I’m a high school student applying for scholarships, and I recently came across one that asked me to write an essay on whether or not internet commerce should be regulated by the government. I firmly believe that it should not, but since I never learned much about economic systems in school, I wouldn’t know how to defend my position. What are some good sources to go to regarding libertarian economic policies?

The classical work is Henry Hazlitt’s book, Economics in One Lesson:

You might consult, Ludwig von Mises’s book, Planning for Freedom:

Also, take a look at Robert Murphy’s book, Lessons for the Young Economists:
