Find Self Acceptance

!: Find Self Acceptance

The meaning of self acceptance is to accept our shortcomings as well as our accomplishments. We all have faults and successful moments in our lives. Getting through life happily and peacefully requires us to understand the balance of positive and negative. We have hard times as well as easy times. We experience ups and downs. Evolve to be a better person than you are today and accept the path you're creating.

Forgiving
Don't be so hard on yourself. Take the opportunities of mistakes as fuel and knowledge towards the successful outcome. A mistake allows you to eliminate one possibility that doesn't work. Great! Now you're closer to your goal!

Aspire
Self acceptance shouldn't be an excuse to avoid growing. On the contrary, you accept the bumps in the road as well as certain aspects of your personality as you're developing towards a better you.

Flexible
The more rigid you are, the less you'll be open to developing and growing as a person. Think of bamboo as it bends across the wind without breaking. If it were rigid and stiff, it would break in two. The flexibility allows it to flow effortlessly through the wind as it stays intact.

Remain Positive
Each situation has more than one side. Actually, it usually has many points of view. A friend of mine has slight stuttering that most people don't detect it including me. During counseling as a young boy, he was taught to tell people of his condition rather than hiding it. That way he's less self conscious when speaking and dealing with people because of a fear he may stutter. His friend is a speech pathologist and helps others with their stuttering. The interesting thing is that his friend has an obvious stutter. His handicap didn't keep him from moving forward in life. He took it to his advantage to help others.

Keep Your Power
Our images of ourselves are created based on what others have told us about ourselves or comparisons we make against others. You'll inevitably come across others who will insult you or attempt to hurt you. Allowing their comments to have an effect on you is giving them power. It takes practice, but it's certainly possibly to shrug off the comments of others without personalizing them.

Instead, compare yourself to yourself. Are you a stronger, wiser, healthier, more loving person today than you were a year ago? Don't compete with anybody else. Their journey in life is much different than yours. Focus on growing and developing yourself. Without having the typical runner's body, I made it a goal of mine to complete the LA Marathon in 2003. I accepted my body structure as it was, and trained none the less to meet my goals.

Personal development is a continuous process so accept yourself along the way.

!: Glenn Beck -6/8/2010- The Road to Serfdom Part 4

It was the year 1945. The bombs had stopped falling in Eastern Europe. The Allied forces had won, and World War II was over. But another, perhaps even more important war, was just beginning. Europe was decimated both politically and structurally and America had just come off a Great Depression. The question that loomed largest over many countries around the entire globe: What do we do from here? The eventual deciding factor in the 'war after the war' came from a very unlikely source: A little known economist named Friedrich A. Hayek. We are in a similar war today, but if you don't know history, you probably aren't even aware of it.

Hayek's 'The Road to Serfdom' in Five Minutes

!: Hayek's 'The Road to Serfdom' in Five Minutes

revver.com In the 1940s, Look Magazine made a comic strip of Hayek's classic book 'The Road to Serfdom'. Hayek went on to win the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1974. en.wikipedia.org Hayek's central thesis is that all forms of collectivism lead logically and inevitably to tyranny, and he used the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany as examples of countries which had gone down "the road to serfdom" and reached tyranny. Hayek argued that within a centrally planned economic system, the distribution and allocation of all resources and goods would devolve onto a small group, which would be incapable of processing all the information pertinent to the appropriate distribution of the resources and goods at the central planners' disposal. Disagreement about the practical implementation of any economic plan combined with the inadequacy of the central planners' resource management would invariably necessitate coercion in order for anything to be achieved. Hayek further argued that the failure of central planning would be perceived by the public as an absence of sufficient power by the state to implement an otherwise good idea. Such a perception would lead the public to vote more power to the state, and would assist the rise to power of a "strong man" perceived to be capable of "getting the job done". After these developments Hayek argued that a country would be ineluctably driven into outright totalitarianism. For Hayek "the road to serfdom" inadvertently set upon by central planning, with ...

The New Road to Serfdom: A Letter of Warning to America (Playaway Adult Nonfiction)

A prominent British conservative warns Americans to stop President Obama from leading their country down the path to European-style socialism.

