Ah yes, what a good article; The one time the Brazilian Mises Institute admitted a leftist position in politics was right because it fixed a problem right-wing-economy politicians made it worse over the last decade.

One can genuinely laugh at how far they try to push a pro-huge-corporation view in the article, only to say the opposite two paragraphs later, blessing government regulations for fixing the economy.

Austrians like sound money. Backing your currency by a strong global currency that you can't print goes very much in that direction. It's akin to the US going back to the gold standard. I'm not sure what's "leftist" in that.

> they try to push a pro-huge-corporation view in the article, only to say the opposite two paragraphs later,

I didn't see any "pro-huge-corporation view" in the article. From your username I assume you read the original, not a translation. I might be wrong, and you can prove it by quoting the article if you want to have the last word - I'm not interested in continuing this particular thread.

I see nothing wrong with that. People should like ideas not politicians or institutions. I feel sorry for people who dislike a good action just because they disagree with the person or institution that created it.

That’s exactly his point - berating things because of their origins is this institute’s approach 99% of the time.
