Quote Of The Week

From Samizdata:

To pursue a so-called Third Way is foolish. We had our experience with this in the 1960s when we looked for a socialism with a human face. It did not work, and we must be explicit that we are not aiming for a more efficient version of a system that has failed.

- Vaclav Klaus

    Quite right.

    An efficient government is the last thing any patriot should want.

    Little to no government is the goal.

    Capitalism and socialism are two distinct patterns of social organization. Private control of the means of production and public control are contradictory notions and not merely contrary notions. There is no such thing as a mixed economy, a system that would stand midway between capitalism and socialism.--Ludwig von Mises
