The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality

The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality by Mises, Ludwig Von. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781467934831.

The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality by Austrian School economist and libertarian thinker Ludwig von Mises is an investigation into the psychological roots of the anti-capitalistic stance that is widespread in segments of the general population of the capitalist world. Von Mises suggests various reasons for this mentality, primarily his claim that free competition in the market economy allows no excuses of ones failures. Rather, he argues, it creates great incentive for ones desire for improvement and greater effort to succeed, as well as a greater reward for that success.
