“I am writing to express my admiration for your article entitled “The Rise of American Big Government: A Brief History of How We Got Here,” published in the Fall 2009 issue of The Objective Standard. The article is well reasoned, well written, and well substantiated. Its succinctness and clarity allowed this economics neophyte to grasp a number of abstruse economic issues, and pulled back a curtain of ignorance that, for me, has always surrounded topics pertaining to the Great Depression and The New Deal.”
— A. Song
