"The old adage about giving a man a fish versus teaching him how to fish has been updated by a reader: Give a man a fish and he will ask for tartar sauce and French fries! Moreover, some politician who wants his vote will declare all these things to be among his ‘basic rights.’"

One of the wisest men of our times. This one really stood out to me:
quote:
I have never understood why it is ‘greed’ to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else’s money.”

quote:
"One of the sad signs of our times is that we have demonized those who produce, subsidized those who refuse to produce, and canonized those who complain.
I've always like this one.

I'll forever be in debt to that man. He almost single handedly changed how I see how the world works.
I've read tons of his stuff, and the biggest thing I've gotten out of them aren't fact, figures, understanding history and economics better...it's getting better at knowing what questions to ask. It's AMAZING how much bullshite you can slice through by just asking the right questions. The world becomes much, much clearer.