In March 2009, British conservative Daniel Hannan became a celebrity overnight when he assailed prime minister Gordon Brown on the floor of the European Parliament. The YouTube clip went viral, leading to whirlwind appearances on FOX News and other conservative media outlets. A thoughtful and articulate spokesman for conservative ideas, Hannan is better versed in America's traditions and founding documents than many Americans are. In The New Road to Serfdom, Hannan argues forcefully and passionately that Americans must not allow Barack Obama to take them down the road to European Union–style social democracy. He pleads with Americans not to abandon the founding principles that have made their country a beacon of liberty for the rest of the world.

The Power of Media: Russian Perspective

!: The Power of Media: Russian Perspective

Journalism, as it is often said, is the 'fourth branch of power', along with legislative, executive and judiciary, not any less mighty than those three, even if not legally endorsed in the Russian constitution. It is the power of symbolism, and it cannot be escaped, but can only "used" to bring truth, or "abused" to bring propaganda. The French sociologist Pierre Bourdier claims, that it is the opportunity to create reality with the help of words: we are approaching the time, when the social universe is described and prescribed by mass media. One cannot but agree with this view.

It is common knowledge that political parties in a country exist owing to the replication of their trappings and slogans in mass media, rather than to their strong organizations. Journalists sometimes complain that they have no real levers to affect the public opinion. Quite the opposite. Elvin Toffler, USA mass media analyst, correctly observes that new communication systems or new methods of using the old systems serve to maintain, challenge or even overthrow the government power. The above-mentioned Pierre Bourdier holds, that jounalists, led by their prejudices, values, individual perception, subconscious expectations (and sometimes conscious detrimental intentions - H. Sh.), can create the effect of reality and actually change the existing reality. This effect may have disastrous consequences.

Russia has sustained three revolutions. The latest of them, the late 1980s -1990s 'perestroika', was virtually instigated by mass media. It was they which created the notorious 'effect of reality' and changed the existing reality. The disastrous consequences of it are on hand: the post-revolutionaty trauma, affecting the public morale in the first place is still here to stay. But for nearly 17 years the mass media in Russia have been archly convincing the public that the things generally go right, and the fact that the consequences of the disintegration of the Soviet Union are disastrous may be accounted for the 'communist totalitarian regime'. Now some of them who acclaimed the 'orange scenario' in Ukraine are calling for the fourth revolution.

When we hear the discussions on the information policy of the contemporary Russian government, we are struck by the diametrical opposition of views. Some think that the mass media in Russia are 'gripped in a vice' of numerous interdictions imposed by the government. Others lament that the information policy is no more than a catchword, and the journalists enjoy absolute license. It is noteworthy that both parties understand the information policy as a kind of government's prohibitive encroachment on the mass media. But this view is definitely oversimplifying the complex phenomenon.

In fact the very essence of information processes suggests the governmental monitoring of media. The mass media are not a gigantic factory for creating information, but no more and no less than a means of a system's observation of its processes. When these observations take place the interference with the purpose of improving the situation can only be cautious, expert, intelligent and really needful. The media should be aware of the fact that the system's self-observation demands accurate registration of its processes and does not permit of anarchy of views.

The information policy introduced by the present Russian government is based on the principle of a free choice of information consumption. It prescribes that the mass media should produce a considerably full, unobtrusive and unbiased information flow, letting an individual and the community draw their conclusions, make their well-grounded and competent choices. It rests on the trust in journalists' expertise. And, as was said at the beginning, real professionals should know what can and what cannot be said and shown.

Today the freedom of speech in Russia has taken the form of a variegated sea of periodicals. Their often biased, eclectic or untrustworthy presentation of subjects is not what is needed in order to foster respect for the nation, compliance with its interests, culture and ethics in providing information. One cannot but admit that the media are a long way from this ideal.

The mass media which came out victorious in the 1990s revolution in Russia are still called 'new', although many of them are old brands with a new content. Their ethos since this revolution has been to impose their ideas on the public, to inculcate their world outlook and their approach. This ineradicable desire to monitor the 'inert' public mind has frequently prevailed over the journalists' moral code to consult the interests of the nation. Their chief arguments are: who knows the people's opinion? even sociologists cannot give veritable data about it! And then... the people are really backward: they do not see their interests, they should be prompted and directed.

