I learned more from this book about how the economy works than from ANY of my economics classes on my way to an MBA. Believe it.

Interested in learning? I highly recommend the following books:

Economics in One Lesson, by Henry Hazlitt

What Has Government Done to our Money?, by Murray Rothbard

Meltdown: A Free Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed, by Tom Woods

End the Fed, by Ron Paul

How an Economy Grows and Why it Crashes, by Peter Schiff

Each of these does an excellent job of explaining economic principles and common fallacies.

Knowledge is power. Read thoughtfully and prosper. Smile, it's good for you. :)

+ That which is Seen and That Which is Not Seen by Frederic Bastiat. It is the shortest, but all of his works are worth a read.

I highly recomend Thomas sowell Basic economics, if you aren't already read it :)

Wait, how do you know anarchy wouldn't work? Because it failed on a very small scale the few times it was tried (and half-assed at that)? Without an open, free market it would be doomed to failure sure, but on a wide scale, who knows? Theoretically, it could work. But whether anarcho-capitalism would work in fact or not is neither here nor there; it would help tremendously if the masses would even just start entertaining such thoughts.

Thank you very much. I'm already reading his other book, Crash Proof 2.0 and it's very easy ro read also. The next on my list will his new book, The Real Crash and Henry Hazlitt's Economics in One Lesson.

I'm on chapter 5 and so far it is a really easy read, I didn't know anything about economics before reading the book, so I would definitely recommend it, it is written for anybody to be able to read and understand.
