Modern liberalism is morally bankrupt and demonic.

The internet is filled with so much bad information, one has to go to the books written during the time the extremist regimes were on the rise.

Todays democrats have more in common with Hitler than conservatives and "right wingers" of today.

Remember when Obama said "you didn't build that!"? Hitler said the same thing, and they meant the same thing. Obama was spitting Nazi propaganda and the leftists ate it up.
“Therefore wealth in particular does not only have greater possibilities for enjoyment, but above all greater obligations. The view that the utilization of a fortune no matter of what size is solely the private affair of the individual requires to be corrected all the more in the National Socialist state, because without the contribution of the community no individual would have been able to enjoy such an advantage.”
This isn’t the first time this happened. I remember reading about a young man that went to leftist Universities and read Hitler quotes and they all applauded and raved about it.

More; Politics and state first…
This question was raised specifically by circles who think purely in terms of capitalism and who do not like to see companies developing which are public, or at least of a public character. The age of the liberal system of business demanded the primacy of business, in other words business comes first, and then the state. As opposed to this, National Socialism takes the position: the state directs the economy, the state is not there for business, business is there for the state.
Who controls the money? Who regulates? Who tells businesses what to pay? Who wants to tell businesses how much they can profit and tax based on profits?

Ah yes, of course, women's rights and the end to slavery those were all actually right-wing! Why did the government have to force those things to happen in real life then, brother? Why didn't the private sector release them without threat of violence from the government? Is it because your political philosophy doesn't comport with how it plays out in real life?

You can't claim that because right-wing ideology in a vacuum supports individual rights that you can take credit for things like ending slavery or giving women rights. Why is it when we apply the favored economic system of the right - capitalism - to real life, all of the rights of the individual from your political theory falls apart? Capitalists sure weren't happy letting those slaves go. The hierarchical structure of capitalism would have preferred voting to stay only within the ruling class - wealthy white men for the rest of time had the government not intervened. What you mean to say is, all your political theory x economic theory does is protect the rights of the in-group, with exploitation for everyone else.

Allowing corporations to influence government by injecting money in politics is what leads to corporatism - not the very existence of government.

Having monopolies now says that the government hasn't used their anti-trust powers in any meaningful fashion in decades.

Basically everything you just listed is at odds with every credible source anyone can find on the internet (just lmao at discounting all of the diverse information on the internet what you need is BOOKS). It only exists in your delusional non-practical application of theory.

Oh good a Mercatus study, I'm sure that will be a very fair and unbiased view of how regulations have impacted business. It's definitely not just a libertarian think tank who will back into the results they want. Hey I thought the internet was all lies bud, why doesn't this link count?
More evidence. Government fixes everything. They have been trained to give up everything to the government. The trade-offs, the corruption, and the cost is all worth it. Nothing can go wrong... no advocation for freedom at all, and strongly opposing those who speak for freedom
