Exhibit A for why a lot of economics articles are poisonous and should be flagged for removal. Comments on this thread include lots of name calling and other inflammatory rhetoric that does not make for very good discussion. Also, people have pretty much already made up their minds about this stuff... Austrian True Believer types are not going to be swayed by being called weirdos, and the rest of us aren't going to be convinced by 'praxeology'.


Well, I've certainly learned a lot from this discussion. Although, I find myself agreeing with the guy who called them weirdos, the Austrian school, as it has been explained, does seem really weird to me.
