You should read the road to serfdom. theres a version with intro by milton friedman. So many academical points in it and one the the most poignant ones to me was hayek concern about writing it. Something along his background wasn't economics, and writing it pissed off even people he respected who declared the book rubbish without reading it. It really challenged some concepts that probably could only be seen by those not involved. It probably is still one of the most valuable insights today into state/vs/individual systems and direct reasons for actions involved.
it is boring, especially if you know where it is going but also some sections that reminds you he'd love for some social control a better mechanism. in it all some human condition honestly asking for a lil central control. i dont deny that desire i'd love to be taken care of as much as anyone else. i just understand the involvment, and what it entails and the freedoms needed to check for it . Not my thing. I'll live dangerously without the best buy insurance.
I also think you have to read it to have real understanding of the situation. Well can read and not relate, but its up there with should be mandatory 5th grade stuff.

- you'll believe a neoliberal propagandist over scientists and peer reviewed journals? i mean, i have my own thoughts on that, but i'm not quoting friedman...kingsteven
