Published in 1994, it was a little book consisting of various essays that FFF had published since our inception in January 1990. It was coedited by Richard Ebeling and me.

At the time, Richard was the Ludwig von Mises Professor of Economics at Hillsdale College and was also serving as FFF's vice-president of academic affairs. He later went on to become president of The Foundation for Economic Education (FEE) and is now serving as the BB&T Distinguished Professor of Ethics and Free Enterprise Leadership at the Citadel.

In the book, which is still available at Amazon, we made the principled libertarian case for separating healthcare and the state, just as our ancestors separated church and state. In other words, no governmental involvement in healthcare at all. No regulations, no controls, and no central planning. No FDA. No Center for Disease Control. No Medicare. No Medicaid. No medical licensure.

A total free market in healthcare — meaning that the entire healthcare arena would be free of governmental involvement, interference, control, mandatory charity, licensing, and coercive redistribution of wealth.

That libertarian free-market position is the position that we have continued advancing through today.
