From Rick Santelli to the Government: Stop Spending, Stop Spending, Stop Spending!!

and to Steve Liesman, "Go read some Austrian economist instead of the funny pages."

From yesterday's program. Fast-forward 8 minutes or so for the good part...

For those of you who are still not aware of Austrian Economics, here are two sites you can visit and start learning:

Ludwig von Mises Institute

Lewrockwell.com

At von Mises Institute site, you can download papers and even books by the leading Austrian economists, past and present (Ludwig von Mises, Murray Rothbard, and yes, Friedrich Hayek, among others), for free. (Or you can buy the books from them.)

Lewrockwell.com has a daily list of articles written with (true) libertarian perspective - "anti-state, anti-war, pro-market" as the site proclaims. I would say "pro-productive class" - savers, workers, entrepreneurs who want to mind their own business in peace. Pro-'small people'.

This blog has the links to both sites on the left column, under "Market/Economic News, Analysis, Commentary".
