Απάντησα στο άρθρο που λέει ότι είμαστε οι φιλελεύθεροι είναι οι νέοι κομμουνιστές.
λέει: «EXTREME POSITIONS: The relationship between social happiness and economic success can be plotted on a bell curve, and the sweet spot is away from the extremes of either pure liberty or pure communitarianism. »

και του απαντώ :Ρ

He is right about not taking extreme positions, we ‘ve seen what Far right ideologies like National Socialism did to Germany and far left ideologies like Socialism did to the USSR. If you imagine two axis with the x taking values from far left to far right and the y axis taking values from no Statism to absolute Statism the relationship between social happiness and economic success can be plotted on a REVERSE bell curve and the sweet spot is away from the extremes of either pure Nazism or pure Communism. Center-left like the Democrats and center-right like the Conservatives brought us where we are now, in economic Crisis, it is time to leave the extremes and half way measures and adopt libertarian policies. 😛 (see? you ‘re not the only one that can make an empty argument based on the Golden Mean fallacy – argumentum ad temperantiam)

We are the sweet spot, the middle ground, the Golden mean 😛

absolute Statism
