Today's Thought

 

"What is love? In love, the currency is virtue. You love people not for what you do for them or what they do for you. You love them for the values, their virtues which they have achieved in their own character. You don’t love causelessly." 

                    - Ayn Rand

Sailing by the Ash Breeze

by Jason Riddle

 

Although we do not have a choice about the wind’s direction, we can control how we react. Instead of worrying about the things you can’t control, try focusing on the things you can.

Website of the Week

 

The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order.  It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be. 

 

 

 

This Week's Reading Recommendation

 

Lessons for the Young Economist - Robert Murphy (2010) We are beyond mere excitement about Lessons for the Young Economist. It is easily the best introduction to economics for the young reader because it covers both pure economic theory and also how markets work (the domain of most introductory books). It achieves a great balance between plain old economics and that aspect of economic thought that is considered particularly Austrian. Therefore, it prepares the student for both conventional economic studies in the future and provides the logical rigor and policy clarity that only the Austrian School perspective can offer. (Read More)
