I haven’t read any of the Austrians on economics but had you said that about the scientific method a week ago I would have let it go and assumed you were right. I have only dabbled a bit into the topic.

Coincidentally however, on 4th a rather prestigious Political Economist, visiting from the states, happened to come over to watch the US team lose. Not a man that anyone of sense would associate with the right, nor libertarians for that matter. There was no discussion of Austrians but he brought up the scientific method ( as practiced in economics) himself and he dismissed it as rubbish. So apparently the Austrians can get away with calling the scientific method witchcraft because it is not just them who think this. It may actually be a minor point in their favor. At least among economists.

Well, apparently you have missed it and I don’t feel the need to go through it all. Most of this is theoretical anyway, as I don’t see the US collapsing in the next couple of weeks.

But here is an idea. So far all you have done is disagree without offering any thing of substance.

Why don’t you demonstrate a little moral courage by telling us what you stand for and what you think is a better form of government?
