“Where liberty is, there is my country.”
Benjamin Franklin
“The surest way for a poor nation to stay poor is to harass, hobble, and straitjacket private enterprise or to discourage or destroy it by subsidized government competition, oppressive taxation, or outright expropriation.”
Henry Hazlitt
“Entrepreneurial capitalism takes more people out of poverty than aid.”
Bono
“Capitalism needs neither propaganda nor apostles. Its achievements speak for themselves. Capitalism delivers the goods.”
Ludwig von Mises
Bono? Fuck that elitist hypocritical Vatican boy.
Most of those quotes are probably illegal in Europe.
Probably the only quote from Bono that he gets right. Sad that he has NO CLUE as to what he is actually talking about. Sad that all of these celebrity folks have never bothered to read Hazlitt, Mises, Rothbard, Hoppe, or any of the other greats from the “Austrian school” of economics, as they have so many millions of people hanging on their every word. Just image all the good they could do if they opened their mouth and something other than bullshit and Progressive propaganda came out.
