Feudalism, Fascism, Libertarianism and Economics — Book Announcement


"Eric Zuesse has written a provocative and challenging volume, though in my opinion he sometimes goes too far in his criticisms and claims. This book proposes two new postulates to replace existing ones that are at the foundation of microeconomic theory. It cites the existing body of empirical findings in economics as being the reasons for them, and it presents a strong empirical case for each of its two new postulates as being true and the one that it is replacing as being false. I regard his book as the work of a serious, committed scholar whose views deserve to be taken seriously."

Absolutely a superb book, Eric Zeusss describes how libertarianism is the ruling class's replacement for fascism after it failed to replace democracy. I used it a lot online to take out libertarians. Also look up Mark Ames and the history of libertarianism. It's not a grassroots movement at all, but was paid for by the corporate class.

Before Milton Friedman was earning plaudits as an economic genius, he was a shill for the real estate industry and an early pioneer for big business propaganda known as libertarianism.
