoln, a Republican, had invaded...

  • The Return of Feudalism

    They say things come to you in the shower. That doesn’t usually happen with me. More often, during the act of climbing into bed. Then I have to get up and write the idea down, for experience has taught me if I don’t write it down, no matter how Earth-shattering the thought, it will be gone...
