Henry Hazlitt (1894 - 1993) was an American conservative economist, writer, journalist and libertarian philosopher.
Hazlitt wrote some 20 books and an estimated 10,000 editorials, columns and articles in his lifetime; his most renowned book is: Economics in One Lesson. He also authored The Foundations of Morality, The Failure of the New Economics, Will Dollars Save the World? and Man vs. The Welfare State.
The art of economics consists in looking not merely at the immediate but at the longer effects of any act or policy; it consists in tracing the consequences of that policy not merely for one group but for all groups.
The only real cure for poverty is production.
