 Well, I was hiding from global freezing in Wisconsin and South Africa for the last six weeks and it's very interesting that the road to certain we have kind of different stages to look at in South Africa. Insanity is already even more, I would say, explicit than here and they have wonderful free market foundation. We were talking about high quite a lot and Leon Lou, famous Austrian economist in South Africa, he made a point that it's just a good illustration for Peter's presentation that only governments are so efficient in destroying wealth that even people like Chinese people, Indian people, other people were very, who are extremely productive that they were reduced to extreme poverty, starvation and what not. So we will talk a little bit about Hayek. Hayek, I was on this Glenn Beck program with Stone Woods and Mr. Beck, he was waving this book. Well, I never watched Glenn Beck before because I don't watch television, I'm only subscribing to Netflix and Mr. Beck was waving the book saying, America read this book and sure enough the next day it became number one but I am, I was speaking, I wrote a book recently published about Tea Party movement and I spoke at many Tea Parties and a lot of people would come to me and would say, what the book? But and I said, well, did you like the book? You know, it's a little bit above my head, very difficult. One lady in the place called Sherman, Texas, she even said, I looked through the whole book, there is nothing but Obama and so that's, and so we will talk about Hayek and I gave my students assignment to find as much information about Hayek on the World Wide Web and unfortunately they only found this Hayek and so but I will talk about this one and to be precise. And looking on the World Wide Web also to find out what Hayek, how Hayek is right now popular in the post-communist world, in the world that he created, I mean he helped to create a lot because wrote a certain was really a gateway for many people, for many intellectuals in Eastern Europe and Soviet Union today in China, they publishing wrote a certain in Russia, they just published 11th edition already of the road to serve them. So you can see that that even in Kyrgyz language, which I don't, I don't speak but I can see that you made one easy sin in 1922 was the right and I like that, that how you can pronounce this six, seven letters in a row. Yes, I think that what's the great thing about about the book, the book was also published I think for Glenn Beck should have been waving this this version of the book which is cartoons and which more people would understand, especially in the Tea Party meetings, that planning is extremely important, planning isn't in destroying liberty, that planning, planning especially during war times usually would stay, would stay, if you will look at the history of Western market economies that they emerged from the war way more socialistic and Cold War even solidified that because Cold War was I'm not sure who won Cold War because I'm thinking that maybe not us because fighting Cold War we became more or less looking like the people we were fighting so that's that we were assuming positions of of the people that positions that people were abandoning and the greatest I think the greatest three ideas of Hayek would be that equality of material position only can be achieved through coercion through mass murder through the government with the utilitarian powers then another thing is emergencies, emergencies are used and we'll talk a little bit about that in in in the context of United States today that they are the pretext by which individual liberty goes out of the window and the third one is is very important because many people do not see this connection that fascism is the stage reached after communism has proved an illusion that this is a logical thing that after communism and you can see this exactly the same scenario evolving in many post-communist countries countries like Russia itself like Kazakhstan like Moldova so you can see that this is the because people who already were enslaved became serfs they reproduce the serfdom on and on and on in their political system even if they have a window of freedom in many cases they would close shut down this window so you can see that this this kind of people were today I am very much afraid that we are losing cultural war if not lost it already and the revival is it's very difficult right now to work in academia when I came to the United States then most students were way more conservative than their teachers because most teachers were this holdouts from the hippie generation 1960s and whatnot today we have way more efficient propaganda people in academia so we have we have a lot of students are so royally brainwashed it's sometimes difficult even to begin with with what it is well this is the present fascist well the most the the most kind of would say serious thing which is which is equally applicable to to fascism and socialism is that they would both end in mass murder because of complete complete absence of any stimulus of any any incentives to do anything under that system the only way to to rule to promote central planning to to kind of to organize centralized society you need mass murder and this mass murder was applied and Hayek was warning us about that that that your disciplining is planned if you are fired from your job it's apt to be by a firing squad what used to be an error has now become a crime against the state thus ends the road to serve them so the road to serve them ends with death ends with death so it's a dead end the road to serve them is and sometimes it is almost impossible to make a U-turn in that on that road to serve them that what I think Hayek was warning us about this is from this cartoon version of the book the road to serve them this is the map of them concentration death camps in the Soviet Union and according to statistics anywhere from 43 to 61 million people were murdered during introduction of central planning well I don't care even where is 43 million or 61 both numbers are so staggering both numbers are so beyond human comprehension that we can say that I think that that socialism is an exact opposite of libertarianism exact opposite of classical liberalism and so so socialist of any kind is nothing but the regime I would say of public slavery public slavery when people are being grown collectively by the state so the state owns people people cannot do anything and that's I think was this is just kind of pictures of a real news I think I may be that's the the Stalin this is this is healthcare in Cuba this is an ambulance so Hayek in his in the road to serve them he he wrote that is there a greater tragedy imaginable than that in our endeavor consciously to shape our future in accordance with high ideals we should in fact unwittingly produce the