Thread: Books on general economics?

    Books on general economics?

    I know the extreme basics but definitely not enough. I want to read a general overview about how much we're getting screwed and how things work. And bonus points if it talks about small business and taxes.

    Is there a book or documentary like that?

    Henry Hazlitt's "Economics in One Lesson" is a great read
    The ultimate minority is the individual. Protect the individual from Democracy and you will protect all groups of individuals
    Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. - Thomas Jefferson
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
