Sobre IBD

A free-market text on the emergence in America of a Great Experiment. Stemming from Alexander Hamilton’s statememnt in Federalist #1 and stated two centuries later by Ronald Reagan: 'Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.' Hamilton wondered if men were capable of ruling themselves. This text deals with that hope and duty and my attempts over the years to express to my students a spark to relight that fire the Framers and Founders felt when creating the greatest experiment in freedom the world has seen.
