RE: My 5 favorite platforms to connect with other Anarchists and Libertarians — What are yours?
Very cool! Good luck in the elections. We had our elections in March but the Libertarian Party didn't get any seats in parliament... Such a shame.
Is it true that you have like 3 or 4 different capitalist parties in Holland?
Not that I know of. The biggest party is the 'liberal' party, who portray themselves as classical liberals, but are actually in favor of bigger government (in the form of the EU) and for maintaining the welfare state.
The Libertarian Party is obviously capitalist, but they didn't get any seats in parliament.
There is also a newer party, Forum voor Democratie (Forum for Democracy), who are in a sense more market oriented than most parties in the Netherlands. But they also stand for protectionism.
So the question is what you define as capitalist. More government means less capitalism ;-)
Absolutely. More precicely I was thinking of
libertarian parties. Looks like theres only 1 then.
Yep, although Forum voor Democratie is also somewhat classical liberal in some ways. But also a bit protectionist.
