> Bastiat was not an economist, but he is known for having been the best, most understandable economic writer. In the linked-to page, scroll down just a bit to "1. The Broken Window." It's all of 16 short paragraphs.

I like Bastiat quite a bit. He is always disconcerting to read, however, as I can almost never find flaws with his arguments though I often find myself a little unhappy with his conclusions.

I'd never seen that essay before, and the point is well put -- and I'm not even vaguely uncomfortable with his conclusion. Thanks for the link.
