For example, Murray Rothbard has argued that the Federal Reserve System engaged in a prolonged postwar inflation of the money supply in order to help Great Britain restore its prewar gold-Pound relationship. That inflation led to the crash of 1929 and the Great Depression. Perhaps if the United States had refrained from entering the war, and if a negotiated settlement had been reached, the Fed would not have felt obliged to assist Britain in achieving its unrealistic aims. No one would suggest that Woodrow Wilson foresaw those consequences and intervened anyway. But the intelligent men who warned that war would lead to revolution and totalitarianism were vindicated.
Willing war means willing all the evils that are organically bound up with it.
Our mission is to present an uncompromising moral, philosophical, and economic case for the libertarian philosophy. In the five years we have been publishing our essays, no one has ever found any compromise of libertarian principles. When it comes to advancing liberty, we always talk in terms of abolishing, ending, eliminating, and repealing. We hope you will subscribe to Freedom Daily and become a financial contributor to The Future of Freedom Foundation. And we believe that you would find our books and tapes highly rewarding.
