Additional information about and where to buy Cliches of Socialism
Failure to answer socialistic clichés has effectively silenced many a spokesman for freedom. Clichés of Socialism is a collection of suggested answers to some of the most common arguments used in favor of socialism today. The contributing authors include Leonard E. Read and others.
From the Frontspiece:
When a devotee of private property, free market, limited government principles states his position, he is inevitably confronted with a barage of socialistic clichés. Failure to answer these has effectively silenced many a spokesman for freedom.
Here are suggested answers to some of the most persistent of the "Clichés of Socialism." These are not the only answers or even the best possible answers; but they may help you or others to develop better explanations of the ideas on liberty that are the only effective displacement for the empty promises of socialism.
