Dr. Block, thank you. Because of you and men like you at Mises, I have clear, crisp arguments for some of my statist (well intentioned) g kids and some of my liberal (well off and well intentioned) friends.
Your examples are excellent especially when you tear down their straw dog arguments.
Because you know the topic so well , you Can unclutter the rejoinder, void of technical jargon .Then I can use it and sound , oh so wise.
Sincerely, Greg Coleman, CFA
