If you like Walter Williams' work,

....you'll love the Mises Institute's free books, especially their two collections of the writings of Frederic Bastiat. Why?

One big reason why has something to do with something a pastor told me; all too often, religious people who get involved in politics lose their spiritual edge. I think Bastiat indirectly nails the reason why; too many have gotten so caught up in the "pragmatics" of politics that they forget that politics and economics are (Romans 13) at their heart a moral exercise.

Bastiat does this by predicating the arguments he makes against protectionism, high taxation, and government spending on the basic Biblical premise "Thou Shalt not Steal."

It's also wonderful writing, even in translation. I commend Bastiat to you, especially if you were corrupted by the likes of Rousseau and such when in school.
