Liberty Is Not Complicated

Rick Lowe

I just picked up a copy of Ron Paul's new book, Liberty Defined.

David Gordon reviews it here… for Mises.org and says as Ron Paul "puts the point with characteristic force":

For more than 100 years, the dominant views that have influenced our politicians have undermined the principles of personal liberty and private property. The tragedy is these bad policies have had strong bipartisan support. There has been no real opposition to the steady increase in the size and scope of government. Democrats are largely and openly for government expansion, and if we were to judge the Republicans by their actions and not their rhetoric, we would come to much the same conclusion about them. (p. 20)

I'm looking forward to reading the 50 essays included here.
