| Since May 2009, the Movimento Libertario sent to various Italian politicians and political forces a paper on the Italian and international economic situation from the perspective of the Austrian School.
| |
| In this paper, the Movimento Libertario called on the Italian policy in a drastic reduction of its role in the economy.
| |
| The reduction of State hasn't been pursued through a drastic spending cuts and taxes, particularly those that impede the savings and the investments.
| |
| The reduction of taxation and public spending would lead automatically to a shifting of social relationship between savings, investment and consumption towards the former, thereby reducing greatly the time to return to a prosperous economy.
| |
| During depression each reduction of taxes or any interference that impedes the free market will stimulate healthy economic activity, conversely, any increase in taxes or other measures to further depress the economy.
| |
|
| |
| The Movimento Libertario believes that different measures were took, were differents from what stated above,<ref>[http://www.movimentolibertario.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4376:italia-tasse-sullimpresa-aumentate-in-tempi-di-crisi&catid=1:latest-news ''Italy, increase taxes on the enterprise in time of crisis!''] by Leonardo Facco.
