Reading challenge

[Kentactic]

I've got a reading challenge for anyone who dares to challenge their current faith in whatever parts of the government they may have it. All challenges can be had for free in PDF form at the provided links. I have read challenge #1 and #2 and am a couple chapters into challenge #3. #3 is basically everything there is to understand about economics in a single book. This form of economics is commonly referred to as Austrian economics and is not taught or even mentioned to anyone taking economics at the college level. You could have a degree in Economics and have zero knowledge of this book, meaning you'd still not understand economics.

The list is as follows:

Challenge #1: "The law" by Frederic Bastiat (approximately 55 page essay).

Challenge #2: "Liberalism" by Ludwig von Mises (approximately 200 pages)

Challenge #3: "Man, Economy and state + Power and market" by Murray N. Rothbard (approximately 1400 pages).

This looks interesting, thanks for sharing Ken

I do not agree with everything written in these works. They do contradict themselves in some cases. They do make claims without any evidence in some cases. However, if the basic structure provided in these works,   can be understood, from there you will find yourself either abandoning certain faiths in government or inevitably contradicting yourself. You may read for example, "The law" and find yourself in full agreement with the essay. But you may squirm when what that implies, is explained to you. If anyone does read one or more of these works, please comment with your thoughts afterwards.
