prau<p>"Everything that serves to preserve the social order is moral; everything that is detrimental to it is immoral. Accordingly, when we reach the conclusion that an institution is beneficial to society, one can no longer object that it is immoral.

prau<p>"It is not on behalf of property owners that liberalism favors the preservation of the institution of private property. It is not because the abolition of that institution would violate property rights that the liberals want to preserve it. If they considered the abolition of the institution of private property to be in the general interest, they would advocate that it be abolished, no matter how prejudicial such a policy might be to the interests of property owners. However, the preservation of that institution is in the interest of all strata of society. Even the poor man, who can call nothing his own, lives incomparably better in our society than he would in one that would prove incapable of producing even a fraction of what is produced in our own." — Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism (1927).<br><a href="https://fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-ludwig-von-mises/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-l</span><span class="invisible">udwig-von-mises/</span></a><br><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/mises" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mises</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/liberalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>liberalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/privateproperty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>privateproperty</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/misesquotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>misesquotes</span></a></p>
prau<p>"The liberal critique of the argument in favor of war is fundamentally different from that of the humanitarians. It starts from the premise that not war, but peace, is the father of all things. What alone enables mankind to advance and distinguishes man from the animals is social cooperation. It is labor alone that is productive: it creates wealth and therewith lays the outward foundations for the inward flowering of man. War only destroys; it cannot create. War, carnage, destruction, and devastation we have in common with the predatory beasts of the jungle; constructive labor is our distinctively human characteristic. The liberal abhors war, not, like the humanitarian, in spite of the fact that it has beneficial consequences, but because it has only harmful ones." — Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism (1927).<br><a href="https://fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-ludwig-von-mises/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-l</span><span class="invisible">udwig-von-mises/</span></a><br><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/mises" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mises</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/liberalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>liberalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/war" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>war</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/misesquotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>misesquotes</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/peace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>peace</span></a></p>
prau<p>"European worker today lives under more favorable and more agreeable outward circumstances than the pharaoh of Egypt once did, in spite of the fact that the pharaoh commanded thousands of slaves, while the worker has nothing to depend on but the strength and skill of his hands. If a nabob of yore could be placed in the circumstances in which a common man lives today, he would declare without hesitation that his life had been a beggarly one in comparison with the life that even a man of moderate means can lead at present. This is the fruit of free labor. It is able to create more wealth for everyone than slave labor once provided for the masters." — Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism (1927).<br><a href="https://fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-ludwig-von-mises/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-l</span><span class="invisible">udwig-von-mises/</span></a><br><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/mises" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mises</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/liberalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>liberalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/workers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workers</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/misesquotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>misesquotes</span></a></p>
prau<p>"The free worker, on the other hand, knows that the more his labor accomplishes, the more he will be paid. He exerts himself to the full in order to raise his income.

prau<p>"The program of liberalism, therefore, if condensed into a single word, would have to read: property, that is, private ownership of the means of production (for in regard to commodities ready for consumption, private ownership is a matter of course and is not disputed even by the socialists and communists).

prau<p>"Marxism is likewise unable to construct a picture of a socialist society without making two assumptions already made by Fourier that contradict all experience and all reason. On the one hand, it assumes that the “material substratum” of production, which is “already present in nature without the need of productive effort on the part of man,” stands at our disposal in such abundance that it need not be economized; hence the faith of Marxism in a “practically limitless increase in production.” On the other hand, it assumes that in a socialist community work will change from “a burden into a pleasure”—indeed, that it will become “the primary necessity of life.” Where a superfluity of all goods abounds and work is a pleasure, it is, doubtless, an easy matter to establish a land of Cockaigne." — Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism.<br><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/mises" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mises</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/liberalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>liberalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/statism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>statism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/misesquotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>misesquotes</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/marx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>marx</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/marxism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>marxism</span></a></p>
prau<p>"A society in which liberal principles are put into effect is usually called a capitalist society, and the condition of that society, capitalism. Since the economic policy of liberalism has everywhere been only more or less closely approximated in practice, conditions as they are in the world today provide us with but an imperfect idea of the meaning and possible accomplishments of capitalism in full flower. Nevertheless, one is altogether justified in calling our age the age of capitalism, because all that has created the wealth of our time can be traced back to capitalist institutions. It is thanks to those liberal ideas that still remain alive in our society, to what yet survives in it of the capitalist system, that the great mass of our contemporaries can enjoy a standard of living far above that which just a few generations ago was possible only to the rich and especially privileged." — Ludwig von Mises, Liberalism.<br><a href="https://fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-ludwig-von-mises/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fee.org/ebooks/liberalism-by-l</span><span class="invisible">udwig-von-mises/</span></a><br><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/mises" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mises</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/liberalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>liberalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/statism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>statism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a></p>
