When America: Freedom to Fascism came out I jumped in the internet tubes and purchased 6 copies of "How an Economy Grows..." With the lowest Amazon price of $50 and the other two at $200 a piece looks like I did good.

I spoke with Peter at his Minneapolis conference last September and he said he was working to update the "How" book and colorize it. I don't think he'll have copy write issues with the author.

What a good read and so simple a child could understand it.

It should be required reading for anyone literate!

System of control

This book describes a sick and depraived system built on lies in order for a few to enslave the many.

First lie, that all the others are built on, is that there is a shortage of food and one must work all day just to eat. I farm and work only a few days a year to grow all the food I need. Its real food too. I save seed, don't use firtilizer, don't use any machines. The only tools I have are a pick-maddock and a hand trowel. The pick-modoc I only really used at first to get the ground loosened. Haven't used it in years. What I have lots of is knowledge. Rule #1: Feed the soil and the soil will feed you.

To everyone who liked these books: Peter Schiff said that he is reprinting them together with new artwork. "Them" being: How an Economy Grows and Why It Doesn't and Kingdom of Moltz. The story in How an Economy Grows... will be also changed a little bit to reflect the current situation of the US. The two will become one book and available (if I remember correctly) in September.

The price will be much lower than the 50+ dollars per book now. So you might want to wait a while and get the new improved versions - unless you want the old ones as collectibles or something.

He told this in an episode of Wall Street Unspun or in a video blog. I think it was wsu a month back or so.

Film adaptation

I am very interested in adapting these comics into a live action movie which could be sold on dvd or broadcast as a mini-series. Currently looking for other liberty-minded folks with film/tv industry experience who would be interested in collaborating with me on this.

This is nothing more than an idea at this point, but I'm motivated to try to make it happen. If you know of any good contacts, please send them my way.

Glad to hear it, thanks for posting.

Update on the new comic book: in the latest WSU Schiff said that the new comic book (titled "How an economy grows and why it crashes") will be in stores in April 2010.

Reminds me of this great video made for a 3 minute film contest about aspects of Austrian Economics:
Check it out, it's entertaining!

I read all of "How Economies Grow and Why They Don't". It was so great! Thanks for the link. I've moved on to Hazlitt's "Economics in One Lesson".

 

[K466]

Awesome! Can't wait to see the updated book Peter Schiff is working on.

 

[TheBlackPeterSchiff]

This was such a great book. Just when I though I had a solid understand of economics, this book comes in and blows me away. The thing about it is that it is so simple.

It happened the same to me. It helped me understand a lot of basic stuff. Its great. I have a copy in a hard drive in case I have children.

This book is awesome. Maybe I should translate it into German lol
