I wanted to start a "positive" thread, to lighten the mood.
The biggest reason I am a Libertarian capitalist (I come from a middle class family for the record) is because of how I was raised. My family had the luxury of living in Switzerland for a few years in the 70's before I was born. This exposed my family to Capitalism and Peace, some austrian principles like sound money, etc. As a college student I was also introduced to Ron Paul around 2008, and then eventually the other great Austrian economists like Von Mises, Rothbard, and such. Walter Block was the very first Austrian I studied in more depth. Lastly, I just wanted to say that Libertarianism is superior to any other ideology because we don't want to force our beliefs on others. We are extremely peaceful and I have always respected that.
It is a little troubling more people don't understand this, having read some threads here recently, but hopefully mises.org can continue to grow and debate the merits of Austrian Economics.
I was a Libertarian the moment I popped out of my mother's snatch. I win.
An Austrian Libertarian? You get extra points if that's the case.
None of this Koch brothers Libertarian stuff, that doesn't count. :P
Libertarianism begins at conception!!
