Good Advice From Tom Woods

Writes Tom Woods:

“I am in a debate on Facebook, and I need some help…”

I get this kind of plea in my inbox all the time…. Just today I received a note from a perfectly nice guy who has gotten himself in over his head in a debate with a Marxist on the state and the market. He sent me a lengthy excerpt from the Marxist’s response. He would like me to get him out of this.

Here, instead, is my advice. In the time it takes to carry on a Facebook debate, you could be reading. You could be making yourself a formidable debater one or two years from now. Instead of asking me to hand you a fish, you can be learning to fish.

Read it all.
