Notes from Frederick Bastiat’s Essays on Political Economy
by Catherine McGrew Jaime
Frederick Bastiat was a French economist living in the early and mid-1800's, but his economic and political insight is timeless. Here, in this small e-booklet, Catherine shares many of his key points, along with a limited amount of commentary. If you are a conservative and have never read Bastiat's Essays, this is a great way to be introduced to them!So what does a radio DJ's salad and Schrodinger's cat have in common? Absolutely nothing, unless you consider if one of them decides to go on vacation, the salad that is, then all you have is a cat all alone with nothing to do except ponder its existence. So what about the salad? Legend of the Salad Traveler is a lighthearted story of a salad that weighed 5.5 ounces, and it decides to go on vacation; a man unexpectedly ends up in your shower and tells you he knows how to find it. Just make sure you keep enough rocks in your pocket. That's explained later, and it has something to do with moving from universe to universe as this is a story of epic proportions - well not epic, maybe whimsical proportions and fun nonetheless.
