Nigel Farage is not a libertarian. He support anti-immigration policies. And he is in favour of the exit of Greece from the euro and the competitive devaluation of the neo-drachma. In addition, he also supported the expansionary monetary policy of the bank of england
So its a "good" thing to devalue the neo-drachma ... but a bad thing for the BOE to expand money supply
How do you think the neo-drachma would be devalued? certainly not by limited printing ...
your generalization of Muslims is an example of collectivism at its worst and highlights the fact that you are an anti-individualist and certainly against liberty
Nigel Farage is not a libertarian. He support anti-immigration policies."
"Immigration" policies pro or anti have nothing to do with libertarianism. "Immigration" is a state policy. In a libertarian society, ALL property would be privately owned, and anybody would require permission from property owners before entering or using that property. The concept of "freedom of movement" would be a complete misnomer and the concept of "immigration" would be meaningless. Logically speaking from a libertarian standpoint, people from other countries have no more "right" to enter a country, then others have a right to reject them. Since both pro-and anti-immigration people "collectively" own public property, there is no way to determine who should have the final say, from a LIBERTARIAN viewpoint, as long as the state exists.
"And he is in favour of the exit of Greece from the euro and the competitive devaluation of the neo-drachma. "
Seeing as people in Europe are FORCED into using the Euro, and Greece have completely screwed up their economy while getting their asses bailed out at the expense of taxpayers all across Europe, i don't see why Farage demanding that Greece be excluded from this coerced redistribution scheme is a "non-libertarian" thing. Unless you think Greece has some sort of right to be bailed out with taxpayer money from other countries. As a matter of fact, how is inclusion into the EU libertarian in ANY way, seeing as governments have made this happen whether the populations liked it or not.
"In addition, he also supported the expansionary monetary policy of the bank of england."
That would be unlibertarian. But then again, so would thinking that Greece has a right to be in the EU at the expense of others.
Austro-libertarians should be against both the euro and the monetary nationalism and flexible exchange rates (as well as would rather Nigel Farage). Fixed exchange rates and a real gold standard are the solution.

ReplyDelete"He support anti-immigration policies."
DeleteWith all the Muslim riff-raft in Britain can you blame him?
"And he is in favour of the exit of Greece from the euro and the competitive devaluation of the neo-drachma."
That's a good thing.
"In addition, he also supported the expansionary monetary policy of the bank of england"
If he does then that's moronic.
Pro-immigration policies are not libertarian and can often be antithetical to liberty. See Hoppe.

DeleteHans-Hermann Hoppe is anti-immigration and indisputably libertarian.
Delete"Nigel Farage is not a libertarian. He support anti-immigration policies."
DeleteDuh. Most immigrants are illiberal, anti-liberty spongers. Any sensible libertarian polity will be anti-immigration by necessity.
I dispute that Hoppe is libertarian because he is anti-immigration.
DeleteLike. Thanks for posting
