I have always been fascinated by the subject of Socio-Economics. In general...this is a more humane approach to economics because it is based on social life (what Austrians call "human action").
So far, I have not found a major economic model on Socio-Economics. However, the best example I see has already been implemented and I guess that no one can deny its awesome results.
And that is the Social Market Economies that were officially born in Europe after WWII.

You mean Caesar??? WTF
Sphairon: You don't happen to be "Cesar", do you?
Heh. Judging by his previous post, evidently not.
Diminishing Marginal Utility - IT'S THE LAW!
Could you be more specific please? Which welfare state model do you mean (German? French? Scandinavian?) and what awesome results are you talking about?
Nothing makes much sense here.

First of all I did not call them welfare states.
Pick any country for your critique.

It is. Perhaps I'll let him remain briefly to be made a fool of, and then I'll ban him later on.
To darkness I condemn you...
Maybe I am a fool. Maybe I will get ban. But I think (respectfully) you are a greater fool yourself. If you ban me I guess I can open a new account whenever I wish. That is freedom in practice isn't it?? Maybe it is true; Libertarianism and Communism are to extremes that end up with the same results........totalitarianism. And you sir fit the perfect example. Enjoy your power to ban me and to ridicule me.

I hope you provide me with some amusement, silly clown. You haven't even the intellect to mask your identity.
I might lack the intellect to mask my identity; but you don’t fall behind, as you are inconsistent with your ideals and arrogant. A true example of a true libertarian.
Inconsistent by dealing effectively with trolls on private fora with rules? Not really. Now, are you going to meet the burden of proof as GS asked you to, or am I going to have to dispose of you prematurely?
Mr_Eco: First of all I did not call them welfare states.
Thats clear. I called them welfare states because they all practice redistribution of wealth and economic intervention (even if the extent is different)
And it's you who want to convince me the say, the German model of "social market economy" is the hottest thing since sliced bread and is preferable over a plain free market.
My point is precisely that a social market economy is better in the long run than a plain free market.
