Ludwig von Mises
“The people of the United States are more prosperous…because their government embarked later than other governments…upon the policy of obstructing business”
Ludwig von Mises, The Anti-capitalistic Mentality

Milton Friedman
“Government has three primary functions. It should provide for military defense of the nation. It should enforce contracts between individuals. It should protect citizens from crimes against themselves or their property. When government-- in pursuit of good intentions tries to rearrange the economy, legislate morality, or help special interests, the cost come in inefficiency, lack of motivation, and loss of freedom. Government should be a referee, not an active player.”
Milton Friedman

George Orwell
“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.”
George Orwell, 1984

Ludwig von Mises
“He who is unfit to serve his fellow citizens wants to rule them.”
Ludwig von Mises, Bureaucracy

Milton Friedman
“Governments never learn. Only people learn.”
Milton Friedman
