Nine's User ID: 23438707 United States 12/08/2012 10:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | YES! LOL. So many good ones,OP. Frederic Bastiat "The Law" comes to mind. Bastiat's great passions were liberty and economics. He tried until his death to convince those who would listen, that the ideas are inseparable. If you don't like God mentioned in any works, you won't like this, because He is referred to. Example: "It is not because men have made laws, that personality, liberty, and property exist. On the contrary, it is because personality, liberty, and property exist beforehand, that men make laws. What, then, is law? As I have said elsewhere, it is the collective organization of the individual right to lawful defense. Nature, or rather God, has bestowed upon every one of us the right to defend his person, his liberty, and his property, since these are the three constituent or preserving elements of life; elements, each of which is rendered complete by the others, and that cannot be understood without them. For what are our faculties, but the extension of our personality? and what is property, but an extension of our faculties? If every man has the right of defending, even by force, his person, his liberty, and his property, a number of men have the right to combine together to extend, to organize a common force to provide regularly for this defense. Collective right, then, has its principle, its reason for existing, its lawfulness, in individual right; and the common force cannot rationally have any other end, or any other mission,....."