All right, be the leading light. But it is impermissible to disregard public opinion tested by the acknowledged methods, like a referendum or a representative survey.

A glaring disregard of public opinion was the reaction of mass media to the All-Russia Referendum of March 17 1991, at which people, practically one and all, declared that they wanted to retain the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. What was the media response to this result? An angry torrent of abuse of the stuck-in-the-mud 'sovok' (Soviet citizen) and the fiery propaganda of the disintegration of the USSR. With every strength of their gift they convinced the people that the USSR is a complete nonentity, which might be destroyed and never repented of. There is nothing valuable in that country: its industry, education, science, the mode of life - all should be eradicated and built anew. And the biggest of all evils is the Government - let the public authority be damned, let individualism and all-in privatization be blessed...

Another example of the media slighting the people's opinion is taken from the recent past. It regards the national anthem of Russia. The representative survey showed that the population of Russia supported the anthem with the old Soviet anthem music and new words. So what was the media's response to that? A volley of irony, sarcasm and hatred, which continues reverberating in the media in the form of indignant remarks, even though the anthem was legitimately adopted by the Parliament.

Since the power of media is symbolic, journalists should know the various functions of symbols, one of which is to relieve the dynamism of the world development. Symbols also help to fasten the uniting ties in a society after the anarchic pseudo-democratic license. Therefore it was only natural for the public authority to adopt the symbols recognized by the people, rather than the ones artificially constructed by a bunch of people opposing the national mentality.

It should be noted that the present pro-western radical mass media understand the crisis of their incompatibility with the public way of thinking and realize the lack of sympathy for them. They have abandoned the idea of direct and massive information attack and begun the cautious inculcation of ideas by more sophisticated technologies. Proceeding from the sociological data, that an idea assimilated by 20 per cent of the population does not any longer require intensive information support, but begins to live its own life and proliferate, they sporadically, yet systematically launch the ideas of the unqualified rightness of the West, the USA, of the advance of Putin's dictatorship in Russia; inspire aversion to the union with 'undemocratic' Byelorussia (the Byelorussian President Alexander Lukachenko having become the virtual butt for the media), etc.

On the other hand, the media gloss over the glaring truth about the terrorist war against Russia on the Chechen territory. Even after the horrible events in Beslan on September 1-3 2004, when more than 4,000 children and teachers were held hostage and 330 people perished, the mass media, striving to present the situation in all the 'pluralism of opinions', accentuate those of them which are accusatory of the Russian public authority. For ten years the mass media have persistently represented the people's sentiment in Russia as opposed to the war in Chechnya. All this despite the data that most people, both Russian and Chechen, stand for the State's victory in this conflict. Our peoples' national consciousness is very sensitive to this issue, but as usual the central mass media have ignored the public opinion.

It is understandable, when a foreign channel shows a Chechen saying that the world is on their side - for the full independence of Chechnya from Russia, that Russia is hated by other nations, it is doomed to disintergation and that they are sure of their victory. But when the Russian channels, for the sake of wrongly understood pluralism, highlight an anti-Russian meeting abroad, complete with anti-Russian placards, even though there are no more than a handful of people at it, it is a blow to national consciousness.

Generally, the media refuse to reckon with the people's will (and the government's policy) to remember the historical eminence of Russia, to develop its own 'fairway' in the international politics.

Seeking dubious popularity (if not intentionally undermining the public conscious), they act as 'disturbers of peace', work for the split in the Russian society. The media claim the role of an arbiter in politics, but in reality they virtually resuscitate the almost abaited strifes between the supporters of socialist and market-oriented values, pro-western and Slavophile outlooks. Some programs, for example, the ORT journalist Vladimir Pozner's Vremena (Times) sometimes seem to deliberately fuel and even artificially instigate other conflicts, uncharacteristic of the Russians as a nation (whose mentality was historically internationalist, generally tolerant and collectivist), such as the oppositions Russians - 'blacks (Asians)', Christians - Muslims, people - authority, businessmen - government officials, even drivers - the State traffic safety inspectorate, etc. All this is done against the backdrop of permanent verbal humiliation of the Russians, the reminder of their inferiority; the defamation of the Soviet period of the Russian history, the Russian Orthodox church and the Russian civilization in general.

