The late President
Ronald Reagan praised an early article he wrote making the case for
capitalism against
socialism. Reagan summed up his commentary on Linaweaver with a line, "How right he is!" The radio broadcast is included in the Reagan CD set, ''In His Own Voice,'' and in the book, ''Stories in His Own Hand: The Everyday Wisdom of Ronald Reagan.'' Linaweaver has since maintained his
conservative political views, co-authoring the
Big Lizards blog with Ab Hugh and his wife Sachi.
