Quotes

  • Government cannot make trade more fair by making it less free.
  • “Fair trade” is a moral delusion that could be leading to an economic catastrophe.
  • The U.S. government has created a trade lynch law that can convict foreign companies almost regardless of how they operate.
  • It should not be a federal crime to charge low prices to American consumers.
  • A law is simply a reflection of the momentary perception of self-interest by a majority of a legislative body.
  • Paternalism is a desperate gamble that lying politicians will honestly care for those who fall under their power.
