I make an assertion that is counter to Austrian orthodoxy (e.g., “malinvestments” necessitates irrational expectations).
Someone, sometimes someone as thoughtful as Esuric, presents an Austrian counterargument.
I rebut or at least cast skepticism.
The person, or onlooking cheerleaders, come to the conclusion that since I didn’t become a convert, then I must simply not have understood the argument.
Not believing in “higher-order goods,” for instance, doesn’t mean one doesn’t understand Austrian capital theory; it simply means there is disbelief in a subjective taxonomy proposed by Menger, et al.
Frankly, I don’t even care about any of this in particular, I’m more interested in hearing what varying thinkers you people have encountered and respect.
If any of you are reading what I write and belief me to be a dolt, then go for it.
I am part of the thread. I saw it progress. That is not how it worked at all. You did not portray Austrian theory correctly. I am not calling you an idiot (just a troll).
