Message: Entry: Is Europe Waking Up? Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/europes_suicide_the_turning_point#3832 Post contents: sid asked: "Mr. Joseph Populist: But what if the choice is between either internationalism in business and trade (and thus the ability to sell to different cultures), or destitution?" Well, that's not the choice that we are facing is it? Unrestrained "free" trade always leads to chaos, and as an example we have example the "flat earth" policy of globalization, which is not enriching the third world, it's pushing the third world INTO destitution. You'are a fool if you believe that old fool Hayek's tract that "free trade" makes everyone a winner and ' lifts all boats. It's one of the Number Uno fallacies of the "Libertarian" non-mind. Once you understand that "Austrian" or discredited 19th Century "Laissez faire" economics (same thing) is a lot of horseshit, you might be able to advance to second grade. Libertarianism is the mirror image of Marxist_Leninism. Alan Greenspan and Tom Friedman are as dangerous as Chavez or Castro. Sent at: 2008 05 16
