Give me an example of one country that used Austrian economic policies to become prosperous. Maybe Somalia? The Somalians practice the strict individualism of Austrian economics, that's why they have such creative entrepreneurs like pirates, sex slaves, warlords, and mercenaries without big government beauracrats meddling in the private sector's affairs.
There's a reason every prosperous country in the world strikes a healthy balance between total laissez-faire capitalism and total state controlled top-down Soviet style communism. Stop drinking the Mises kool-aid.
