- pomonomo2003: The so-called "Economic Calculation" problem was what convinced me, back in the days of yore, that socialism was economically impossible. That is, there are no true economic decisions under (complete) socialism because there is no economic information without market mechanisms. Thus all economic decisions under socialism are disguised political decisions.

- pomonomo2003: Radical Economic Subjectivism. Hugely influential for me. Bottom Line: macro-economics is impossible. Shh! It's supposed to be a secret!

- pomonomo2003: One of the most intriguing books I ever read. Sciabarra is trying to place Hegelian / Marxist dialectics at the service of libertarian thought. I found this book wildly interesting.

- pomonomo2003: A Great Book. It turns out that both War and Peace are the 'Health of the State'. Right leaning administrations -and/or situations of conflict- increase funding for the military-industrial state; left leaning administrations -or situations without large overseas conflicts- increase funding for everything else. ...The State always wins.

- pomonomo2003: Radosh is not a libertarian. He is, however, very sympathetic to the isolationist cause. Two chapters each on: Charles A. Beard, Oswald Garrison Villard, Robert A. Taft, John T. Flynn, and Lawrence Dennis.

- pomonomo2003: The short-lived dream of a libertarian / new left alliance. Be sure to read the last chapter on the split between libertarians and conservatives at the YAF convention in St.Louis in 1969. Fun.

- pomonomo2003: Legalize all victimless (that is, consensual) crimes. Even though in almost all these cases, individuals are the victims of their own stupidity.

- pomonomo2003: The anarcho-capitalist Rothbard, who ended his career as a paleo-libertarian had at one time been an advocate of a libertarian and new left alliance. I think Rothbard was the libertarian Lenin, who could change policy at a moments notice. Rothbard would've allied himself with anyone he thought could aid in increasing the prospects for liberty. Had he lived much longer he would've eventually left the Paleos for something else.
