So American liberalism and classical liberalism, they can have a fair amount in common.
My friend Jonah Goldberg, who writes for the Dispatch, for example, he says that because American founding is basically an expression of classical liberalism, an American conservative is somebody who protects the founding and therefore classical liberalism.
Marian Tupy: Classical liberalism and industrial revolution especially seem to be coterminous over the last 250 years or so.
I’m not saying I blame classical liberalism for that, but I’m not sure liberalism has solved that problem.
But I guess I wanted to ask you about Javier Milei here is a classical liberal libertarian who manages to actually win the presidency on the back of classical liberal ideas.
