It is easy to oppose Israel's massacre in the Gaza Strip. Just watch a few horrifying videos. What is not easy is understanding the price system, its prerequisites -- private property and free exchange -- and its benefits for mankind, including civil peace.
It's hard to argue against people who want to give you things "for free". But that argument has to be made. I've found that I need to have thick skin in making that argument, as the opponents of free markets love to use ridicule against anyone defending free markets.
