Procapitalism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Procapitalism is a political party in Northern Ireland[1], Austria[citation needed], Germany[citation needed], France[citation needed], Britain[2], and the Republic of Ireland[citation needed]. Its philosophy is based on laissez-faire capitalism. Procapitalism is led by Charles Smyth.
Procapitalism claims to be a pan-European party, and that its philosophy is based on the writings and teachings of the Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises who fled Nazi occupied Austria, and took up residence in America, and the subsequent writings and teachings of his former students Murray N. Rothbard and George Reisman.