A pacifying voice is heard only too rarely, for example, Sergey Shargunov's (the journalist and the leader of 'For Motherland' Youth Union) statement about the young people in modern Russia: 'There are no real barriers between the young supporters of 'Yabloko' (the liberal democratic party headed by Grigory Yavlinsky), nationalist Bolsheviks and red-bannered Komsomol leaders. The difference of ideologies has long faded away... All sound people should discard the useless doctrines. What really matters is people, those who do not shy away from the common national values, who are ready to work for the public boon and believe in Russia's capacity to shine in the world. The battle of imaginative society models is in the past... Let us stop being scared by our own grandfathers and grandmothers'.

The mass media today is the front of counterproductive opposition. As if the unity of Russian society is necessary to Vladimir Putin alone! It is necessary to all those who are concerned about Russia's future.

Except for news programs, the choice of subjects for the information provision of our society is today arbitrarily determined by the mass media. Are they always right in their choice? The answer is 'no'. The topics of labor and creative endeavour, science, folk arts and crafts, the burning subject of poverty, the debatable subjects like the territorial self-government, etc. have all been forced out of the mass media programs. The TV journalists evidently assume that the viewers will be more interested and educated if they are shown pictures of glamorous life, luxurious dwellings and clothes of stars, models and celebtities, soap operas, innumerable mafia serials, TV games of fortune, occasionally, prefabricated political debates and preconceived political analyses, instead of the pictures of everyday work. They warp the viewers' taste by spicing their programs with obsenities, public exposures, indiscreet confessions, public insults and rows. They pride themselves of having eradicated the notorious 'weavers and steelmakers' achievements' TV stuff of the Soviet times.

Certainly, the journalists may account for their slighting the subject of creative labor by the decline of interest to it in the society. But isn't this interest worth reviving? Isn't it noble to raise the prestige of an honest working individual, capable of earning his living and simultaneously advancing the progress of his or her country? If you are the fourth branch of power, your task is not only to criticize (or serve to) the first three, nor it is to ensure the survival of your periodical by any means. Being the power you should work as an authorized government department, rendering tangible help to the society, helping people to cope with their problems, to develop and improve.

Take the subject of regional self-government in Russia. It appears, that the journalists do not understand that with the viable regional self-government the efficiency of mass media would be higher, for example, the backing of the united self-organized masses could help them fight corruption. The law of regional self-government has never been given proper attention to in the press, except for the cases of squabbles between governors and mayors. Fundamentally, the mediamen assume that their papers will read better if there is shadiness and intrigue in their information. 'Governor Urges Mayor to Resign', 'Retired Mayor Threatens to Fire All Officials Who Follow His Deputy's Instructions' run the newspaper headngs. The information itself is frequently outrageously biased and smacks of bribery by this or that disputing party, rather than of the journalsts' genuine interest in the common cause. Most of the audience are sure that a crying elderly lady, say, in a delapidated hut will be given no real help, but serve as a mere tool to get a mayor dismissed.

Yet what is really needed is that jounalists clarify the essence of the law to the people, let them know their rights. For example, for several years there has been despoliation of forests, despite the protests of the people of the nearby settlements and villages. No one can get the lumbermen to stop or even be more careful. The dwellers of the settlements do not know that under the regional self-government law they have considerable rights for their lands and forests. Probably, neither do the journalists, who even confuse the terms 'regional self-government' and ' local administration'.

Most central mass media in Russia stand up in a united front against Vladimir Putin's strengthening of the 'vertical of power', disparaging it as the onslaught on democracy. One can only imagine their outcry if Putin repeats the Russian czar Alexander II's decision in 1861 to appoint a centralized institution of Senate-approved arbitrators - intermediaries, helping the regional authorities to settle the issues of repartition of estate between the landowners and the former serf peasants. They also observed the organization and functioning of peasants' self-governments, which at that time, just like today, placed the governors' authorities at certain disadvantage. The latter had preferred to keep the people in backwardness and ignorance.

