About The Daily Capitalist
This blog comments on economics, politics, and finance from a free market perspective. We try to present ideas the reader would not find in contemporary media. In addition to the founder of the Classical School of economics, Adam Smith, our influences are from the Austrian school of economics. Among its leading thinkers have been Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich von Hayek. There are many practitioners of this school today and some of their blogs are shown on the blogroll. We trace our political philosophy back to Edmund Burke, David Hume, John Locke, and Thomas Jefferson, to name a few.
Our goal is to challenge contemporary thinking, mainly from those who promote Keynesian economics (almost everyone) and those who rely on statist solutions to problems.
We also have an interest in investments and finance, and specifically investment risk and the role of the business cycle.
We don’t consider ourselves Democrats or Republicans, right wing or left wing. We’re on the freedom wing.
We also publish articles in Zero Hedge, Noozhawk.com, and The Montecito Journal.
We hope you enjoy our commentary, and please join in the discussion.
