Two good ones from Rothbard

The Mantle of Science by Murray N. Rothbard is a must read for anyone who wants to see the public debate in another perspective. Two catchy quotes:

[N]ext time someone preaches the priority of "public good" over the individual good, we must ask: Who is the "public" in this case?

Obvious answer: Some small but noisy favorite group of the politician speaking.

[I]f B thinks that the "market" is not paying A enough, B is perfectly free to step in and supply the difference. He is not blocked in this effort by some monster named "market."

Despite this, the Left usually wants the State for force the average man to pay for its demands. Immoral at best.
