Frederic Bastiat Quotes

Unfortunately, The Mysterious Gold Does Not Come From The Moon, But From The Pocket Of A Blacksmith, Or A Nail-smith, Or A Cartwright, Or A Farrier, Or A Laborer, Or A Shipwright; In A Word, From John Q. Citizen, Who Gives It Now Without Receiving A Grain More Of Iron Than When He Was Paying Ten Francs. Thus, We Can See At A Glance That This Very Much Alters The State Of The Case; For It Is Very Evident That Mr. Protectionist's Profit Is Compensated By John Q. Citizen's Loss, And All That Mr. Protectionist Can Do With The Pot Of Gold, For The Encouragement Of National Labor, John Q. Citizen Might Have Done Himself. The Stone Has Only Been Thrown Upon One Part Of The Lake, Because The Law Has Prevented It From Being Thrown Upon Another.