The repartition of estate is too serious a matter to be done without control of a disinterested party. Now, with the adoption in Russia of the law on private property for land, people often quite suddenly find themselves living on a new landowner's estate. There are cases of country communities wishing, for example, to repair an old road or bridge and being refused by their landowners. The mass media used to be fervent advocates of the law on private property for land. Why aren't they vocal in exposing the negative consequences of land privatization and calling for their amendment? This would be their work for the common cause.

Sociologists have invented the method of 'participant observation' . Unfortunately, very few journalists have adopted this approach, although is it the observation 'from within' that can give the truest view on the society and the possible solutions of its problems.

So far the impression is that the information war is being waged against Russia on its own territory. The specific stratagem of this war is that the people do not realize they are being fought against; their opponents profess themselves to be their guides and tutors. They claim to be teaching the Russian nation what 'democracy', 'freedom of speech', and 'panhuman values' are. Simultaneously the national mentality is being undermined and destroyed, which results in lowering the morale, hence, selling up industry, plundering the country's resources, disorganization of the army and security services, etc.

It is time for us to realize, that the mass media, raised to unprecedented heights by information technologies, virtually guide our lives, even though they lack responsibility, are indifferent to the actual demands of the society, do not attempt to foresee the prospects for social development, disregard, distort and transform the public opinion and values. It is also time for the mass media to conduct an unbiased self-analysis, stop imposing counterproductive ideas on the public, and start showing themselves not as combatants with, but as servants of the community.

Dale Earnhardt: The Finale

!: Dale Earnhardt: The Finale

In 2000, Earnhardt began looking like his old self. Many believed it was due to neck surgery he'd had to repair the injury he suffered at Talledega in '96. He won 2 of the most exciting races of that season. One was at Atlanta when he beat Bobby Labonte to the finish by.006 seconds, the other occurred at Talledega when Earnhardt gained 17 positions in 4 laps to take the victory. With these wins under his belt, Earnhardt climbed to 2cnd place in the point standings. But wrecks at Watkins Glen and Bristol, plus poor performances in a couple of other races would prevent him from gaining another title.

It was a beautiful day for racing, February 18, 2001. The first official race of the year, the 'Super Bowl' of NASCAR, the Daytona 500. Despite not winning the Twin 125 qualifying race he'd dominated for most of the '90's, Dale Earnhardt looked relaxed and confident before the start of the race. A spectacular wreck in which several cars were eliminated from competing occurred late in the race. After a red flag stop for track cleanup, the race continued with Dale Earnhardt, son Dale Jr., and his DEI teammate Micheal Waltrip in front. With 3 laps to go, it was Waltrip in the lead followed by Earnhardt Jr. and Dale Sr. Earnhardt Sr. had been fighting off Sterling Marlin's attempts to take the third position.

During the last lap, Earnhardt was racing three wide with Marlin and Kenny Schrader. For reasons unknown, Earnhardt's car suddenly dove down the track. The left rear quarter of Earnhardt's car made slight contact with Marlin's front bumper. The #3 car ran down off the track and onto the apron, then started to head back up the track. Earnhardt's car hit Schrader's car and Dale ran head long into the wall at 160 miles per hour. Compared to similar wrecks of that type, it didn't appear to anyone that it was that bad. Waltrip went on to win the race. EMT crews, along with Dale Jr. rushed to the crash scene. Earnhardt was taken to Halifax Medical Center by ambulance. Some hours later NASCAR president, Mike Helton announced Dale Earnhardt's death. Not just NASCAR, but the whole sports world was stunned. The once seemingly unbeatable Dale Earnhardt was gone.

But as a friend pointed out to me, he probably died right where it fitted him. Doing what he loved so much, and was so damn good at. Dale Earnhardt Jr. races still, and has some accomplishments under his belt. Dale Earnhardt Sr., he was competitive, stubborn, tough, to his friends and family, just a good 'ole boy from North Carolina, and he was a winner. He was all those things. I'd like to think when he got to heaven, Ralph Earnhardt was there to meet his son. With a handshake, a pat on the back, and a comment that went something like this, "Damn, boy, you did pretty good. I'm proud of ya."

