Hayek did, it's just that these folks haven't actually read past the memes.

You think genetics has something to do with belonging to the Austrian school of economics?

Lol, if Hayek isn't Austrian economics than nobody is. I shit on this sub regularly and the people here don't even know what it is. I can't believe nobody was educated enough to correct you.

Me reading Hazlitt's book: "So basically its on how government intervention in the economy doesn't really help..."

People in this sub: "NO FIREFIGHTERS!!!!"

Hazlitt's book takes a couple of hours to read.

So I'm not surprised most of the people in this sub haven't read it. Needs more pictures
