During Walter Block's recent visit to San Francisco and his attendance at the Circle Rothbard here, Walter told us a story.
He said that when is son was very young, he and his wife used to deduct 25 cents from his allowance every time that he used a "bad word."
His son is grown now, but Walter is so much of a libertarian, all day long, that his wife has taken to fining him $10.00 every time he says, "That's because of the government."

I would show this to my wife, but it could impoverish me.
ReplyDeleteIf eyerolls from my family members every time I said the same cost me a nickel, I'd be broke. It still wouldn't stop me from saying it again though.
