Its teachings are very, very simple: There really are free and natural markets where the optimum value
of things is assigned to them; everyone must compete with everyone; the worthy will prosper and the unworthy fail; those who succeed while others fail will be made deeply and justly
happy by this experience, having had no other object in life; each
of us is poorer for every
cent that is used toward the wealth
of all
of us; governments are instituted among
people chiefly to interfere with the working out
of these splendid principles.
