I just bought that one. Is it tough to get through or an easy read?

I would say it’s tough but worth it. I’d say the same about Atlas Shrugged.

"The Road to Serfdom" is very accessible. I had my 12 year old read it at one point as part of her homeschool curriculum.

Also take a look at "The Discovery of Freedom" by Rose Wilder Lane (daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder of "Little House on the Prairie", and the real author of the famous series of books). Rose started out as a Lefty and wound up as a strong conservative/libertarian.

So many people are enchanted with socialism and the idea of a planned economy, because they are arrogant enough to think that they would be among the planners.

Well, it was tough for me, but I'll admit to not being the brightest bulb in the lamp. But it's well worth the slog. And I reread it periodically just for the refresher :)
