I would like to welcome Mr CV Wood, who was introduced to me by one of our FB members. I have been looking for someone to discuss economics with, and he's obviously knowledgeable. Even better, Wood is a Hayekian, while I'm a Keynesian, so let the debate begin! SJ, chime in of course.

Thank you...
I go a bit beyond Hayek but I'm indeed a fan, I've also read and studied, Adam Smith, Marx, Bastiat, Tocqueville, Mises, Friedman, Keynes and some others...but I think I can argue Austrian as good as anyone.

"Wood is a Hayekian, while I'm a Keynesian"
The results are IN!
You lost!

It would be a LOT better if they halved the music, and doubled the dialogue volume.
Just showing my age.
SOB!

As a welcome, here's a music video for you. SOPHIE FAROH? The name Sofia stems from ancient Grecian and denotes, wisdom. "Sophisticatedness". In Finland I only have seen or heard that name in one single context: as some kind of a code which denotes, "Russian agent". I almost got punched in the face in that particular "context".

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_democracyExcerpt: "It advocates for a peaceful, evolutionary transition of society from capitalism to socialism.[2]" So it is perfumed bravo sierra. " The Socialist Democrat money tree and money grows on."? Well have the government pay the taxes; "we do not need nuclear power because there is an abundance of electric power"; and that kind of thing. In Europe they call it populism; I call it a misuse of democratic liberty, for the nonintelligent.

To satisfy my curiosity, can you give me your opinion of Detlev Schlichter please?

I'm not familiar with Detlev, unfortunately, I googled him, read a little but maybe you can tell me what separates him from say Hayek, Rothbard or Friedman?