Corporatism IS Socialism

!: Corporatism IS Socialism

The signs said it, the chants were all proclaiming it. The first Tea Party-based rally I ever attended was filled with assertions that our President was taking us down the road to Socialism. With many of them, however, if you asked about social security or medicare they'd tell you that that was their right and you couldn't take it away. Well, that's actually not even the most glaring way in which they were... not mistaken, because they're right... just incomplete in their assessment of our current economic condition. We've been a socialist society for years. So, let's take a look at Socialism. The idea is that a group of central planners can set market conditions from the outside that are "fair" to all participants and stimulate growth. The problem is that it just doesn't work. When you attempt to set by fiat, you take away the incentives to production. No one or nothing produces to capacity. The primary problem is that it leads to fascism. Nobel Prize winning economist Ludwig von Mises and fellow Austrian FA Hayek have both discussed this issue in depth. The Road to Serfdom, Hayek's seminal work discusses Democratic Socialism that led to the fascist regimes in Germany and Italy in the run-up to World War II.

The form of socialism we have followed is a bit more deceptive, but it amounts to the same thing. Instead of boards of bureaucrats making all economic decisions, which ultimately leads to the appointment of a totalitarian system, we've used a combination of congressional grants to bureaucrats and the use of subsidies and incentives to drive economies through certain favored industries and favored companies. It's quite laughable to suggest that our current economic condition has anything to do with Capitalism run amok. Sadly, it is entirely the opposite that is true. Capitalism was strangled, snuffed out, and buried in the early 20th century. Small vestiges remain, usually in new industries formed by entrepreneurs, but the lure of regulating competition, subsidies, and planning usually quashes it in relatively short order.

Well, if Capitalism is so great, why do businessmen support Government intervention so often? Two words come to mind: Profit Motive.

In a capitalistic system when you have a business idea that is profitable, it draws competition. Increased supply of the good or service brought about by competition lowers profits. So, with the expansion of powers available to the Federal Government, businesses can seek protection for their profits by supporting government regulation of their industries. This erects what are known as barriers to entry. It makes the initial cost of getting into a particular industry higher and slows the rate in which competition can impact their profits. The types of regulations can be anything from licensing requirements, forced unionization, permitting requirements, reporting mandates, capitalization mandates, government subsidies, mandates that products follow a certain patented methodology, or by restricting access to materials. These restrictions on competition, restraints on trade, barriers to entry, and other government supported monopolies form up what is known as Corporatism. Basically it's a combination of government and government sponsored corporate planning.

We can't get capitalism back. Even if all the old regulatory schemes, bureaus, boards, and planning authorities were wiped out. They'd just come right back. So long as our Government has the authority to shape so much of our economic life, so long as they have unchecked authority to pass any regulation, mandate or tax, then there will be corporations and individuals who will pursue these to maximize their profits. On this front I have good news and bad news.

The Good News is that our Founding Fathers drafted a Constitution that limited the power of government to impact every economic aspect of our lives.

The Bad News is that we've been ignoring these limitations for so long that the vast Majority of people have no idea that they ever existed in the first place.

The Road to Serfdom remains one of the all-time classics of twentieth-century intellectual thought. For over half a century, it has inspired politicians and thinkers around the world, and has had a crucial impact on our political and cultural history. With trademark brilliance, Hayek argues convincingly that, while socialist ideals may be tempting, they cannot be accomplished except by means that few would approve of. Addressing economics, fascism, history, socialism and the Holocaust, Hayek unwraps the trappings of socialist ideology. He reveals to the world that little can result from such ideas except oppression and tyranny. Today, more than fifty years on, Hayek's warnings are just as valid as when The Road to Serfdom was first published.

Radicals For Capitalism - A History of Libertarianism

!: Radicals For Capitalism - A History of Libertarianism

A fascinating look at the history of the uniquely American political philosophy of Libertarianism, Radicals for Capitalism is a richly rewarding book on the beginnings of the Libertarian movement and some of its founding members and supporters. Brian Doherty does an excellent job in writing a compelling history of the Libertarian movement.

