Using deductive reasoning can you refute praxeology?
If not than…
Again using non-fallacious reasoning and with the foundation of praxeology could the Economic Calculation problem logically be refuted?
I ask because the concept seems extremely simple to me. The arguments alowed should be enough to explode fascialistic policies world wide.
When I read arguments against the austrian school they stumble of semantics or mechanic details without a fundamental understanding of how Austrian’s derive their conclusions. Worse, their counter arguments are generally based on obscure statistics which support nothing more then an opinion.
I could give you a statistic today which shows a correlation in the number of ice-cream sales to the number of homicides in New York. Why are statistics taken so seriously and why is logic ignored?
You’re forgetting one very simple thing: politics isn’t about logic–it’s about the sword/gun/whatever weapon makes you happy. IOW: the power to destroy. And no amount of apriori reasoning will convince the subliterate waste that is most politicians to give that up.
I think these are excellent questions. I think that it is clear that there a certainly aspects of each that are logically irrefutable, but there are also aspects of each that have been presented in a logically inconsistent manner. That is why it is necessary to participate in self-criticism and to be as rigorous as possible so that when the day comes where Praxeology is being considered as a solution to the many problems that society faces today, it will be ready to solve those problems rather than society having to keep repeating its failures…
