“From the perspective of society as a whole, there is no fixed or objective need aside from those broad categories required for survival. Rarely, if ever, is there a fixed quantity or definite quality demanded. This is why the needs of individuals are best met by other individuals according to supply, demand, and the price mechanism. And this is why most of the needs of individuals cannot be met only by central government.”

“For one thing, this steady devaluation of the dollar is a new practice, relatively speaking. For most of our country’s history, the dollar gained value. The dollar was worth 75 percent more in 1912 than it was worth in 1800. You know those stories your parents or grandparents tell about how they used to buy a sandwich and a fountain soda for a dime? How everything was so much cheaper back in the day? If you were around in 1900, for instance, the old folk didn’t tell those sorts of stories. What cost a dime in 1900 probably cost fifteen cents in 1875, and twenty cents in 1800.
Of course, since 1912, the dollar has lost more than 95 percent of its value....You will remember what happened in 1913: the Fed was created.”
― Peter Schiff, The Real Crash

― Thomas Sowell, Basic Economics: A Citizen's Guide to the Economy

“Prices in the traditional model were quite inappropriate as guides to the efficient allocation of resources, and were (generally) not used as such. This resulted from the state determination of all prices at infrequent intervals; the fact that enterprise activities were supposed to be determined by the plan they received from above; the rationing of producer goods; and the fact that prices were fixed on a cost-plus basis.”
― Michael Ellman, Socialist Planning

“She cast a dazed and sad eye over the many things the airport offered to her as she left. Surely, she couldn't depart England without a bottle of whisky, a set of china teacups, a Paddington Bear, a biography of some grim-looking sportsdude, an overpriced purse, a shawl, several bottles of perfume ...
"Did people come to the airport just to set their money on fire?
"There were more practical offerings as well. Every other shop offered candy, water, luggage tags, and toothbrushes. Stuff you might have forgotten or need on the way.”
― Maureen Johnson, Nine Liars