For anyone with an interest in small government politics this book is not only informative but entertaining. While most people captivated by the Libertarian movement have only a cursory knowledge of its beginnings, reading this book will flesh out your knowledge in an engaging and informative way. Ayn Rand? Everyone has heard of her, but how about Isabel Paterson and Rose Wilder Lane? All three women can be said to have lain the roots for the libertarian movement of today.

All three published important works in 1943, pre-dating Hayeks Road to Serfdom and other seminal Libertarian works. Rands The Fountainhead, Lanes The Discovery of Freedom and Patersons The God of the Machine were all put out in 1943 birthing many important ideas of the Libertarian movement. Explaining Americas exceptionalism, defending the greatness of the founding documents and espousing on the importance of individual liberties these women are of great importance to anyone interested liberty and freedom. While Paterson and Lanes books are difficult to find, they can be located with a little digging, Laissez- Faire books would be a good place to start.

Ayn Rands books are available just about everywhere. Covering the well known like F.A. Hayek and the less known but influential (within the movement) like Murray Rothbrand this book has all the bases covered. The chapter "Goldwater, The Objectivist Crack-up, and Hippies of the Right" had some laugh out loud moments. Covering the Austrian School of Economics and the Chicago School this book explains sometimes mundane and complex subjects in an interesting and understandable manner.

An unimpeachable classic work in political philosophy, intellectual and cultural history, and economics, The Road to Serfdom has inspired and infuriated politicians, scholars, and general readers for half a century. Originally published in 1944—when Eleanor Roosevelt supported the efforts of Stalin, and Albert Einstein subscribed lock, stock, and barrel to the socialist program—The Road to Serfdom was seen as heretical for its passionate warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production. For F. A. Hayek, the collectivist idea of empowering government with increasing economic control would lead not to a utopia but to the horrors of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy.First published by the University of Chicago Press on September 18, 1944, The Road to Serfdom garnered immediate, widespread attention. The first printing of 2,000 copies was exhausted instantly, and within six months more than 30,000 books were sold. In April 1945, Reader’s Digest published a condensed version of the book, and soon thereafter the Book-of-the-Month Club distributed this edition to more than 600,000 readers. A perennial best seller, the book has sold 400,000 copies in the United States alone and has been translated into more than twenty languages, along the way becoming one of the most important and influential books of the century.With this new edition, The Road to Serfdom takes its place in the series The Collected Works of F. A. Hayek. The volume includes a foreword by series editor and leading Hayek scholar Bruce Caldwell explaining the book's origins and publishing history and assessing common misinterpretations of Hayek's thought. Caldwell has also standardized and corrected Hayek's references and added helpful new explanatory notes. Supplemented with an appendix of related materials ranging from prepublication reports on the initial manuscript to forewords to earlier editions by John Chamberlain, Milton Friedman, and Hayek himself, this new edition of The Road to Serfdom will be the definitive version of Friedrich Hayek's enduring masterwork.

A prominent British conservative warns Americans to stop President Obama from leading their country down the path to European-style socialism.

In March 2009, British conservative Daniel Hannan became a celebrity overnight when he assailed prime minister Gordon Brown on the floor of the European Parliament. The YouTube clip went viral, leading to whirlwind appearances on FOX News and other conservative media outlets. A thoughtful and articulate spokesman for conservative ideas, Hannan is better versed in America's traditions and founding documents than many Americans are. In The New Road to Serfdom, Hannan argues forcefully and passionately that Americans must not allow Barack Obama to take them down the road to European Union–style social democracy. He pleads with Americans not to abandon the founding principles that have made their country a beacon of liberty for the rest of the world.

Hayek argued that within a centrally planned economy, distribution andAllocation of all resources and goods would be transferred to a small group who are not able to process all relevant information appropriate distribution of resources and goods would be available to central planners. Disagreement on the practical implementation of a business plan with the inadequacy of the central management resource planning would inevitably requires coercion combined to achieve something. Hayek also argued that the failure ofcentral planning would be by the public as a lack of sufficient power exercised by the State to implement a good idea otherwise. This perception could lead the public to vote more power to the state, and would give rise to power of a "strong man" may be perceived support to "do the job."
