Austrian and Classical economics make the most sense to me, but it's hard to imagine any system working as hoped given corruption appears instantaneously. Warping the system you hoped for, into something you didn't. So I prefer to keep things at human scale. Less govt and limiters on their powers/ finances, a decentralized form of money, increased localism and small scale economies. This is probably the best we can hope for, then we can let the economists spend the next 50 years debating and making their charts.
To be honest I actually misread your question, I thought you asked what kind of economics I prefer, not what kind of economist I am. My answer was a polite way of saying, I don't care about economics much at all, besides on the small scale. I am not an economist, is actually my answer to your question. My financial takes are purely from an investors perspective, and somebody who is a student of financial history. I know of dialectic you're talking about, I was just giving a general answer as to what is more cogent from the limited well known schools of economic thought, and I like some of Hayek's ideas. There is a good podcast series on the Austrian school dialectic however, but I cannot remember where I listened to it.
basically john keynes and von hayek had different ways of getting to the new world order. von hayek called for a bottom up approach and keynes called for a top down approach. they both loved world government and were also eugenicists. they were also life long friends. the austrian school is controlled opposition to the keynesian school
Excellent discussion...
it's already been two decades that we've been under DARPA's "total information awareness"
great show. I was wondering what kind of economist parallel mike is. @parallelmike @parallelsystemsbroadcast

i agree on localization and decentralization. but dont be fooled by the fake austrian and classical vs Keynesian economics. its all a fake dialectic.
