Globalist says Putin killed globalism

LIbertarianism, the Randian thinking, the Classical liberal revival. All these things obscured our choices. We thought our choices were capitalism versus socialism. But the real choice is WHAT TYPE OF CAPITALISM best serves the good life. Was it a fairly egalitarian version based on patient but relentless development of infrastructure where the sole trader was the King, the hero, and the social lion wrapped into one? Or was it this hobgoblin sent to us by Sauron to mock freedom of action? Was it to be every sole trader a feudal lord in his own business? Or was it to be state supported fractional reserve usury depriving all but the very few of the good life?

Every sole trader an Homeric proto-Viking waging endless war against-poverty and for-productivity. Or every numbers racketeer and his Momma leeching off the rest of us.

Atlas is a working class or a sole trader hero. He aint no financier or professional. He isn't someone whose money makes money while he sleeps.
