I must confess I just had to look up voluntaryism. It appears to just be British Chicago school yeah? That’s definitely the side of the economic argument that needs more volume these days, but I can tell you in Ireland it just isn’t welcome. I studied an economics related course in smurfit and everything was about why the Chicago school were wrong. It was comical in a way, without anybody even proposing Chicago theories the lecturers posed these absurd caricature of their theories and then showed why they were wrong. It was just the enemy argument, like communism was in years past.

Oh you don't have to tell me, believe me I know. Barely anyone in this country is aware there's alternatives to democratic socialism. Most of them won't even admit this is democratic socialism.

You have more patience than me, my blood would be boiling. And yes, you're right, austrian economics in general is never properly adressed by MMT economists. They can't afford to.
