Episode 13: Ludwig von Mises & The Modern Left

Ludwig Heinrich Edler von Mises was a brilliant and prominent economist, historian, sociologist and author with far too many accolades and extensive writings to jump into in one episode. In this episode, I take a dive into his 1927 book Liberalism in the Classical Tradition, a comprehensive explanation of classical liberal policies and presentation of the benefits of these policies from an economical and moral perspective. Today, we focus on only a few of the many topics within the writing... these topics include:

Property... Freedom... and Capitalism

The Modern Left today are universally referred to as "liberals" and I feel we need to separate and clearly define liberals today vs. liberals in the classical sense. Leftists... Is a much more accurate and appropriate definition for liberals today. The original emergence and policies advocated from liberals in the classical sense, drastically differs from the leftists today. We will use these three specific topics as examples and I will highlight why I define myself, both from an economical and moral standpoint, as a liberal in the classical sense.

Enjoy. Or not.

Yours Truly.