very opposite of what we have been striving and I think that this this sentence is very interesting because Josef Aloys Schumpeter he believed that Hayek was wrong on this because Hayek was thinking that intellectuals love socialism because they're nice and benevolent people and they are trying to promote social justice promote humanism promote all the slogans of communist utopia however Schumpeter in his review of the book he made a point that he believes no that this is a fault faulty kind of assumption that these people are striving for power and they use this ideals in this humanistic slogans to achieve this absolute power and then they will kill in the name so then we kind of can see that that that is exactly what Hayek was thinking that from saintly and single-minded idealist to the fanatic is often but a step and we see the steps are being made in all this in all these countries of former former socialist countries while speaking about us already think there is a good Reagan quip I wish he would do more but not only talk more but but he was a good talker definitely and I think that we we can see that freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction and I'm afraid that this is our generation and this guy is winning yeah we talk we just don't have time to cover it all but I think that I completely agree with Tom that cultural Marxism is the worst kind of enemy that that today classical liberals today's libertarians do face and if anyone would be interested I can email you this presentation so that's well Keynes himself after the Bolshevik Soviet Revolution he wrote to his mother who was a mayor of Cambridge that that the only course open to me is to be violently Bolshevik so Keynes himself was saying that he's he would like to be Bolshevik well he was young maybe he he came to to decided to be half Bolshevik instead of being 100% Bolshevik but this one I think is a bolshevik this one is a Bolshevik and and we have and the most unfortunate thing that we have I would call it kind of bipartisan power but bipartisan party in power and quite recently just cannot refrain from pleasure of showing you this picture yeah well before you know this one is even better this is this is comrade bryzhnev and mass murderer of germany then it's a lot many people do not understand how what kind of in a kind of a bad bad situation we are because now we have statistics became as reliable in the United States as it was in the Soviet Union our statistics became a form of of economic propaganda in the United States and not only socialist but conservatives are making this look this is a this is a projection of heritage foundation that we will have national debt of 12 and a half trillion dollars by the year 2019 now we have 17 and a half already and this is revised no this is yes so this is to the present already so you can see that he he is like a true stakanovite stakanovite was a Stalinist worker who would do 10 outputs per one shift and so you can see that this is a national debt at that time right now it's projected to be 24 trillion dollars by that this is money printing food stamps so you can that's all it's all this is all central planning it's all central planning it's not it's not just by some kind of strange strange spontaneous order we have we have this that cell just because I'm looking my yes so printing money doing all kind of things this shadow government statistics you can see the more kind of true statistics because what I think Mr. Williams is doing who runs this website he's recalculating government numbers on the on by methods which were used before because what they do right now in statistical age in the Bureau of Labor Statistics or anywhere else they for example if they don't like don't like numbers then they change the method they change the method for example they came up with this great idea that core inflation should be kind of discarded because people do not eat they don't drive so the gas prices or or food prices are irrelevant to our consumer price index so get rid of that and that's what what shadow statistics is doing so we have unemployment is going down they're saying however look what is happening declining labor force participation rate so that means that we are destroying already incentives to work look how many people right now are dropping out of labor force and who is staying in labor force there'll be older people age 65 and over this is a fantastic and Bob Higgs is is is telling us why this is happening because people cannot quit this already economics serve them that they're in Geysers hero must work till they drop then we have we have society which is right now I think being undermined by by policy of racial divide this is a minimum wage just everything that's well Walter Williams making a very good point that that up to 1954 up to beginning of the welfare state society that blacks were doing better employment wise than they were more active in labor force had had lower unemployment than than whites and that's what we will see I think in 20 in 2016 and that's a this is a bumper sticker I'm doing seminars in Washington DC every Tuesday trying to get some of my taxes back from federal government that federal government they have they have plenty of this on the streets you can see that many cars already like that and that's the people would would do that so this is them and you can another kind of I would say that many people in Washington already this is a this is a bridge Trotsky is a bridge between neocons neocons and outright outright socialist dictators so that's and we will see more and more and more of that because he is internationally so cold and this just because I'm looking that I don't have much time that's just yes but this is very sad I was traveling recently to also to the island of Mauritius Mauritius not many people even know where it is Mauritius was number 42 in the index of economic freedom not right now it's number six United States is number 18 when I came to the United States United States was number two now we're number 18 so this is there there's Baltic states are doing better than United States in economic freedom and why I think that Mao Zedong was absolutely right everything on the heaven is another cause the situation is excellent for us and that's exactly the the linear slogan also the worst the better before the revolution right so I'm what I'm yeah I can send you this this this presentation if you would like to and also I was late today because I was teaching a evening class yesterday so I couldn't be on the panel with books with books but we just published a book together with romance casque he was he's a major of the United States Army on Tea Party Tea Party explains so this book you can get on Amazon or in my house and it's I think it's the senior year I'm afraid you know what I was not thinking
