Liechtenstein is way free market. Go figure. I always thought they are pretty socialist and it works because of banking. But if you suggested the Liechtenstein model in the US you would be considered a laissez-faire extremist.

And the people want it, it's a direct democracy. They're voting down taxes. Cool. That really shows that liberty is about ideas.

Sounds like this guy is the monarchical version of Ron Paul. :P

My wife grew up just 15 minutes car drive away from the Principality of Liechtenstein. I have always admires this tiny country and the freedoms it rescues for its people. However, being a Swiss, there is always the distrust that you show to monarchs. Prince Hans-Adam II has proven me wrong.

Watch this Youtube video where Hans-Adams II talks about his book The State in the Third Millenium. In the video he says that government should be transformed into a peaceful, service-providing agency. The man is more radical than Thomas Jefferson.
