The WallStreetJournal.com takes notes of our intellectual hero, Ludwig Von Mises, and how Von Mises explained how government-induced credit expansions led to imbalances in the economy.
Judge Andrew Napolitano of Fox News says:
“When I recently asked Congressman James Clyburn, the third ranking Democrat in the House, to tell me “Where in the Constitution the federal government is authorized to regulate everyone’s healthcare-, he replied that most of what Congress does is not authorized by the Constitution, but they do it anyway.
