And the moral of the story is that Keynesians drink all the time but still get all the hot chicks! :mrgreen:

Um, you do realize that Keynes lost this rap debate, don't you? The producers/directors of this video are self-identified libertarians who advocate the Austrian economic model.

No shit?

Well in that case, booooooooom, it was awful, a hatchet job, a worthless piece of half truths and crap. :roll:

I liked it because it was well-produced and clever. Within the first minute I assumed both that Hayek would win, and the philosophical leanings of it's producers. But both men were clearly giants and brilliant, so I'm always curious as to what both had to say.

It's called being open minded, being able to see both sides of a debate, mind like a parachute...

You should try it sometime, Hayek did. :thumb:

Both giants? At least one of them is wrong.
