None in college, I read Wealth of Nations and The Prince in high school. My entire foreign relations graduate class was an eye opening experience though.

Democracy in America has to be on this list. After that it was largely political philosophy that influenced me. Locke (more his essays such as An Essay Concerning Human Understanding than any particular book) and Hume A Treatise of Human Nature were prominent for me. Also Aristotle helped form by fundamental view of democracy and the alternatives.
But the most influential book of all for me was Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Nietzsche. He and Heidegger impacted by thinking more than any two writers.

Sorry, I was not clear enough, I was agreeing with you about that one.
You should definitely read some Nietzsche. Even if you do not agree, he will make you think quite a bit.

Do you know Adam Smith is not a capitalist, and if argued that he is, he's certainly not the capitalist most think he is.

I was a default cultural Leftist when I got a hold of this book.
My worldview changed in just a few weeks.
