    Ludwig Von Mises..“If it is maintained that the consequence of a liberal policy is or must be to favor the special interests of certain strata of society, this is still a question that allows of discussion. It is one of the tasks of the present work to show that such a reproach is in no way justified . . . In the customary rhetoric of the demagogues these facts are represented quite differently. To listen to them, one would think that all progress in the techniques of production redounds to the exclusive benefit of a favored few, while the masses sink ever more deeply into misery. However, it requires only a moment’s reflection to realize that the fruits of all technological and industrial innovations make for an improvement in the satisfaction of the wants of the great masses.”

    I mean, the report includes the opinion of 12-14 different readers in our Book Club. It's a couple thousand words long and wouldn't be appropriate to copy/paste in a comment above.
    Check out the link. Or not.
    Cheers!
