Thomas Friedman Wants A “Center-Left” Democratic Party Based on Austrian Economic Myths


New Economic Perspectives has the article Thomas Friedman Wants A “Center-Left” Democratic Party Based on Austrian Economic Myths.

The dishonest aspect of all this is that Friedman advises Hillary to adopt these hard-right dogmas, which have repeatedly led to the epidemics of elite fraud that drove our last three financial crises, as a means to achieve rapid economic growth and financial stability. The hilarious aspect of this is that Friedman claims that Hillary’s embrace of ultra-right wing tropes would produce a “compassionate, center-left Web party for the 21st century.” Center-left?

You need to be armed with the information in this article (it’s ok if you already know this information) to guard against being duped by phony, right-wing theories. If you are going to explain to other people what is wrong with these theories and especially with Libertarians in general, you need to know what is in this article.
