We are trying to figure out how many to stock? What do you think?

90% chance that I'll order one if you ship overseas.

Needs a good quote by the man on there some where. Possibly a humorous one. :)

"The power of liberty going forward is in decentralization.  Not in leaders, but in decentralized activism.  In a market process." -- liberty student

Personally, I would like to see a greater selection of t-shirts. I'm not artistic enough to design my own and have CafePress make it for me.

I second the quote idea, maybe in a subtle etched style that is the same color of the steel & doesn't stick out too much from the darker steel color used below in the pic. 

I think the quote "There is one good thing about Marx- he wasn't a Keynesian" would be aptly sardonic, but there are probably better quotes to be mined from his larger quotes (to fit on the flask). 

Although, it has just as much style without the quote & is powerful & elegant in its simplicity. 

I would definitely buy one of these; being an enemy of the state is no picnic, for sure :)

Forget AA, I may even take up drinking again!

Drink up me heartiees yo-ho! This is why I love the Mises institute, always creating, always improving, always formulating new commodities for the market. By the way, loved your podcast on Dissident Publishing Mr. Tucker, lead me to buy Hazlitts Economics in One Lesson.

Was he a whisky or gin man?  Please tell me he was not a vodka man at least.

I want! Too bad I can't drink. I guess I could fill it with juice, but that seems kind of lame.

How much would one cost?

Jeff mentioned on the Mises Blog that it may be around $18.

I love my "Enemy of the State" Nock t-shirt.  I'd definitely buy one of these.

You probably, if my inference is correct, can't drink legally; hence, the "enemy of the state" flask is even more suitable.

I'd certainly certainly buy one

The difference between libertarianism and socialism is that libertarians will tolerate the existence of a socialist community, but socialists can't tolerate a libertarian community.
