I signed up just yesterday and dove right in, but I think I should probably introduce myself, so you guys know a little bit about who I am and how I ended up here.
I’m from Germany, 26 years old and I’ve been studying economics and political philosophy since I was around 18. I started out well within the boundaries of the german liberal mainstream (european liberal, not american), e.g. in general supply-side economics infused with the tacid understanding that about 1001 things just have to be provided for by the state. As this is basically as liberal as it gets around here, I didn’t even know that there was such a thing as Austrian economics let alone Anarcho-capitalism.
But along came amazon.com and the “customers who bought this item also bought”-function and suddenly I was holding socially destructive works of evil like “The Ethics of Liberty” in my hands. What a revelation! Finally a consistent philosophy I could really embrace. I’m sure many of you know this feeling.
Then it was pretty straight forward. Over Rothbard I found mises.org about 3 years ago and I haven’t stopped reading since.
