What a great little book. Every elected official should be forced to read this! -what the hell we can't even get those crooks to read the US constitution.

Read this book, after that you will understand, if you do not understand nothing can be said to you that will allow you to get it.

This book is a classic written in 1850. Bastiat, a Frenchman, explained the fundamentals of the law and economics in a simple yet accurate and timeless fashion. This is a book that persuades by employing reason and a direct relationship to the real world we all experience. Bastiat demonstrates that government is compulsion and that there are costs and consequences to the employment of compulsion...whether you see or look for them or not. Everyone should read this short yet brilliant description of the market, free people producing and exchanging, in action. This book will cause you to want to read all of Bastiat's work.
